Marwan Moussa - BA2ES (Hopeless) (English Translation) Lyrics

[Intro: Marwan Moussa]

Oh, oh, oh

[Verse 1: Marwan Moussa]

I’m spending my nights on Sadness.2 FM

Cropped the memories, hit save, and pushed through

I looked into my mirror and felt like I'm a guest in my own body

I need to snap out of it, wake myself up before the summer hits

I looked forward, looked back

They made me forget how to even ask for a request

I played it the nice one, the honest one, the genuine one

[Chorus: Marwan Moussa]

Now I’m hopeless, despеrate

And still, no one’s evеr really noticed

I’m not sorry, sorry

So don’t tell me to stay optimistic

My hand’s on the bottle, what now?

Buzzed and can’t feel a thing

So many times, overthinking has only led to regret

[Verse 2: Marwan Moussa]

Love and emotion

We’ve heard so many stories, but never really saw them

Fake community, and their hearts are dry

You sell cheap advices to the ones barely holding up

Even my shadow’s no longer walking with me anymore

Can’t find anything to put out this fire inside

And all I got from them was injuries[Chorus: Marwan Moussa]

Dad, dad, tell me why

Why did life hit me this hard?

Ah, I stayed straight, so what did I gain?

If everyone’s a liar, then what does that make you?

[Verse 3: Marwan Moussa]

Locked inside, while facing the mirror, I knew the moment depression hit me. Wow

Even ice feels warm, Is this a nightmare or a dream or a weight on my shoulders? Wow

Took a breath, ah, took a breath

Ah, two breaths, and everything flipped

Ah, three breaths, I found myself up on the cliff

Ah, four breaths, my conscience went adrift

Why do I get high just to escape from it?

Then get high again to wake up from it?

Like I’m scared of getting too close

And what I ran from turned out even worse

A Khamsin hit, and I couldn’t see

You’re not a stranger, I guess part of me was afraid

But I was up high, talking to myself, time melting away

Gold in the brain, but only for those searching for gold bars

[Chorus: Marwan Moussa]

Dad, dad, tell me why

Why did life hit me this hard?

Ah, I stayed straight, so what did I gain?

If everyone’s a liar, then what does that make you?[Chorus: Marwan Moussa]

Hopeless, desperate

And still, no one’s ever really noticed

No one understands or listens

So don’t tell me to stay optimistic

My hand’s on the bottle, what now?

Buzzed and can’t feel a thing

So many times, overthinking has only led to regret

[Outro: Donia Wael &

Marwan Moussa

You start getting angry at everything

Even at yourself
