Motivo Lyrics in English by Tedua, Chris Nolan
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Motivo by Tedua from Italian to English.
(Come on, Chris
Come on, Chris
Scendi pure
Go ahead and come down
20-20, Vita Vera Mixtape
20-20, Vita Vera Mixtape
Ok ok, T-E-D, T-E-D)
Ok ok, T-E-D, T-E-D
Scuoti, muovi su di me, culi grossi dentro al club
Shake, move on me, big a**es in the club
Vedo thotthies per i frè, spero mi copri dai flash
I see thotties for the bros, I hope you cover me from the flashes
Certe notti noti le differenze tra me e te
Some nights you notice the differences between me and you
Tu non ti sai divertire, lo fai solo per apparire
You don't know how to have fun, you only do it to appear
Pochi a fare i buoni finché giri con gli stolti
Few act good as long as you hang out with fools
Nel block ne ho un po' che non sono risorti
In the block I have some who haven't risen again
One shot nel box e indoor come da bambocci
One shot in the box and indoor like kids
In strada assieme ai Cepparotti, c'hai i problemi e c'hai cerotti
On the street with the Cepparottis, you have problems and you have bandages
Lo sapevi che non fotti per me
You knew you don't f*ck with me
Di frè GE, non c'è padroni (Pah-pah)
Of bros GE, there are no masters (Pah-pah)
Sanno tutti su di noi e che siamo peccatori
Everyone knows about us and that we're sinners
Con più fiori dei fiorai e canne dei pescatori
With more flowers than florists and rods than fishermen
Non posso più avere un motivo diverso al mattino
I can't have a different reason in the morning anymore
Un pretesto per non star su
An excuse not to be up
Mi sveglio, mi giro nel letto, il cuscino ben stretto, ma manchi tu
I wake up, I turn in bed, the pillow held tight, but I miss you
Nel comodino ho un cassetto, io non dico che aspetto e resto in sbatti giù
In the nightstand I have a drawer, I don't say I wait and stay down in a daze
Però il nascondiglio del ferro, non aprirlo
But the hiding place of the iron, don't open it
Ti avverto, leva il dito al grilletto, non fare 'boom'
I warn you, take your finger off the trigger, don't go "boom"
Bitch è una fiction, la tua vita non è un film
B*tch, it's a fiction, your life isn't a movie
La mia Bic, ti ho già scritto, fa da Pixar e Dreamworks
My Bic, I've already written to you, acts as Pixar and Dreamworks
Simsalabim, ricompaio ricco, bingo
Simsalabim, I reappear rich, bingo
Stringo cinque col dinero ad un fra' nero, non è Ringo
I high-five with the money to a black bro, it's not Ringo
People dalla street come tigri
People from the street like tigers
Tu con chi te la tiri
Who do you show off with?
La McQueen sull'Amiri siamo imperativi
The McQueen on the Amiri, we're imperative
In TV o radio danno Mario per spacciato
On TV or radio they give Mario up for lost
Il mio rimario più datato è stato tagliato al dettaglio
My oldest rhyme book was cut in detail
E dato al palo al piano di qualche palazzo strano
And given to the post on the floor of some strange building
Poi l'han portato in un altro, arricchito ed investito sull'album
Then they took it to another, enriched and invested in the album
Che tanto, i tossici lo ascolteranno da Spoti craccato
Because anyway, the junkies will listen to it from cracked Spotify
E diranno 'i soldi a giorni mi arriveranno'
And they'll say "the money will arrive in a few days"
Non posso più avere un motivo diverso al mattino
I can't have a different reason in the morning anymore
Un pretesto per non star su
An excuse not to be up
Mi sveglio, mi giro nel letto, il cuscino ben stretto, ma manchi tu
I wake up, I turn in bed, the pillow held tight, but I miss you
Nel comodino ho un cassetto, io non dico che aspetto e resto in sbatti giù
In the nightstand I have a drawer, I don't say I wait and stay down in a daze
Però il nascondiglio del ferro, non aprirlo
But the hiding place of the iron, don't open it
Ti avverto, leva il dito al grilletto, non fare 'boom'
I warn you, take your finger off the trigger, don't go "boom"

Did you like this lyrics translation?
bambocci — dummies / puppets
Bambocci literally translates to "dummies" or "puppets," often referring to naive or inexperienced young people. It's a somewhat archaic and playful term, making it stand out.
In the context of the song, Tedua uses it to describe a situation where people are acting like naive kids, perhaps implying they are easily manipulated or lack real-world experience, especially when he says "One shot nel box e indoor come da bambocci" (One shot in the box and indoors like dummies). This word adds a unique flavor to the street narrative.
