Description
A morning that's taking its time to decide whether it will be sunny or cloudy. Somewhere deep in my memory, an alarm clock is buzzing, but it seems it's not the alarm clock ringing, but adulthood. The one where breakfasts become negotiations, laughter is a cover, and time slips through your fingers like tea poured in haste. Running to avoid being late for something important, although it's not entirely clear what exactly. Piecing yourself back together between others' expectations and your own "have-tos." Learn patience like a new art form. And then suddenly realise that being an adult isn't about victories, but about the ability to stay the course, even when you don't know where the finish line is. Somewhere there, between the grey sky and the warmth of palms, a quiet reconciliation emerges. It's not surrender, it's just growing up.
Lyrics and translation
Original
Pagi yang tak pasti 'tuk mengejar mimpi.
Sinar matahari mengganggu lelap tidurku.
Bawa pura-pura sarapan basa-basi.
Mencari-cari makna di meja yang tak pernah peduli.
Beribu hari yang kulalui, sejuta tanya atau lebih.
Mengapa aku masih di sini meskipun esok aku kembali.
Langit biru yang menjelma kelabu.
Berlari hanya 'tuk membeli waktu. Kesunyian yang berbalut senyuman palsu.
Menjadi dewasa. Yang tak selalu berakhir bahagia.
Bertahan adalah jalan injaknya.
Hingga akhirnya kubelajar menerima.
Menjadi dewasa.
Tubuh yang berubah.
Bengkung yang tak kupinta.
Banyak rahasia yang mulai lelah kujaga.
Berberapa nama kulalui hingga sebulan atau lebih.
Mengapa aku masih begini berharap ada yang setia di sini.
Langit biru yang menjelma kelabu.
Berlari hanya 'tuk membeli waktu. Kesunyian yang berbalut senyuman palsu.
Menjadi dewasa. Yang tak selalu berakhir bahagia.
Bertahan adalah jalan injaknya.
Hingga akhirnya kubelajar menerima.
Menjadi dewasa.
Dewasa.
Langit biru yang menjelma kelabu.
Berlari hanya 'tuk membeli waktu. Kesunyian yang berbalut senyuman palsu.
Menjadi dewasa. Langit biru yang menjelma kelabu.
Berlari hanya 'tuk membeli waktu. Kesunyian yang berbalut senyuman palsu.
Menjadi dewasa. Yang tak selalu berakhir bahagia.
Bertahan adalah jalan injaknya.
Hingga akhirnya kubelajar menerima. Menjadi dewasa.
Aaa aaa dewasa.
English translation
An uncertain morning to chase dreams.
Sunlight disturbs my sleep.
Bring pretend breakfast pleasantries.
Searching for meaning at a table that never cares.
I've gone through thousands of days, a million questions or more.
Why am I still here even though I come back tomorrow.
The blue sky turns gray.
Running just to buy time. Silence disguised as a fake smile.
Become an adult. Which doesn't always have a happy ending.
Surviving is the way to go.
Until finally I learned to accept it.
Become an adult.
A changing body.
Bengkung that I didn't ask for.
There are many secrets that I'm starting to get tired of keeping.
I went through several names for a month or more.
Why am I still hoping there is someone loyal here.
The blue sky turns gray.
Running just to buy time. Silence disguised as a fake smile.
Become an adult. Which doesn't always have a happy ending.
Surviving is the way to go.
Until finally I learned to accept it.
Become an adult.
Mature.
The blue sky turns gray.
Running just to buy time. Silence disguised as a fake smile.
Become an adult. The blue sky turns gray.
Running just to buy time. Silence disguised as a fake smile.
Become an adult. Which doesn't always have a happy ending.
Surviving is the way to go.
Until finally I learned to accept it. Become an adult.
Aaaaaa grown up.
