Queen the Warrior

谁在怕 一个女子成为野心家

Who is afraid if a woman becomes an ambitious woman

去梦 去追 去问一句话

Go dream, go chase, go ask a question

先生与我 有何不同

What’s the difference between you and me, sir?

困我身 举着牌匾叫我低入尘

You limit me, raise a plaque, force me to bow to the dust

拘我魂 条条规训叫我忍了吞

You restrain my soul, rules and regulations telling me to endure and swallow it all

笑我的前程 迈不出家门

They laughed at my future, prevented me from leaving the house

要不争要我认 温顺地走完 这一生

They forced me to accept my fate, forced me to live my life obediently

可是我啊 听见风 来自海上和天空

But I heard the wind, blowing from the sea and the sky

它说别 别低头 低头便入牢笼

It said, “No, don’t lower your head,” or you will go to prison

你是海浪 也是长风

You are the waves and the wind

怎可以上锁呢

How could you be locked up

那驯不服 关不住 是我眼中的刀锋

The untamed, uncontainable is the blade in my eyes

这世界 容不下 那就刺破它吧

If this world can’t hold me, then pierce right through it

我的苦修 我的疼痛

My hardships, my pain

终将转身 赞颂我

Will eventually turn around and praise me

野心家 一个女子成为野心家

An ambitious woman will remain an ambitious woman

他们笑我是因为害怕

They laugh at me because they are scared

我够胆啊

I am bold enough

不认命算一种野心吗

Is refusing fate a kind of ambition

那我就是天生野心家

Then I must be an ambitious woman by nature

去梦去追去问一句话

Go dream, go chase, go ask a question

先生与我 有何不同

What’s the difference between you and me, sir?

走多少路 扑了多少空

Walked how many roads, chased how many emptiness

吃了多少痛

Endured how much pain

若不够疯 怎么配得上

If you’re not crazy enough, how are you worthy of

我负过的重

The burdens I’ve carried

夺走我的心爱

The hearts taken from me

泼脏我的衣衫

The clothes dirtied

而我将在黑夜中生还

Yet I will survive in the night

眼神依然期待

My eyes still hopeful

双手依然洁白

My hands still clean

唯有天真的人永不败

Only the innocent never lose

第几次站上了月台 远方都在

How many times have I stood on the platform, the distance all around

我听见风 我的风 来自海上和天空

I hear the wind, my wind, coming from the sea and sky

它说别 别低头 低头便入牢笼

It says stop, don’t bow, bowing lands you in a cage

你是海浪 也是长风

You are the waves, you are the long wind

怎可以上锁呢

How could you be locked up

那驯不服 关不住 是我眼中的刀锋

The untamed, uncontainable is the blade in my eyes

这世界 容不下 那就刺破它吧

If this world can’t hold me, then pierce right through it

我的苦修 我的疼痛

My hardships, my pain

终将转身 赞颂我

Will eventually turn around and praise me

野心家 一个女子成为野心家

Ambitious, a woman becoming ambitious

他们笑我是因为害怕

They laugh at me because they’re scared

我够胆啊

I’m bold enough

不认命算一种野心吗

Is refusing fate a kind of ambition

那我就是天生野心家

Then I must be an ambitious woman by nature

去梦去追去问一句话

Go dream, go chase, go ask a question

先生与我 有何不同

Sir, how am I different from you

我是我 最大的 野心啊

I am my greatest ambition

踏黄沙 闯霓虹 深渊赶路 也无恐

Treading yellow sands, braving neon lights, racing through the abyss, unafraid

我是我 最爱的 野心家

I am the ambitious I love the most

若世界 容不下 去撞破它 成为我

If the world can’t hold me, I will smash through it and let it become myself

去驯服它 平视我

To tame it, to look it in the eye

去告诉它 何为我

To show it who I am
