M'n moeder maakt zich zorgen en ze
Wil dat ik ga praten met een psycholoog
Want d'r zoon die mist papa hoe die was
Waarmee die praten kon wanneer een homie d'r niet was
Als wijze man zei hij ooit, "Wees niet bang"
Dus papa, ik bedank je, want je zoon die kent geen angst
Dus vertrouw d'r op dat als je valt, je zoon je wel weer vangt
En ik weet je struggelt hard, maar geloof me, het komt goed
Want je dochter is een bikkel die zoveel voor je doet
En die zoveel van je houdt, ik weet niet wat ik zonder moet
Lieve zus, ik hou van je, zonder jou was ik nu zoek
En dat is leven, kan niet altijd gaan zoals je wil
Soms lijden, soms chill, soms weinig, soms veel
Nee, het kan niet altijd gaan zoals je wil
Maar dat is leven, en dat leven is soms kil
Ik hou van je
We moeten toch weer door
Nee, de tijd zal niet blijven wachten op je
Toch weer door
Nee, de tijd zal niet blijven wachten
We moeten toch weer door
Nee, de tijd zal niet blijven wachten op je
Toch weer door
Nee, de tijd zal niet blijven wachten
Zoveel gedachtes die d'r spoken in m'n hoofd
Inmiddels een jaar verder en loop bij een psycholoog
En m'n pa maakt kleine stappen, hij begint het meer te snappen
Hij kan huilen van de pijn en kan ook lachen om m'n grappen
Ook kleine stukken lopen, alleen praten dat gaat lastig
Toch begrijpen we elkaar en dragen samen al die lasten
Dus voel je niet bezwaard wanneer we tranen laten vallen, pa
We doen dit met elkaar dus laten tranen met z'n allen
Slapeloze nachten, soms vergeet ik mezelf
Probeer vanalles te onthouden, toch vergeet ik de helft
En al die lasten moeten sjouwen, ja, dat breekt je vanzelf
Maar ik doe dit niet alleen, en ja, dat weet ik ook wel
Alleen het voelt alsof niemand hier begrijpt wat die stress doet
Ik vecht met een depressie en dat stressen maakt me echt moe
Kijk niet meer naar wat ik wil, maar naar dat wat echt moet
En ik weet het komt wel goed zolang we allemaal ons best doen
We moeten toch weer door
Nee, de tijd zal niet blijven wachten op je
Toch weer door
Nee, de tijd zal niet blijven wachten
Maar we moeten toch weer door
Nee, de tijd zal niet blijven wachten op je
Toch weer door
Nee, de tijd zal niet blijven wachten, broertje

Zoveel gedachtes die d'r spoken in m'n hoofd
My mind is filled with so many thoughts
M'n moeder maakt zich zorgen en ze Wil dat ik ga praten met een psycholoog
My mother is worried and wants me to talk to a psychologist
Want d'r zoon die mist papa hoe die was Waarmee die praten kon wanneer een homie d'r niet was Als wijze man zei hij ooit, "Wees niet bang"
I miss how my dad used to be, someone I could talk to when my friends weren't around. As a wise man once said, "Don't be afraid."
Dus papa, ik bedank je, want je zoon die kent geen angst
So thank you dad, because your son doesn't know fear
Dus vertrouw d'r op dat als je valt, je zoon je wel weer vangt
So trust that if you fall, your son will catch you
Want door jou heb ik geleerd hoe ik moet lopen zonder hand
Because of you, I learned how to walk without holding your hand
En ik weet je struggelt hard, maar geloof me, het komt goed
I know you're struggling, but believe me, it will be okay
Want je dochter is een bikkel die zoveel voor je doet
Because your daughter is tough and does so much for you
En die zoveel van je houdt, ik weet niet wat ik zonder moet
And who loves you so much, I don't know what I would do without her
Lieve zus, ik hou van je, zonder jou was ik nu zoek
Dear sister, I love you, without you I would be lost
En dat is leven, kan niet altijd gaan zoals je wil
And that's life, things don't always go as you want
Soms lijden, soms chill, soms weinig, soms veel
Sometimes you suffer, sometimes you relax, sometimes you have little, sometimes you have much
Nee, het kan niet altijd gaan zoals je wil
No, things can't always go as you want
Maar dat is leven, en dat leven is soms kil
But that's life, and life can be cold sometimes
Ik hou van je
I love you
We moeten toch weer door
We have to keep going
Nee, de tijd zal niet blijven wachten op je
No, time won't wait for you
Toch weer door
Still, we must keep going
Zoveel gedachtes die d'r spoken in m'n hoofd Inmiddels een jaar verder en loop bij een psycholoog En m'n pa maakt kleine stappen, hij begint het meer te snappen
So many thoughts still occupy my mind, now a year has passed and I see a therapist. And my dad is making small progress, he's starting to understand more.
