Lucifero Lyrics English Translation by Kid Yugi
From the disgust, the first morning star arises
Lucifer as a child, the prince, the dolphin
The sins of the saint, the virtues of the assassin
Here the air is heavy, it will shatter the window
Balance the pillows, build me a little fortress
The end of a great king brings the empire to decline
I smoke like a chimney, too much flesh around the soul
I don’t feel anyone really close to me
You kiss me on the lips, sign the venom
Now that my hugs remind you of the cilice
Programmed to surrender, silicon in the veins
I call myself a failure while they shout prodigy outside
I’ll trample my enemies, use them as a springboard
A moment of light is enough, I burn like a roll of film
Now that the way I humble myself has become profitable
Cry after cry, line after line
But this is not skin, they are pieces of a fetish
When I grope in the dark, hold me if I stumble
White fly, black swan feathers
As much as I clean inside, there’s evil in me
Now that every word of yours weighs on me like a boulder
And your sweetest look remains stern
The evil that consumes me cannot be benign
Shoot me thoroughly, defuse the bomb
I don’t do it for fame, I don’t want prestige
Not even for money, take back the advance
I don’t do it for women, to seem cooler to them
I don’t rap for fashion, I won’t be the last cry
It’s not about ego, I won’t turn haughty
It’s not street stuff, the more I grow, the more it disgusts me
I don’t do it for fans, I don’t need cheers
I don’t want to change anything, the sky will remain gray
It’s not for recognition, fuck every sacrifice
I don’t do it for diva, Kid Yugi anti-idol
I don’t do it to save you, I’m certainly not that type
I don’t think I’m saving myself, I’m not that stupid
I don’t want any grace, I don’t yearn for paradise
I have no vision, I always remain undecided
I don’t do it for respect, to seem bad
If I go in now, this won’t be served
I don’t do it for myself, it’s not selfish
It’s not for a friend of mine, to tell him we won
It’s not even for my family, to seem like a good son
I don’t do it for status, to seem richer
I don’t want to hear applause for two bullshit I wrote
To receive an award and be part of the mechanism
No protagonism, I’m a shy boy
I’m a slave to substances that kill you over time
Don’t put me aside, there’s a risk I might collapse
It’s an open space prison, yet I don’t escape
The pain was atrocious, now it’s just an annoyance
The sword that hit me is now as big as a pin
Of infinite wealth, only the chest remains
From the last supper, only the appetite remains
From the last brawl, even the bruise is gone
When a hero falls, only the myth remains
A few frames from the director, half a line from the poet
The philosopher’s form, the musician’s disc
The genius’s formula, the video of the attack
The shadow of what I live, the biography of the villain
Lucifer
