Fifty Fifty Lyrics in English by Tedua, Ghali
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Fifty Fifty by Tedua from Italian to English.
Io e Ghali
Me and Ghali
Tedua roccia quanta pioggia può scalfirmi
Tedua, a rock, how much rain can scratch me?
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
La mia coccia, costa, costa, nostra, è NOS frà
My head, it costs, it costs, ours, it's NOS bro
Non ti mettere a scannare
Don't start fighting
Sporchi accordi presi in cortile
Dirty deals made in the courtyard
Per i miei, non perdonare
For my people, don't forgive
Vale a dire perseguire
That is to say, pursue
Sul beat il pit non sta al canile
On the beat, the pit isn't in the kennel
Quanto tempo passa e si insabbiano le notizie
How much time passes and the news gets buried
Scarcerano frà cancellano le ingiustizie
They release, bro, they cancel injustices
Non sei me, no, nemmeno in cento vite
You're not me, no, not even in a hundred lives
Hai voglia di stare a fare nomi?
Do you feel like naming names?
Snitchi i miei commenti, homies
You snitch on my comments, homies
No, mi onori
No, you honor me
Te frà non mentir poi
You, bro, don't lie then
Ancora forti fuori coi miei folli tori
Still strong outside with my crazy bulls
Tra la giungla la mia ciurma fa da pescatori per gli alligatori
In the jungle, my crew acts as fishermen for the alligators
Sono a riva al mare
I'm on the seashore
Tu non scimmiottare Mowgli o muori
Don't you ape Mowgli or you'll die
Money money so che li vuoi, li vuoi
Money money, I know you want it, you want it
Orange County vola al Schiphol Detroit
Orange County flies to Schiphol Detroit
Flow una tigre come ti riesce, riesce non t'intimidire (Tedua)
Flow like a tiger, how it succeeds for you, it succeeds, don't be intimidated (Tedua)
A letto vado sempre tardi
I always go to bed late
I soldi in tasca mi durano poco
The money in my pocket doesn't last long
Non so ancora comportarmi
I still don't know how to behave
Per me è come se fosse un gioco
For me, it's as if it were a game
Roccia scusa se ti incazzi
Rock, sorry if you get mad
Questi bianchi lo fanno a loro modo
These white people do it their way
E io non mi ritrovo
And I don't fit in
Tedua ogni weekend
Tedua every weekend
Alza un K d'idee
Raises a thousand ideas
A K servite?
A thousand served?
Assaggia le rime
Taste the rhymes
Se sei uno snitcher non mi si addice
If you're a snitch, it doesn't suit me
Lei mi sorride a te non lo dice
She smiles at me, she doesn't tell you
Hello! Puoi sentirmi?
Hello! Can you hear me?
Non sai quante cose ora avrei da dirti
You don't know how many things I'd have to tell you now
Fumo io, fumi te: fifty fifty
I smoke, you smoke: fifty fifty
Si credon dei ma noi siamo monoteisti
They think they're gods, but we're monotheists
Sono usciti i sogni dal cassetto
The dreams came out of the drawer
Perché l'ho tenuto aperto
Because I kept it open
Mamma mi dice stai attento
Mom tells me to be careful
A mettere il seme là dentro
About putting the seed in there
È presto ma certo
It's early but for sure
Guarda come si sta adesso
Look how we are now
Noi volevamo sì questo
Yes, we wanted this
Parlo di te in ogni testo
I talk about you in every lyric
Quando usciamo frà è cinema
When we go out, bro, it's a movie
Anche sotto i palazzi di chi ne ha
Even under the buildings of those who have
Il cielo no, non mi delinea
The sky no, it doesn't define me
Scendo sempre al capolinea
I always get off at the last stop
Non vedi la squadra che si allinea
Don't you see the team lining up?
Zombie stasera ho casa libera
Zombie, tonight I have an empty house
Veneziano fai il bravo dai girala
Venetian, be good, come on, roll it
Fumo e canto come Jigglypuff
I smoke and sing like Jigglypuff
A letto vado sempre tardi
I always go to bed late
I soldi in tasca mi durano poco
The money in my pocket doesn't last long
Non so ancora come comportarmi
I still don't know how to behave
Per me è come se fosse un gioco
For me, it's as if it were a game
Roccia scusa se ti incazzi
Rock, sorry if you get mad
Questi bianchi lo fanno a loro modo
These white people do it their way
E io non mi ritrovo
And I don't fit in
Tedua ogni weekend
Tedua every weekend
Alza un K d'idee
Raises a thousand ideas
A K servite?
A thousand served?
Assaggia le rime
Taste the rhymes
Se sei uno snitcher non mi si addice
If you're a snitch, it doesn't suit me
Lei mi sorride a te non lo dice
She smiles at me, she doesn't tell you

Did you like this lyrics translation?
scalfirmi — to scratch me / to affect me
Scalfirmi comes from the verb scalfir which means "to scratch" or "to graze". It's an interesting word because it's not commonly used in everyday conversation, making it stand out.
In the context of the song, Tedua uses it metaphorically when he says, "quanta pioggia può scalfirmi" (how much rain can scratch me). He's questioning how much adversity or negativity can truly affect him, implying resilience and strength against challenges. This metaphorical usage adds depth to the lyrics.
