数十年苦行僧 (数十年苦行僧)
Decades as a wandering monk,
心中有指明灯
In my heart, there shines a guiding light.
(Oh) 不曾见同行人
(Oh) I've never seen a fellow traveler,
世人都笑看我吃下的苦
The world just laughs at the hardships I endure.
浮躁又彷徨还不亦乐乎
Restless and lost, yet is it not a joy?
数十年苦行僧 (数十年苦行僧)
Decades as a wandering monk,
心中有指明灯
In my heart, there shines a guiding light.
不曾见同行人
I've never seen a fellow traveler.
世人都吃不下我吃的苦
The world can't bear the burdens I carry.
我只身在山顶不亦乐乎
Here I stand alone at the mountain peak, yet is it not a joy?
(Oh) Leave all the fame, leave all the fake
(Oh) Leave all the fame, leave all the fake
鱼龙混杂的世界笑我醉
In this mixed-up world, they laugh as I drown
Leave all the fame, leave all the fake
Leave all the fame, leave all the fake
清醒的人们却还在装睡
Yet the awake ones still pretend to sleep
Leave all the fame, leave all the fake
Leave all the fame, leave all the fake
我把这固有的枷锁打碎
I shatter these chains that bind me tight
Leave all the fame, leave all the fake
Leave all the fame, leave all the fake
管他们谁又是谁
Who cares about who's who?
Now keeping it moving (yeah, yeah)
Now keeping it moving (yeah, yeah)
Just keeping it moving (yeah, yeah)
Just keeping it moving (yeah, yeah)
Just keeping it moving
Just keeping it moving
Moving fast, yeah, moving past, yeah
Moving fast, yeah, moving past, yeah
You gon laugh, you going sad
You gon laugh, you going sad
You going mad, yeah
You going mad, yeah
Oh, I did it, oh, I did it
Oh, I did it, oh, I did it
他们理解不了, so they all hate it
They can't understand, so they all hate it
愚钝的眼光怎能看得见我
How can dull eyes ever see me
点燃你们永远熄不灭的那一团火, I burn
Ignite that everlasting fire within you, I burn
(Yeah, yeah) 抬起头来等著看吧
(Yeah, yeah) Lift your head up and watch
别再故意装聋作哑 (yeah, yeah)
Don't pretend to be deaf and mute anymore (yeah, yeah)
我会改变游戏玩法
I'll change the way the game is played
数十年苦行僧 (数十年苦行僧)
Decades of a wandering monk (decades of a wandering monk)
心中有指明灯
A guiding light resides in my heart
(Oh) 不曾见同行人
(Oh) I've never seen a fellow traveler
世人都笑看我吃下的苦
The world laughs at the pain I've swallowed
浮躁又彷徨还不亦乐乎
Restless and uncertain, yet I find joy in it
数十年苦行僧 (数十年苦行僧)
Decades of a wandering monk (decades of a wandering monk)
心中有指明灯
A guiding light resides in my heart
不曾见同行人
I've never seen a fellow traveler
世人都吃不下我吃的苦
The world cannot bear the pain I've tasted
我只身在山顶不亦乐乎
Alone on the mountain peak, how happy I feel
(Oh) Leave all the fame, leave all the fake
(Oh) Leave all the fame, leave all the fake
鱼龙混杂的世界笑我醉
In a world of mixed fish and dragons, they laugh at my drunkenness
Leave all the fame, leave all the fake
Leave all the fame, leave all the fake
清醒的人们却还在装睡
The sober ones still pretend to be asleep
Leave all the fame, leave all the fake
Leave all the fame, leave all the fake
我把这固有的枷锁打碎
I shatter these inherent shackles
Leave all the fame, leave all the fake
Leave all the fame, leave all the fake
管他们谁又是谁
Who cares who’s who
Now keeping it moving (yeah, yeah)
Now keeping it moving (yeah, yeah)
Just keeping it moving (yeah, yeah)
Just keeping it moving (yeah, yeah)
Just keeping it moving
Just keeping it moving
Moving fast, yeah, moving past, yeah
Moving fast, yeah, moving past, yeah
You gon laugh, you going sad
You gon laugh, you going sad
You going mad, yeah
You going mad, yeah
Oh, I did it, oh, I did it
Oh, I did it, oh, I did it
他们理解不了, so they all hate it
They can't understand, so they all hate it
愚钝的眼光怎能看得见我
How can dull eyes ever see me
点燃你们永远熄不灭的那一团火, I burn
Ignite that everlasting fire within you, I burn
(Yeah) 抬起头来等著看吧
(Yeah) Lift your head and wait to see
别再故意装聋作哑
Stop pretending to be deaf and mute on purpose
我会改变游戏玩法
I will change the way the game is played
数十年苦行僧
Decades as a wandering monk
心中有指明灯
With a guiding light in my heart
