Paroles et traduction Daniel Caesar - TOO DEEP TO TURN BACK

TOO DEEP TO TURN BACK

Pa, pa, da pa
Pa, pa, da pa, pa
Pa, pa, da pa (Oooh, oooh)
Pa, pa, da pa (hey)
Pa, pa, da pa, pa
Pa, pa, da pa
Ooh, ooh
Pa, pa, da, pa
So what's the price?
We're like mosquitoes to light, in a sense
I feed off bio-luminescence
Love and intent
So it's a quick fix
What else does life have to give but the pain
Generated inside our own brains?
It's a sick game, yeah
Submit to me, come get down on one knee
I'm your savior and I'll give you everything that you need
(That you need)
Submit to me, come get down on one knee
I'm your savior and I'll give you everything that you need
Pa, pa, da, pa
Blaspheming the spirit
I just don't want to hear it, too deep
What I've sown I'll continue to reap
I'll earn my keep
It was all good intentions
Did I forget to mention? My God
Just tryna get money with my dogs
Is that so wrong?
Submit to me, come get down on one knee
I'm your savior and I'll give you everything that you need
(That you need)
Submit to me, come get down on one knee
I'm your savior and I'll give you everything that you need
Lately you been on a wave
Seen you lit up in the place
Sometimes you're sad, I see it on your face
I can tell you're not okay
I know you're only seeking out the beauty
In fulfilling your duty
The answers it seems
Are inside your own dreams
Ooooh, oooh, oooh (Oooh, oooh, oooh)
Good God, Jehovah, what's this I see?
My mortality's staring back at me
Niggas think I'm scared
Niggas think I'm a bitch
But I ain't come prepared and I ain't know what this is
I've slept like Jacob, a rock for a pillow
Run swift like Elijah, away from the middle
Seen the world, overindulged maybe a little
But now your boy's up, and I'm fit as a fiddle
Oh Lord, Jehovah, what's this I see?
Bourgeoisie tryna silence me
They don't know what I've been through
Don't know what I pree'd
Seeing shit that you see up in your TV screen
Follow me to salvation
Your mind still 'pon plantations
The shepherd, holds information
It gives it out as it's taken
Yeah, yeah

TOO DEEP TO TURN BACK

Pa, pa, da pa
Pa, pa, da pa, pa
Pa, pa, da pa (Oooh, oooh)
Pa, pa, da pa (hey)
Pa, pa, da pa, pa
Pa, pa, da pa
Ooh, ooh
Pa, pa, da, pa
So what's the cost?
We're like moths drawn to a flame, in a way
I feed off your radiance
Your love and your intention
So it's a quick fix
What else does life offer but the pain
Created within our own minds?
It's a cruel game, yeah
Submit to me, come kneel before me
I'm your savior and I'll provide everything you desire
(That you desire)
Submit to me, come kneel before me
I'm your savior and I'll provide everything you desire
Pa, pa, da, pa
Blaspheming the spirit
I just don't want to hear it, it's too late
What I've sown, I'll continue to reap
I'll earn my keep
It was all good intentions
Did I forget to mention? My God
Just tryna make money with my friends
Is that so wrong?
Submit to me, come kneel before me
I'm your savior and I'll provide everything you desire
(That you desire)
Submit to me, come kneel before me
I'm your savior and I'll provide everything you desire
Lately you've been on a high
Seen you shining bright in the crowd
Sometimes you're down, I see it in your eyes
I can tell you're not alright
I know you're only seeking the beauty
In fulfilling your purpose
The answers it seems
Lie within your own dreams
Ooooh, oooh, oooh (Oooh, oooh, oooh)
Good God, Jehovah, what is this I see?
My mortality stares back at me
People think I'm afraid
People think I'm weak
But I wasn't prepared and I didn't understand what this is
I've slept like Jacob, a rock for my pillow
Ran swift like Elijah, away from the chaos
Seen the world, overindulged maybe a little
But now your boy's up, and I'm fit as a fiddle
Oh Lord, Jehovah, what is this I see?
The elite try to silence me
They don't know what I've been through
Don't know what I've seen
Seeing things you only see on your TV screen
Follow me to salvation
Your mind still 'pon plantations
The shepherd, holds the knowledge
It gives it out as it's taken
Yeah, yeah
