Translation
A Difficult Woman
If another person asks me the same question again
are you a good girl or bad
i am not a girl and there isn't any good or bad
who are you to tell me if i have a choice
If another person will bring up the same comment again
you aren't smiling back enough
the smile disappears, you went too far
i will smile when I want to laugh
I don't feel shame anymore
i am a difficult woman, i am a difficult woman
even during a whisper you know that i already feel
how much you all fear me
If another person will put me in front of others
will tell me that they bring me troubles
I will smile at him with love
they are sisters at the same party
If another person will tell me that you can't
that your voice is dangerous to be heard1
my song runs, plays in my voice
you can't stop me, can't stop me
I didn't want to talk about this, i wanted to go
but they are in the mud and i am the one getting dirty
who am i, who am i, what am i, what
mirror on the wall, full of amazement
i am like this like i am, what is crazy about this
if everything is possible so i won't relax about this
i didn't want to be a headline, yes allowed, not allowed, the most beautiful, not talented
it's all or nothing in the end, i have nothing to be insolent about, in any event this is the fire that is in me
and i have compassion and love within in the face of the fear
I don't feel any shame saying it this way
I don't feel shame anymore
i am a difficult woman, i am a difficult woman
also during a whisper you know that i already feel how much you all fear me
