Topenga Ataata
Kupu Tūpato
I been up ’til midnight, drivin’ to nowhere
– I haere ahau ki runga ‘ki te poutumarotanga, e taraiwa ana’ ki te kore
Bumpin’ a slow song, can’t get my head clear
– He waiata puhoi, e kore e taea te tiki i toku mahunga mārama
I been up ’til sunrise, headed to nowhere
– I haere ahau ki runga, tae noa ki te putanga mai o te ra, ki te kore
Hopin’ that someone’s missin’ me somewhere
– Ko te tūmanako kei te mihi mai tētahi ki ahau i tētahi wāhi
Drivin’, just drivin’
– Te taraiwa, te taraiwa noa
Just tryin’, just tryna get my head right
– Just tamata’, just tryna tiki toku matenga tika
It’ll all be better when, when I
– Ka pai ake te katoa ina, ina
When I, just gotta get my head right
– A, no te ahau, tika kia whiwhi toku matenga tika
And it don’t hit the same when you’re all alone
– A e kore e patua te reira i te taua, no te kei koe anake katoa
And the money’s insane, I know
– Na te haurangi o te moni, e mohio ana ahau
But it don’t fill the void at all
– Engari kaua e whakakiia te korenga
And I promised my mom I’d do better
– A ka oati ahau ki toku whaea ka pai ake taku mahi
But they keep trying me so I’m
– Engari ka whakamatau tonu rātau i ahau, nō reira ko au
With all the bullshit and fuck it all up
– Ki te katoa o te poauau me te fuck reira katoa ake
I keep pretendin’ everyone’s as good as me
– E mea ana ahau he pai tonu te katoa ki ahau
Shit’s so weird I cannot speak
– He mea tino rerekē kāore au e taea te kōrero
Balled so hard, I think I peaked
– He tino uaua, ki taku whakaaro I eke ahau ki te tihi
All my exes still love me
– E aroha tonu ana aku exes katoa ki ahau
Call me up, he wanna freak
– Karanga mai ki ahau, e hiahia ana ia ki te whakawehi
All my opps lookin’ distressed
– Ko aku opp katoa e titiro pouri ana
How you copy then compete?
– Me pēhea te tārua ka whakataetae?
Oh, you just mad that your nigga want me
– Aue, e haurangi ana koe e hiahia ana to nigga ki ahau
Oh, you just mad that we went ten weeks
– Aue, e haurangi ana koe i haere mātou i te tekau wiki
Oh, you just mad that your ass ain’t free
– Aue, ka haurangi noa koe kaore i te kore noa to kaihe
Scared to say shit so you fake kiki
– Mataku ki te mea shit na fake koe kiki
Scared to cut a nigga so I left, ski-ski
– Mataku ki te tarai i te nigga na ka mahue ahau, ski-ski
I ain’t scared of shit so I swing my meat
– Kāore au i te wehi i te pākiki nō reira ka hurihia e au taku kikokiko
I ain’t scared of shit so I let mine go
– Kāore au i te wehi i te pākiki nō reira ka tukua ahau e au kia haere
Pop my shit ’cause I can, I know
– Ka puta taku mea, nā te mea ka taea e au, e mōhio ana ahau
I been up ’til midnight, drivin’ to nowhere (Nowhere, nowhere)
– I runga ahau ‘tae noa ki te poutumarotanga, te taraiwa’ ki te wahi (Kahore, kahore)
Bumpin’ a slow song, can’t get my head clear
– He waiata puhoi, e kore e taea te tiki i toku mahunga mārama
I been up ’til sunrise, headed to nowhere
– I haere ahau ki runga, tae noa ki te putanga mai o te ra, ki te kore
Hopin’ that someone’s missin’ me somewhere
– Ko te tūmanako kei te mihi mai tētahi ki ahau i tētahi wāhi

It’ll all be better when, when I
– Ka pai ake te katoa ina, ina
When I, just gotta get my head right
– A, no te ahau, tika kia whiwhi toku matenga tika
And I can’t lose my focus, I know if hope is the goal
– A kaore e taea e au te ngaro i taku arotahi, e mohio ana ahau mehemea ko te tumanako te whaainga
Then I can’t succumb like these cum-guzzlers at all (Nope)
– Na e kore e taea e ahau te hinga rite enei cum-guzzlers i te katoa (Nope)
And I know that if love is my purpose
– A e mohio ana ahau mehemea ko te aroha taku kaupapa
I can’t waste energy looking for enemies, I just dub it all
– Kāore e taea e au te whakapau pūngao ki te rapu hoariri, ka tapaina katoatia e au
I’m anti-beef, half y’all bitches be too cheap
– He anti-beef ahau, he iti rawa te utu o te hawhe y’all bitches
Half a milli when I bling, fuck I look like on my knees?
– He hawhe mili ina pupuhi ahau, ka puta mai he rite ki oku turi?
You really just mad ’cause I make it look easy
– Koe tino tika haurangi ‘ no te mea hanga e ahau te reira titiro ngāwari
I’m really this bad, you should see it 3D
– He tino kino ahau, me kite KOE I TE 3D
Brought you this bag, you should spend it on me
– Kawea mai ki a koe tenei putea, kia noho koe i te reira i runga i ahau
All of my time precious, so be
– Katoa o toku wa utu nui, na kia
