Telefonate Lyrics in English by Tedua, Izi
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Telefonate by Tedua from Italian to English.
Uh, uh
Uh, uh
(Gang, gang, gang)
(Gang, gang, gang)
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
(Gang, gang, gang, gang)
(Gang, gang, gang, gang)
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Baby non ho perso un pezzo di me
Baby, I haven't lost a piece of myself
Ben più, di più, però ho più da dire
Much more, even more, but I have more to say
Il dolore avvolge, a volte
Pain envelops, sometimes
E porge l'altra guancia, no ai porci della finanza
And turns the other cheek, no to the financial pigs
Sai quanta? Acqua sotto ai ponti deve ancora venire
Do you know how much? Water under the bridge still has to come
Roccia per scalfire, una roccia occorre una tempesta
To scratch a rock, a rock needs a storm
Che sia funesta, come l'ira di Achille
May it be fatal, like Achilles' wrath
Chi si è espresso ha reso un'idea
Whoever expressed themselves conveyed an idea
Sono riemerso in superficie, finendo l'apnea
I resurfaced, ending the apnea
No, non appena avrò una motocross, la userò
No, as soon as I have a motocross, I'll use it
Su di una duna della luna
On a dune of the moon
Chi trova la zona non trova un tesoro
Whoever finds the zone doesn't find a treasure
Chi trova un tesoro, se non torna in zona
Whoever finds a treasure, if they don't return to the zone
Non trova perdono
Doesn't find forgiveness
So che siamo nati dalle costole ma di conseguenza non so
I know we were born from ribs but consequently I don't know
Come mai venga l'odio e l'istinto
Why hatred and the instinct come
Di far di tutta l'erba un fascio
To lump everyone together
O cercare il pelo nell'uovo per quello che faccio
Or to nitpick for what I do
Mi chiama per fare soldi, good mornin'
He calls me to make money, good mornin'
Tedua tu corri via dagli infami
Tedua, you run away from the scumbags
Fammi fare le mie telefonate
Let me make my calls
A te che ne rimane
What's left for you?
Retate per delle ettate
Raids for hectares
Eh, Izeh, Izeh, no no
Eh, Izeh, Izeh, no no
Da noi mancava sempre il pane
For us, bread was always missing
Mancava dentro al piatto e lo dovevo disegnare
It was missing from the plate and I had to draw it
Matite, fogli A4, davo forma alla mia vita, sì
Pencils, A4 sheets, I gave shape to my life, yeah
Sì, come sul palco, come quando si è felici, sì
Yeah, like on stage, like when you're happy, yeah
Sto con la mia 'Gang Shit', sto con la mia 'Gang Shit'
I'm with my "Gang Sh*t", I'm with my "Gang Sh*t"
Sopra quell'Enjoy rossa che sfreccia ai centoventi
On that red Enjoy that speeds at one hundred twenty
Con Tedua, Bresh e Nolan sorvoliamo le correnti
With Tedua, Bresh and Nolan we fly over the currents
Sei giù con i miei testi da un pochino e te li segni
You've been down with my lyrics for a while and you mark them down
Come soldi da dare, come assegni, come impegni che non hai
Like money to give, like checks, like commitments you don't have
Te l'inventi lì sul momento, non dire cose se poi non sai
You invent it on the spot, don't say things if you don't know
Non far lo stronzo no, non ti sento
Don't be an a**hole, no, I don't hear you
Non ho sentito mani dall'alto, sì, fino a quando non ero pronto
I didn't feel hands from above, yeah, until I was ready
Non stavo sobrio, manco un secondo
I wasn't sober, not even for a second
E che ero troppo pronto già al pronto soccorso
And that I was already too ready at the emergency room
So che siamo nati dalle costole ma di conseguenza non so
I know we were born from ribs but consequently I don't know
Come mai venga l'odio e l'istinto
Why hatred and the instinct come
Di far di tutta l'erba un fascio
To lump everyone together
O cercare il pelo nell'uovo per quello che faccio
Or to nitpick for what I do
Mi chiama per fare soldi, good mornin'
He calls me to make money, good mornin'
Tedua tu corri via dagli infami
Tedua, you run away from the scumbags
Fammi fare le mie telefonate
Let me make my calls
A te che ne rimane
What's left for you?
Retate per delle ettate
Raids for hectares
