Lyrics
I always see my reflection in the sea
I often contemplate my reflection in the sea.
Thinking perhaps tomorrow
Contemplating that maybe a better day will arrive tomorrow.
The day will come
Hoping for a future day of change.
Wandering in the street,
Roaming around in the streets,
As a beggar in search of bread
Similar to a beggar, seeking basic sustenance.
I’ve always wanted to get that signal,
I've always desired to receive a sign or indication,
Because I don’t see progress
Feeling stagnant or not seeing any progress.
People see me walking and say
Observers comment on my aimless wanderings, saying,
“The man has no path”
"This individual lacks direction."
Because I always walk in circles,
Because I continually move in circles,
Hunting for life
In pursuit of a fulfilling life.
But what I realize is
But what I come to understand is,
I’m seducing a stranger when I go out
When I go out, I'm alluring or attracting a stranger.
I’m seducing a stranger when I play my cards
Even in my actions, I captivate an unknown person.
I’m seducing a stranger when I watch the stars
My allure extends to when I stargaze.
Oh, oh, oh, and if I have to name it now
If I had to name this allure now,
My stranger’s name is pride
The name of this stranger I allure is "pride."
You see me with those curious eyes,
Others observe me with curiosity,
Pretending you’ll find what I want
Pretending that they might discover what I desire,
But you don’t know, baby,
However, they don't comprehend, darling,
What I’ve been searching for
What I've been searching for isn't merely a physical encounter.
Is not a simple fuck
It's more profound than a casual intimacy.
I drive more miles a day
I cover more miles daily,
Wishing I can just see
Hoping to witness or grasp
What destiny is keeping for me
The destiny that awaits me.
You’ll never know your skills
You won't understand your potential,
Unless you try it here
Unless you attempt it in this place.

Oh, Oh, Oh, I don’t want compassion
I don't seek sympathy,
Oh, oh, oh, I don’t see the signs
Nor do I notice the indications or signals.
Oh, oh, oh, I’ll never be your star
I will never become your idol or star,
Oh, oh, oh, but I won’t give up now
But I refuse to surrender now.
I’m seducing a stranger when I go out
Repeated line: When I go out, I attract a stranger.
I’m seducing a stranger when I play my cards
Repeated line: In my actions, I captivate an unknown person.

My stranger’s name is pride (x2)
Reiteration: The name of this stranger I allure
