Broken
Dean Josiah Cover, Simbiatu Ajikawo
Feeling broken and you don't exist
When you're feeling broken and you cannot fix it
Feeling broken and you don't exist
When you're feeling broken and you cannot fix it
What does it mean to be broken?
A wound is painfully open
The beauty is in the finding the darkest parts of the ocean
Deep waters in motion, the tide was coming in heavy
I always knew I was chosen to handle whatever chose me
Picking all of my poisons, abandoning my emotions
Questions got me feeling like I should never have spoken
Damn right I'm spillin', the narrative, they keep switchin'
All I wanted to do was uplift the women
You gotta move if you ain't backin' the vision
They wanna see you a victim and giving up on your mission
I been hittin' some lows and never tellin' a soul
You can have everything and nothing, still nobody knows
There's a reason why the doves will never fly with the crows
Chapters eventually closed, your friends will turn into foes
Everybody so obsessed with the CEO
She probably got the most troubles, that she'll never disclose
Dealing with the dark by taking the white to the nose
Poker face and now she'll continue in with the show
Scrutinize for freeing the truth about the system
All she wanted to do was uplift the women
Feeling broken and you don't exist
When you're feeling broken and you cannot fix it
Feeling broken and you don't exist
When you're feeling broken and you cannot fix it
What does it mean to be broken?
Feels that your light has been stolen
Can't recognize you are golden
And you don't see that you're loved
Smoking weed on your ones, isolating yourself
Am I even enough? Then you question yourself
Man, this week has been tough, been saying that for a year
How do I disappear? Can I hide from my fears?
Sometimes a feather can feel like a stone
When your soul weak, you can feel that shit in your bones
She was lonely, taking anyone to the home
Getting cozy, internal insecurities travelling so deep
We all go through our hardships
But no life books show knees to the carpet
And pray you're being guided by a force, so you can't sink
Look how far you've come and see you've only just started
You exist, you alive, you are deserving of life
You are a beacon of light, you are determined to fly
You have a journal inside, you have the power to write
You have the opportunity every day to decide, choose love
It might just blossom into a new love
But whatever happens, just know that you've won
Feeling broken and you don't exist
When you're feeling broken and you cannot fix it
Feeling broken and you don't exist
When you're feeling broken and you cannot fix-
Ain't no happiness in it
Fake smiles just to deal with all the pain you've been given
As a child, they don't tell you that your dreams can come into fruition
You never been to that place you envision
Sky gave you limits you had no choice but to accept
Forced into work to contribute to the profit of Britain
That sneeze'll be blessed, but the coffin'll kill 'em
It's the armageddon city, this shit might damage your soul
They won't take the weight of you when you can manage the load
Like they're just waiting to hear a fucking crack in your bones
Generational trauma you've had to deal with alone
No father, how do you become a man on your own?
Did the best that you could with the tools you were loaned
Didn't know how to break the mould and now you're raising a clone
Gives me comfort to believe you want the best for your seed
Wishful thinking, if the intentions don't align with the deed
And if what you hear contradicts what you read, war ready
They travel to this country for peace
Crabs in a barrel, your neighbour feeling the same shit
But he might screw you, if someone offers a payslip
No one ever told you your mind is not to be played with
No one ever taught you 'bout moderation and patience
Under all the eyes and the pressure and the scrutiny
Why is mental health a taboo in the Black community?
Feeling broken and you don't exist
When you're feeling broken and you cannot fix it
Feeling broken and you don't exist
When you're feeling broken and you cannot fix-
It shouldn't be a norm to live your life as a tragedy
To live your life in a state of confusion and agony
Promises you made reflect the promises they gave you
And all these harsh experiences don't reflect your age
No family to save you, no friends to aid you
Can't even speak English
so there's no-one to explain to
only God to pray to
They denied you of your hope, but you found a way through
That's a breakthrough
twenty-one, landed in London with hardly any funds
twenty-seven, tryna get back to being twenty-one
'Cause nothing's changed, still no money, but more things to pay for
So the blood pressure rises slowly, by the day
Work two jobs, just so rice is on the children's plate
Landlord tells you, "This is the last time you can be late"
Health issues that you try to suppress
But all your health issues are derived from stress
You tried your best, gave an arm and a leg
Only tears and a cold house is what you've been left with
Self-hate for the Black skin you were blessed with
Hard to believe there's something greater you were destined for
Prepping for, gave your life to others who didn't invest in yours
A broken soul, selected for God's plan
Everything will be what's it's meant to, when it's in God's hands
Feeling broken and you don't exist
When you're feeling broken and you cannot fix it
Feeling broken and you don't exist
When you're feeling broken and you cannot fix it
Feeling broken and you don't exist
When you're feeling broken and you cannot fix it
Feeling broken and you don't exist
When you're feeling broken and you cannot fix it
Feeling broken and you don't exist
Sich gebrochen fühlen und du existierst nicht
When you're feeling broken and you cannot fix it
Wenn du dich gebrochen fühlst und es nicht reparieren kannst
Feeling broken and you don't exist
Sich gebrochen fühlen und du existierst nicht
When you're feeling broken and you cannot fix it
Wenn du dich gebrochen fühlst und es nicht reparieren kannst
What does it mean to be broken?
