Ismael [English translation]

I was born in a snowstorm

I guess it was cold

There are no witnesses from that day

And I grew up quickly

From my childhood that was all

I was born already beaten

There was nowhere to run

No one dared go

You ran for cover, hid yourself

There is nothing here that can get you to understand

Let the past be forgotten

I lied carelessly, it's a built-in flaw

You can't put honor that doesn't exist on the line

I see a future where

I could be something big

So blow a kiss and fill my quota

You think out loud

And scream quietly

And hold your breath through the monologue

That was written for your inner voice

You sounded exactly like Ishmael

Do you remember Ishmael?

I am your Ishmael

You said "I long for 1997"

I said "Do you want to give up, is that your choice?"

I was born in a hospital

Where people mostly came to die

Who cares about your 90s?

It took 25 years of misunderstanding

It took 25 years to even come this far

I see a future where I could be something big

So blow a kiss and fill my quota

You think quietly and scream loudly

Memorizing the entire monologue

That was written for your inner voice

You sounded exactly like Ishmael

Do you remember Ishmael?

I am your Ishmael
