Текст и перевод песни SKY-HI - Stray Cat

Stray Cat

Yo, ホコリまみれで失礼
三日月が照らした風景
人気の無いベンチで休憩
生きながらえた今日は Good day

帰る場所なんて最初からこちとら求めちゃないよ
守りたい物は自由と責任とプライド

平穏に足払い
どんな色にも馴染まない
うかつに俺の前を横切れば死神に橋渡し

居場所も食いぶちも一人で掴んできたウォーリアーさ
孤独もちゃんと向き合えばいつのまにか相棒になった

媚びるくらいならハナから絡まないさ
Stray cat, stray cat, stray cat, stray cat
餌もらって笑ってるガラじゃないな
Stray cat, stray cat, stray cat, stray cat

I just gotta be myself
傷を舐め合って
馴れ合いの安定
軽くツバ吐いて

I just gotta be myself
愛想振りまいて
尻尾振りゃしないぜ
I just gotta be myself, yeah

動く時計
黒色は闇夜に良く溶ける
風の呼ぶ声
それだけを頼りに歩こうぜ
飢えをしのぐ 残飯、泥水のフルコース

自分が自分であることを誇る為にまた爪を研ぐ
甘い言葉で近づいてくる奴は噛んじまった
社会に飼われた人間に更に飼われた所で何になんだ Ha

もう時間だ 鳴き声ボリュームアップして出発
着いてきたい？やめなよ冗談
首輪がついてるぜお嬢さん

媚びるくらいならハナから絡まないさ
Stray cat, stray cat, stray cat, stray cat
餌もらって笑ってるガラじゃないな
Stray cat, stray cat, stray cat, stray cat

I just gotta be myself
傷を舐め合って
馴れ合いの安定
軽くツバ吐いて

I just gotta be myself
愛想振りまいて
尻尾振りゃしないぜ
I just gotta be myself, yeah

生きてるか生かされてるか
歩いてくか歩かされてるか
自分の明日は自分で選べるさ
一体誰が俺を殺せるか？

強さってなんだ 愛ってなんだ
誰かが泣いたら誰か笑った
優しさも時に刃
誰かが決めた 豊かさの価値観
One time for your mind
俺が戦う意味なら簡単
不条理な不透明なこの世界へのアンサー

媚びるくらいならハナから絡まないさ
Stray cat, stray cat, stray cat, stray cat
餌もらって笑ってるガラじゃないな
Stray cat, stray cat, stray cat, stray cat

I just gotta be myself
傷を舐め合って
馴れ合いの安定
軽くツバ吐いて

I just gotta be myself
愛想振りまいて
尻尾振りゃしないぜ
I just gotta be myself, yeah

Stray Cat

Yo, Covered in dust,失礼
Crescent moon-lit landscape
Resting on a deserted bench
Surviving another day is a Good day

I never sought a place to belong in the first place
My treasures are freedom, duty, and pride

Peacefulness trips me up
I don't fit in any colour
Carelessly cross my path and I'll introduce you to the Grim Reaper

I'm a warrior who seized his own place and sustenance
If you face loneliness head-on, it eventually becomes your ally

I'd rather keep my distance than grovel
Stray cat, stray cat, stray cat, stray cat
I'm not one to grin and bear it
Stray cat, stray cat, stray cat, stray cat

I just gotta be myself
Licking my wounds
Complacent stability
Spitting casually

I just gotta be myself
Faking friendliness
I won't wag my tail
I just gotta be myself, yeah

The clock ticks
Black blends well with the night
The wind's beckoning voice
I'll follow it as I walk
Scraps and muddy water make up my famine-defying full course meal

I sharpen my claws to stay proud and true to myself
I bite back at those who approach with honeyed words
What good is it to be owned by a human who's owned by society? Ha

It's time to go. Turn up my voice and set off
You wanna join? Don't be silly
You're on a leash, my lady

I'd rather keep my distance than grovel
Stray cat, stray cat, stray cat, stray cat
I'm not one to grin and bear it
Stray cat, stray cat, stray cat, stray cat

I just gotta be myself
Licking my wounds
Complacent stability
Spitting casually

I just gotta be myself
Faking friendliness
I won't wag my tail
I just gotta be myself, yeah

Am I living or being kept alive?
Am I walking or being led?
I choose my own destiny
Who dares to kill me?

What is strength, what is love?
When one cries, another laughs
Kindness can cut like a blade
Whose standards define wealth?
One time for your mind
My reason for fighting is simple
An answer to the absurdity and opaqueness of this world

I'd rather keep my distance than grovel
Stray cat, stray cat, stray cat, stray cat
I'm not one to grin and bear it
Stray cat, stray cat, stray cat, stray cat

I just gotta be myself
Licking my wounds
Complacent stability
Spitting casually

I just gotta be myself
Faking friendliness
I won't wag my tail
I just gotta be myself, yeah
