Ayre - Wish Upon a Scar [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

(Verse) Wake up, It’s cold in his room
Looks like dad didn't pay the bills
They burn their garbage in their yard they call their land fill

Scavenge for wood to keep alive
Still he goes to school, tries his best
But no water means no shower means he goes in a mess

He doesn’t look like the rest
Ran out of Axe to spray his chest
He gets teased, these kids are so merciless

Push him around like he’s worthless
Full of panic and nervousness
Before his mom married this prick, he was the coolest kid!

Can’t stand the way ruthless, useless
Pieces of shits get away with this
Snaps and chokes out a kid for messing with his shit

Now he’s the target of each assault
Puts his anger in every brawl
Still they try to take him out by jumping him in the stalls

Even his teacher’s looks down
His smile is still a frown
Tries to stand up but this city is pushing him down

Sadly, school is his getaway
Like all weekdays are holidays
To get away from an abusive step day who’s gone irate

(Chorus) I see you sweat, I know you ain’t got nothing left, you’re out of breath and you’re letting it go to your head. You don’t know hard, You’ve got no scars, You don’t have heart, So wish upon a star and be happy of who you are. X2

(Verse) Happy is only a state of mind
Something that can be hard to find
How could you be happy with what you see, man you must be blind

Some places are alright
Some people can be nice
But what happens to those kids who are forced to fight?

Feel like we got to act rude
Out here nice people are food
To get taken advantage of and straight up screwed

Ya’ll know what I’m talking bout
You either hustle, or you are devout
That’s all you can do in a poor neighborhood full of doubt

But it’s all made worse
When you’re afraid of being hurt
And in your house is a sleeping, eating, walking curse

I got tired of being called a bitch
By this piece of shit, good for nothing dick
So I fought back until I choked out the prick

Then he says he’s gonna take me out back
Teach me a lesson, whoop my ass
That’s what it took to get my mom to face the facts

Call me a faggot again
You can’t fix that with a quick amen
But I’ll fix it with my fists, and we can settle it like men

(Chorus) I see you sweat, I know you ain’t got nothing left, you’re out of breath and you’re letting it go to your head. You don’t know hard, You’ve got no scars, You don’t have heart, So wish upon a star and be happy of who you are. X2

(Chorus2) I see you bleed, I know you have no fight left, you’re out of breath and soon enough you may just be dead. You now know hard, you’ve now seen heart, hitting you from the start, so wish upon your scars and be happy of who you are

(Chorus2 & 1/2) I see you bleed, I know you have no fight left, you’re out of breath and soon enough you may just be dead. You now know hard, you’ve now seen heart, hitting you from the start, so wish upon your scars and be happy you aren’t fucking dead!