Was bedeutet es, gebrochen zu sein?
A wound is painfully open
Eine Wunde ist schmerzhaft offen
The beauty is in the finding the darkest parts of the ocean
Die Schönheit liegt darin, die dunkelsten Teile des Ozeans zu finden
Deep waters in motion, the tide was coming in heavy
Tiefe Gewässer in Bewegung, die Flut kam schwer herein
I always knew I was chosen to handle whatever chose me
Ich wusste immer, dass ich auserwählt war, um mit allem umzugehen, was mich auswählte
Picking all of my poisons, abandoning my emotions
Wähle all meine Gifte, verlasse meine Emotionen
Questions got me feeling like I should never have spoken
Fragen lassen mich fühlen, als hätte ich nie sprechen sollen
Damn right I'm spillin', the narrative, they keep switchin'
Verdammt richtig, ich verschütte, die Erzählung, sie wechseln ständig
All I wanted to do was uplift the women
Alles, was ich tun wollte, war, die Frauen zu erheben
You gotta move if you ain't backin' the vision
Du musst dich bewegen, wenn du die Vision nicht unterstützt
They wanna see you a victim and giving up on your mission
Sie wollen dich als Opfer sehen und auf deine Mission verzichten
I been hittin' some lows and never tellin' a soul
Ich habe einige Tiefpunkte erreicht und nie einer Seele erzählt
You can have everything and nothing, still nobody knows
Du kannst alles und nichts haben, trotzdem weiß niemand Bescheid
There's a reason why the doves will never fly with the crows
Es gibt einen Grund, warum die Tauben niemals mit den Krähen fliegen werden
Chapters eventually closed, your friends will turn into foes
Kapitel schließen sich schließlich, deine Freunde werden zu Feinden
Everybody so obsessed with the CEO
Jeder ist so besessen von der CEO
She probably got the most troubles, that she'll never disclose
Sie hat wahrscheinlich die meisten Probleme, die sie nie preisgeben wird
Dealing with the dark by taking the white to the nose
Umgang mit der Dunkelheit, indem man das Weiße zur Nase nimmt
Poker face and now she'll continue in with the show
Pokerface und jetzt wird sie mit der Show weitermachen
Scrutinize for freeing the truth about the system
Kritisiert für die Freisetzung der Wahrheit über das System
All she wanted to do was uplift the women
Alles, was sie tun wollte, war, die Frauen zu erheben

What does it mean to be broken?
Was bedeutet es, gebrochen zu sein?
Feels that your light has been stolen
Es fühlt sich an, als wäre dein Licht gestohlen worden
Can't recognize you are golden
Kannst nicht erkennen, dass du golden bist
And you don't see that you're loved
Und du siehst nicht, dass du geliebt wirst
Smoking weed on your ones, isolating yourself
Weed alleine rauchen, dich selbst isolieren
Am I even enough? Then you question yourself
Bin ich überhaupt genug? Dann hinterfragst du dich selbst
Man, this week has been tough, been saying that for a year
Mann, diese Woche war hart, das sage ich schon seit einem Jahr
How do I disappear? Can I hide from my fears?
Wie kann ich verschwinden? Kann ich vor meinen Ängsten fliehen?
