Текст песни So Afraid (Janelle Monáe) с переводом

All the kids run around playing free and fun, while the dogs lap around the can

Falling down, climbing trees, swimming in the river, no life jacket on their

backs

Daughters sharpen their knives and they hunt for food, others watch their

children grow

Mothers going to work and they shake the hands of a corporate tycoon’s ghost

And I’m afraid (ahhhh)

I’m so afraid (ahhhh)

What if I lose?

Is what I think to myself

I’m fine in my shell

I’m afraid of it all, afraid of loving you

I’m a gift and a curse to the wilderness when the leaves only turn to brown

The birds fly high and they wink at all of the grandmothers on the ground

Rain pours down in the village dens, my cousins fetch for lunch

While I sit in my room writing letters to my church and things and such

'Cause I’m afraid (ahhhh)

I’m so afraid (ahhhh)

What if I lose?

Is what I think to myself

I’m fine in my shell

I’m afraid of it all, afraid of loving you

Cousins all in the creek

Ridin' high, write a zine

And the rain pours down, the ghetto dancin', yeah

I’m so afraid (ahhhh)

I’m so afraid (ahhhh)

What if I lose?

Is what I think to myself

I’m fine in my shell

I’m afraid of it all, afraid of loving you

I’m afraid, afraid of loving you

Cousins all in the creek

Ridin' high, write a zine

And the rain pours down, the ghetto dancin', yeah
