Oasis : Live Forever

Maybe I don't really wanna know
How your garden grows, 'cos I just want to fly
Lately, did you ever feel the pain?
In the morning rain as it soaks you to the bone

Maybe I just want to fly, I want to live, I don't want to die
Maybe I just want to breathe, maybe I just don't believe
Maybe you're the same as me, we see things they'll never see
You and I, we're gonna live forever

Maybe I don't really wanna know
How your garden grows 'cos I just want to fly
Lately, did you ever feel the pain?
In the morning rain as it soaks you to the bone

Maybe I will never be all the things that I wanna be
Now is not the time to cry, now's the time to find out why
I think you're the same as me, we see things they'll never see
You and I, we're gonna live forever

Maybe I don't really wanna know
How your garden grows, 'cos I just want to fly
Lately, did you ever feel the pain?
In the morning rain as it soaks you to the bone

Maybe I just wanna fly, wanna live but don't want to die
Maybe I just wanna breathe, maybe I just don't believe
Maybe you're the same as me, we see things they'll never see
You and I are gonna live forever
We're gonna live forever

Gonna live forever

It is really hard to translate it properly, I mean, with all the slang and stuff. For example, whats the translation of "volabas"?
you flew? its the first thing that came to mind, but it also depends on its context.

Let me see, there's too many to pick from but I'll post one I like:
Artist: Dilated Peoples
Album: Neighborhood Watch
Title: Marathon


Make-Make-Make-em-Make-em clap to this
To show our appreciation for your support
Make-Make-Make-em-Make-em clap to this
Thank you DJs

Dilated!
Clap your hands! (x6)

[Evidence]
Yo, first up, I stay updated
Stay in the zone, and no question, stay "Dilated"
Understand, I exercise patience (right, right)
Respect my path, 'cause the road, these cats paved it (set it off)
Now that we've got that straight, it's time to move on
I don't train for sprints, I train for marathons
A long haul, we're built for this
It's proven, every year, more people cop our shxt
The point I'm getting at, we're building an army
Couldn't thank 'em enough, for real, I feel strongly
Right now, we're parked in a comfortable spot
By 2004, we're out to own the whole lot (Out for the top!)
To settle for less, the short change
So we keep our heads with us, as there's more to gain
And with, war is pain, so we roll the dice
It's all for the love, but some pay the ultimate price (check it out y'all)

Chorus:
[Group of singers]
Yo, they go off when they go on
On and on, on and on (Evidence: Marathon)
Pace yourself so you can face yourself
Run hard, you really only race yourself
Yo, they go off when they go on
On and on, on and on (Evidence: Marathon)
But we don't run from shxt, we run to it
Might run over your shit or run through it

[Rakaa]
I crack my own tooth, man, rap's a tool
Just to spit, crowns will leave your head wrapped with jewels
Respect that, even if you don't respect that
Label politics are just a minor setback
As long as we're willing and the heart is still in it
In the marathon, the artists will win it
Even though they want me to bite my tongue
Where I'm comin' from it's like "Fxck that, I'll still win it"
The long run separates the weak and strong one
Never underestimate how deep the songs run
[Rakaa and Group of singers]
Pace yourself so you can face yourself
Run hard, you really only race yourself, yo
[Rakaa]
Clap your hands, your hands you clap
Expansion Team rap then expand the map
With endurance, intellect, cardiovascular
Stamina, Rakaa's a party flow master like this!

Chorus

[Rakaa]
I'm like Axel when they kill Mike for the bearer bonds (???)
Driven to fight, livin' in the marathon
Some can't carry on, they're tired or feel ill
But in the end, real soldiers are still will
Sometimes, it's just spectators and gladiators
Same party, next year, haters congratulate us
To Buddy Princess and Jalen, congratulations
This year, there's less funerals than graduations

[Evidence]
Yo, pace myself, 'cause sagas continue
Standing ovations, Dilated blows up every venue
A new era, placed first, style pursuing
The shoe fits? (Wear it), it's based on you and
Your off beat DJ
Anything he play
Sounds like Babu pulled the plug with no delay
This homestretch
I've saved my last breath (breathing noise)
I push full throttle, no rest till nothing's left
It's the marathon

Chorus

Clap your hands (x5)

Check it
Expansion Team forever
and the, Alchemist

Well there is one line that just popped up in my mind from one of my favourite songs.

By Modest Mouse - "The Good Times Are Killing Me" (name of the song is actually the line )

There is also one by John Lennon - Imagine. It goes something like this:

"Imagine there's no heaven, its easy if you try,
No hell bellow us, above us only sky,
Imagine all the people living for today,

Imagine there is no country, it isnt hard to do,
Nothing to kill or die for, no religion too,
Imagine all the people living life in peace."

"You may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one.
I hope some day you'll join us and the [world'll be one]."

Sounds like john lennon was a socialist, but what do I care, good song.


There is one by A Perfect Circle too:

"Powere is power, the law of the land
Those living for death will die by their own hand,

"Life's no ordeal if you come to terms,
Reject the system dictating the laws,
[for] anti human sensation of arms production
to Hasten this nation towards its destruction

Its your choice, your choice, your choice,
peace or anihalation..."

This is one is closer to anarchism I think, but again good lyrics hehe.

I'm neither socialist, nor anarchist by the way. :P

Another from my favorites


Quote:
Artist: The Who
Titlle: Teenage Wasteland

Out here in the fields
I fought for my meals
I get my back into my living
I don't need to fight
To prove I'm right
I don't need to be forgiven

Don't cry
Don't raise your eye
It's only teenage wasteland

Sally ,take my hand
We'll travel south crossland
Put out the fire
Don't look past my shoulder
The exodus is here
The happy ones are near
So let's get together
Before we get much older

Teenage wasteland
It's only teenage wasteland
Teenage wasteland
Oh..yeah
Teenage wasteland
They're all wasted