Sometimes a feather can feel like a stone
Manchmal kann eine Feder sich wie ein Stein anfühlen
When your soul weak, you can feel that shit in your bones
Wenn deine Seele schwach ist, kannst du das in deinen Knochen spüren
She was lonely, taking anyone to the home
Sie war einsam, nahm jeden mit nach Hause
Getting cozy, internal insecurities travelling so deep
Gemütlich werden, interne Unsicherheiten reisen so tief
We all go through our hardships
Wir alle durchleben unsere Schwierigkeiten
But no life books show knees to the carpet
Aber keine Lebensbücher zeigen Knie auf dem Teppich
And pray you're being guided by a force, so you can't sink
Und bete, dass du von einer Kraft geführt wirst, damit du nicht sinkst
Look how far you've come and see you've only just started
Schau, wie weit du gekommen bist und sieh, dass du gerade erst angefangen hast
You exist, you alive, you are deserving of life
Du existierst, du lebst, du hast ein Recht auf Leben
You are a beacon of light, you are determined to fly
Du bist ein Leuchtfeuer des Lichts, du bist entschlossen zu fliegen
You have a journal inside, you have the power to write
Du hast ein Tagebuch in dir, du hast die Kraft zu schreiben
You have the opportunity every day to decide, choose love
Du hast jeden Tag die Möglichkeit zu entscheiden, wähle Liebe
It might just blossom into a new love
Es könnte sich in eine neue Liebe verwandeln
But whatever happens, just know that you've won
Aber was auch immer passiert, wisse, dass du gewonnen hast
Feeling broken and you don't exist
Sich gebrochen fühlen und du existierst nicht
When you're feeling broken and you cannot fix it
Wenn du dich gebrochen fühlst und es nicht reparieren kannst
Feeling broken and you don't exist
Sich gebrochen fühlen und du existierst nicht
When you're feeling broken and you cannot fix-
Wenn du dich gebrochen fühlst und es nicht reparieren kannst
Ain't no happiness in it
Es gibt kein Glück darin
Fake smiles just to deal with all the pain you've been given
Falsche Lächeln, nur um mit all dem Schmerz umzugehen, den du bekommen hast
As a child, they don't tell you that your dreams can come into fruition
Als Kind sagen sie dir nicht, dass deine Träume Wirklichkeit werden können
You never been to that place you envision
Du warst noch nie an dem Ort, den du dir vorstellst
Sky gave you limits you had no choice but to accept
Der Himmel hat dir Grenzen gesetzt, die du akzeptieren musstest
Forced into work to contribute to the profit of Britain
Zur Arbeit gezwungen, um zum Profit von Großbritannien beizutragen
That sneeze'll be blessed, but the coffin'll kill 'em
Dieser Nieser wird gesegnet sein, aber der Sarg wird sie töten
It's the armageddon city, this shit might damage your soul
Es ist die Stadt der Apokalypse, dieser Scheiß könnte deine Seele beschädigen
They won't take the weight of you when you can manage the load
Sie werden deine Last nicht tragen, wenn du sie bewältigen kannst
Like they're just waiting to hear a fucking crack in your bones
Als würden sie nur darauf warten, einen verdammten Riss in deinen Knochen zu hören
Generational trauma you've had to deal with alone
Generationenübergreifendes Trauma, mit dem du alleine fertig werden musstest
No father, how do you become a man on your own?
Kein Vater, wie wirst du alleine ein Mann?
Did the best that you could with the tools you were loaned
Du hast das Beste getan, was du mit den dir geliehenen Werkzeugen konntest
Didn't know how to break the mould and now you're raising a clone
Wusstest nicht, wie man die Form bricht und jetzt ziehst du einen Klon groß
Gives me comfort to believe you want the best for your seed
Es tröstet mich zu glauben, dass du das Beste für deinen Samen willst
Wishful thinking, if the intentions don't align with the deed
Wunschdenken, wenn die Absichten nicht mit der Tat übereinstimmen
And if what you hear contradicts what you read, war ready
Und wenn das, was du hörst, dem widerspricht, was du liest, kriegsbereit
They travel to this country for peace
Sie reisen in dieses Land für Frieden
Crabs in a barrel, your neighbour feeling the same shit
Krebse in einem Fass, dein Nachbar fühlt den gleichen Scheiß
But he might screw you, if someone offers a payslip
Aber er könnte dich verarschen, wenn jemand ein Gehalt anbietet
No one ever told you your mind is not to be played with
Niemand hat dir je gesagt, dass dein Verstand nicht zum Spielen da ist
No one ever taught you 'bout moderation and patience
Niemand hat dich je über Mäßigung und Geduld unterrichtet
Under all the eyes and the pressure and the scrutiny

Can't even speak English