Hij kan huilen van de pijn en kan ook lachen om m'n grappen Ook kleine stukken lopen, alleen praten dat gaat lastig Toch begrijpen we elkaar en dragen samen al die lasten Dus voel je niet bezwaard wanneer we tranen laten vallen, pa
He can cry from the pain, and also laugh at my jokes. Walking short distances is easy, but speaking is hard. Still, we understand each other and carry each other's burdens. So don't feel bad when we cry together, dad.
We doen dit met elkaar dus laten tranen met z'n allen
We're doing this together, so let's all cry together
Slapeloze nachten, soms vergeet ik mezelf Probeer vanalles te onthouden, toch vergeet ik de helft
Sleepless nights, sometimes I forget myself. I try to remember everything, but I still forget half of it
En al die lasten moeten sjouwen, ja, dat breekt je vanzelf Maar ik doe dit niet alleen, en ja, dat weet ik ook wel
Carrying all these burdens, yeah, it breaks you down. But I'm not doing this alone, and I know that
Alleen het voelt alsof niemand hier begrijpt wat die stress doet Ik vecht met een depressie en dat stressen maakt me echt moe
It just feels like nobody understands what this stress is doing to me. I'm fighting depression, and that stress is making me really tired
Kijk niet meer naar wat ik wil, maar naar dat wat echt moet
I'm no longer focused on what I want, but on what I really need
En ik weet het komt wel goed zolang we allemaal ons best doen
And I know it will be okay as long as we all do our best
Nee, de tijd zal niet blijven wachten op je Maar we moeten toch weer door
No, time won't wait for you, but we still have to keep going
Toch weer door
Still, we must keep going
Nee, de tijd zal niet blijven wachten, broertje
No, time won't wait for you, little brother

Petros Polikratis Verse 1: Ginger]
So many thoughts that haunt my mind
my mother is worried and she wants me to talk to a psychologist
Because there son who misses dad how he was
With which he could talk when a homie was not there
As a wise man he once said, "Don't be afraid"
So daddy, I thank you, because your son knows no fear
So trust that if you fall, your son will catch you again
Because through you I learned how to walk without a hand
And I know you struggle hard, but believe me, you'll be fine
Because your daughter is a fool who does so much for you
And who loves you so much, I don't know what to do without
Dear sister, I love you, without you I was now missing
And that's life, can't always go the way you want
Sometimes suffer, sometimes chill, sometimes little, sometimes a lot
No, it can't always go the way you want
But that is life, and that life is sometimes cold
I love you
[Chorus: Mirthe]
We have to go on again
No, the time won't keep waiting for you
Yet again
No, the time won't keep waiting
We have to go on again
No, the time won't keep waiting for you
Yet again
No, the time won't keep waiting
[Verse 2: Ginger]
So many thoughts that haunt my mind
Meanwhile, a year later and go to a psychologist
And my dad takes small steps, he starts to understand
He can cry because of the pain and can also laugh at my jokes
Small parts are also running, only talking is difficult
Yet we understand each other and together bear all those burdens
So don't feel embarrassed when we shed tears, Dad
We do this together so we all have tears
Sleepless nights, sometimes I forget myself
Try to remember everything, yet I forget half
And all those burdens have to drag, yes, that will break you automatically
But I don't do this alone, and yes, I know that too
Only it feels like nobody here understands what that stress does
I fight with depression and that stress makes me really tired
Don't look at what I want anymore, but at what really needs to be done
And I know it will be fine as long as we all do our best
[Chorus: Mirthe]
We have to go on again
No, the time won't keep waiting for you
Yet again
No, the time won't keep waiting
But we still have to continue
No, the time won't keep waiting for you
Yet again
No, time won't keep waiting, little brother
