JUJU Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Mä en jaksa, mä en jaksa.
Refrain:
Mä en jaksa keittoo enää,
Mä en jaksa paskan läpän heittoo enää,
Mä en jaksa sikiöasentoo alla peittoo enää,
Mä en jaksa sitä enää,
Ja miks mun tarviis, mä voin valita toisin,
En jaksa enää valittaa, vaikka valittaa voisin.
En aio enää alittaa rimaa vaik alittaa voisin,
Elämä opetti en tekis mitään nyt toisin.
Mä teen kaiken nyt uusiks,
Mut en samal taval ku ennen
Turhat asiat jäi ja meni mennen.
Oon paljon vahvempi,
Tunnen ja tiedän sen sisäl.
Mikään ei mua hallitse kunnes mä kiellän sen itse.
Jätä vaan flow,
Mä tunnen ja tiedän sen liikkeen
Suomen eliittii, ja sä tunnet ja tiedät sen sitte.
Tää rikko kuparisen, tää rikko jään
Parasta ku musa pakottaa nyökyttää pään.
Nyökyttää jään,
Mä jatkan tätä stoorii,
Mun elämä ei oo mollii,
Enää se on vaan oodii.
Ja seuraan tät koodii aina kunnes mä kuolen,
Ja ne aidot frendit on onnellisii mun puolest.
Älä tarjoo mulle mitää, mä en sitä halua,
Tajuut ku annat elämäs sormien välist valua.
Haluun elää, en muuta pyydä enää,
Kun sä löydät syyn elää, ni sit on syytä elää.
Refrain
En tekis mitää nyt toisin,
En muuttas mitää vaik voisin,
Niin monelle tän saman nyt soisin.
Jos en olis avannu silmii,
Kuinka hukas mä nyt oisin,
Mut silti mä vaan oisin.
Mä oonkin vahva, pois musta heikko,
Nyt tartuin kahvaan,
Pois musta peikko.
Käännän, avaan luukun
Näin luon sitä valoo,
Laitan sitä mun suuhun ja
Juon sitä nyt janoon.
Ja se jano on nyt vahvempi,
Saa nähdä mihin riittää rahkeeni.
Vaik levy floppais tekisin sen uudestaan tost vaan
Nyt luotan itseeni enemmän ku koskaan.
Hetki sit ei luistin ihan luistanu jäällä
Nyt pää on niin selvä etten edes muistanu tällast.
Ennen oli teennäistä, ku piti nauraa
Nyt tuntuu nii hyvält et tekee mieli laulaa.

Mä en jaksa paskan läpän heittoo enää,
I am too tired to make meaningless jokes anymore,
Mä en jaksa sikiöasentoo alla peittoo enää,

Mä en jaksa sitä enää,
I am too tired of that anymore,
Ja mikä parasta mun en tarvii sitä enää.
And what's best, I don't need it anymore.
Ja miks mun tarviis, mä voin valita toisin,
And why should I, I can choose differently,
En jaksa enää valittaa, vaikka valittaa voisin.
I don't have the energy to complain anymore, although I could,
En aio enää alittaa rimaa vaik alittaa voisin,
I will not lower the bar anymore, although I could,
Elämä opetti en tekis mitään nyt toisin.
Life has taught me not to do anything differently now.
Mä teen kaiken nyt uusiks,
I do everything anew now,
Mut en samal taval ku ennen
But not in the same way as before.
Turhat asiat jäi ja meni mennen.
Useless things were left and went.
Oon paljon vahvempi,
I am much stronger,
Tunnen ja tiedän sen sisäl.
I feel and know it from within.
Mikään ei mua hallitse kunnes mä kiellän sen itse.
Nothing controls me until I deny it myself.
Jätä vaan flow,
Just leave the flow,
Mä tunnen ja tiedän sen liikkeen
I feel and know the movement
Suomen eliittii, ja sä tunnet ja tiedät sen sitte.
Finland's elite, and you know and understand it then.
Tää rikko kuparisen, tää rikko jään
This broke the copper, this broke the ice
Parasta ku musa pakottaa nyökyttää pään.
The best when the music forces you to nod your head.
Nyökyttää jään,
Nodding stays,
Mä jatkan tätä stoorii,
I continue this story,
Mun elämä ei oo mollii,
My life is not minor,
Enää se on vaan oodii.
Now it's just waiting.
Ja seuraan tät koodii aina kunnes mä kuolen,
And I follow this code until I die,
Ja ne aidot frendit on onnellisii mun puolest.
And those true friends are happy for me.
Älä tarjoo mulle mitää, mä en sitä halua,
Don't offer me anything, I don't want it,
Tajuut ku annat elämäs sormien välist valua.
You realize when you let your life slip through your fingers.
Haluun elää, en muuta pyydä enää,
I want to live, I don't ask for anything else,
Kun sä löydät syyn elää, ni sit on syytä elää.
When you find a reason to live, then there is a reason to live.

Niin monelle tän saman nyt soisin.
I wish the same for so many now.
Jos en olis avannu silmii,
If I hadn't opened my eyes,
Kuinka hukas mä nyt oisin,
How lost I would be now,
Mut silti mä vaan oisin.
But still I would be.
Mä oonkin vahva, pois musta heikko,
I am strong, weak is gone from me,
Nyt tartuin kahvaan,
Now I grabbed the handle,
Pois musta peikko.
Away from me, the demon.
Käännän, avaan luukun
I turn, I open the door
Näin luon sitä valoo,
I create that light
Laitan sitä mun suuhun ja
I put it in my mouth and
Juon sitä nyt janoon.
Drink it now thirsty.
Ja se jano on nyt vahvempi,
And that thirst is now stronger,
Saa nähdä mihin riittää rahkeeni.
Let's see where my abilities will take me.
Vaik levy floppais tekisin sen uudestaan tost vaan
Even if the album flops, I would do it again
Nyt luotan itseeni enemmän ku koskaan.
Now I trust myself more than ever.
Hetki sit ei luistin ihan luistanu jäällä
A moment ago, the skate didn't slide on the ice
Nyt pää on niin selvä etten edes muistanu tällast.
Now my head is so clear that I didn't even remember it.
Ennen oli teennäistä, ku piti nauraa
Before it was fake, when I had to laugh
Nyt tuntuu nii hyvält et tekee mieli laulaa.
Now it feels so good that I feel like singing.
Mä en jaksa, mä en jaksa,
I am exhausted, I am exhausted,
Mä en jaksa keittoo enää,
I am too tired to cook anymore,
Mä en jaksa paskan läpän heittoo enää,
I am too tired to make meaningless jokes anymore,
Mä en jaksa sikiöasentoo alla peittoo enää,
I am too tired to curl up in a fetal position under a blanket anymore,
Mä en jaksa sitä enää,
I am too tired of that anymore,
Ja mikä parasta mun en tarvii sitä enää.
And what's best, I don't need it anymore.
