Translation #24541

I'm gonna make my own way,
I'm gonna head downtown,
Walk around, settle down,
Find me a proper drink.
Don't need a helmet
To get me through life,
I walk across the water,
Blame it on foolish pride.

Lifting me up,
Tearing me down,
All you give me is indecision
the classic run-around.
Bringing me higher,
Keeping me whole,
Now I feel like I'm living
Living in a Dust Bowl.
Nitafuata njia yangu,
Nitaenda mjini,
Nitaenda huku na huku, nitulie,
Nipe kinywaji poa.
Sihitaji ulinzi,
Ili niishi,
Ninatembea juu ya maji,
Ni kwa sababu ya kiburi.

Unaninyanyua,
Unanibwaga chini,
Mbona kusitasita
huku na huku.
Unaninyanyua juu,
Unanibembeleza,
Sasa mimi n'naishi
Katika Nchi Kame.
