English Translation
Don’t fear
No fear
Leave your worries, let me chase the night
Ain’t no reason to stay behind
I won’t stay around, so you’ll come and get it
Better now
Better now
Every night left and right
I’ve been fighting
Every time hold on tight
Kept on smiling
I can’t stay a while you chase my ambition
Better now
Better now
Don’t fear
I’m not looking for your flaws at all
Thought you hurt me baby
Not at all
I’m still alive
I’m still alive
I’m always gonna be here
Don’t fear
I’m not looking for your love at all
Thought you had me baby
Not at all
I’m still alive
I’m still alive
I’m always going to be here
Don’t fear the shadow
I will light you up
Don’t fear the shark
I’ll defeat it
Don’t fear anything
I’m always in here
Even if we say goodbye
Let’s love again
Even if we say goodbye
Let’s love again
Let’s love again
Let’s love again
Let’s love again
