前面那块天

小羊终于抬头

xiǎo yáng zhōng yú tái tóu

The little lamb finally raises its head

不再贴着墙走

bù zài tiē zhe qiáng zǒu

No longer walking close against the wall

脚印只留一列

jiǎo yìn zhǐ liú yī liè

Leaving only one line of footprints

我把伤口交给晨雾收走

wǒ bǎ shāng kǒu jiāo gěi chén wù shōu zǒu

I give my wounds to the morning mist to carry away

口袋空得发亮

kǒu dài kōng de fā liàng

My pockets are so empty they almost shine

呼吸却更敢滚烫

hū xī què gèng gǎn gǔn tàng

Yet my breath dares to burn even hotter

风来就把我吹远

fēng lái jiù bǎ wǒ chuī yuǎn

When the wind comes, it blows me far away

我照样往前

wǒ zhào yàng wǎng qián

But I keep moving forward all the same

星光写在背上

xīng guāng xiě zài bèi shàng

Starlight is written across my back

锁不住这夜

suǒ bú zhù zhè yè

This night cannot hold me down

我走我的路

wǒ zǒu wǒ de lù

I walk my own road

不跟谁并肩

bù gēn shuí bìng jiān

I do not need anyone beside me

今夜我只认准

jīn yè wǒ zhǐ rèn zhǔn

Tonight, I fix my eyes only on

前面那块天

qián miàn nà kuài tiān

That patch of sky ahead

我不是谁的负担

wǒ bú shì shuí de fù dān

I am no one’s burden

也不借谁的火

yě bù jiè shuí de huǒ

And I borrow no one’s fire

抬头往前走

tái tóu wǎng qián zǒu

I raise my head and move forward

不回头

bù huí tóu

Without looking back

钢筋丛里穿行

gāng jīn cóng lǐ chuān xíng

I move through a forest of steel

鼻息撞碎雨点

bí xī zhuàng suì yǔ diǎn

My breath shatters the raindrops

黑影在后面追

hēi yǐng zài hòu miàn zhuī

Dark shadows chase behind me

我越跑越清醒

wǒ yuè pǎo yuè qīng xǐng

The farther I run, the clearer I become

谁说温顺才算好

shuí shuō wēn shùn cái suàn hǎo

Who says obedience is the only way to be good?

我偏要活得真

wǒ piān yào huó de zhēn

I choose to live truthfully

风来就把我吹远

fēng lái jiù bǎ wǒ chuī yuǎn

When the wind comes, it blows me far away

我照样往前

wǒ zhào yàng wǎng qián

But I keep moving forward all the same

星光写在背上

我不是谁的负担

wǒ bú shì shuí de fù dān

I am no one’s burden

也不借谁的火

yě bù jiè shuí de huǒ

And I borrow no one’s fire

抬头往前走

tái tóu wǎng qián zǒu

I raise my head and move forward

不回头

bù huí tóu

Without looking back

别替我安排

bié tì wǒ ān pái

Do not arrange my life for me

别替我命名

bié tì wǒ mìng míng

Do not decide what I should be called

我从泥里醒来

wǒ cóng ní lǐ xǐng lái

I awaken from the mud

先学会站稳

xiān xué huì zhàn wěn

First learning how to stand firm

脚下是旧墙皮

jiǎo xià shì jiù qiáng pí

Old plaster lies beneath my feet

心里有草场

xīn lǐ yǒu cǎo chǎng

But inside me stretches an open field

我走我的路

wǒ zǒu wǒ de lù

I walk my own road

不跟谁并肩
