LAY (张艺兴) | MASK (面罩) [chinese/pinyin/english lyrics]

LAY 02 SHEEP: MASK (面罩)
Fonts: same chinese font / DK Pimpernel / TrashHand
okay first off disclaimer i have no idea wtf yixing is saying in the beginning, because it wasn't included in the lyrics. to me, it sounds like he's saying "i am such a barren light (night??)" with bad pronunciation of barren but idk. if you didn't think it said that you're gonna never be able to unhear it now anyway :D
anyway this song is unexpectedly lit esp the chorus and i feel like it's yixing's way of saying a big f u to all his haters and saying he doesn't have to show you jack if he doesn't want to but he's doing it because he loves what he's doing. the song was, as usual, kind of hard to translate but this time it was mostly because it was hard to condense since yixing used a lot of chinese idioms.
"勿忘初心/保持初心" basically means don't forget the feelings you had when you first started something / why you started it and why you like to do it. "世态炎凉" i translated roughly as hypocrites but it's more specifically it's like how people tend to suck up to you if you're successful and rich, so hypocrites. "假的" is fake, technically, but I just kept it as "a lie" to keep up with the truth/lie opposition. (truth/falsehood just sounds awk)
ANYWAY that's enough for chinese 101 i hope you enjoy the translation, it's 100% my own so please take out with credit!

In case anyone wants to see the lyrics for Yixing's special winter song Goodbye Christmas, the lyrics are here: vimeo.com/248439036. SM was a butt and took it down for copyright :( thank you all for watching and commenting!! Have a lovely day

[@cindyyu1214]

This is great to have the translation. Is there copyright issue to add his own pictures as the background picture? Would be even more attractive? Just a thought

[@anki_yt]

doodlebrain24 yep

[@deeeopee3875]

Yixing also said mask is his favorite song in this album

[@doodlebrain24]

Yeah I heard about that too! I know mah man so well lol. The lyrics are everything he's been holding in and wanting to say. So glad Yixing went off on haters while being empowering and true to himself.

[@iwillsearchtheuniverse5371]

agree

[@ilovewhatyouhateexo2337]

agree

[@sofianicolelumbo8292]

yixing's lyrics are so heartfelt and meaningful but without translation they sound (to me because I dont speak chinese) like any other rap song out there :') thank you yixing for making me see the light and giving me positive vibes

[@emi_wuuuuu]

don't worry xD even as a native chinese speaker i can not intepret what he's saying just by listening bcus it's way too fast (i would have to look at the lyrics) i think i can understand most of the chorus though

[@layshotterthanwasabi9560]

Really? But i fell in love with this song before reading the lyric😂 this is catchy

十字路口我谦卑低头
红色的灯口绿色箭头
要我往左走我继续低头
烟雾弥漫笼罩在四周
说我在悬崖尽头
抉择内心在怒吼
You know I’ll be myself
不兜圈兜什么圈
做你自己掌握方向盘路还遥远
不会被左右信念看清黑与白
用心去分辨是与非和好与坏
笑容的真相 内心的倔强
夜深人静封闭 隐藏所有情绪
I don’t have to show you
Everything I’ve been through
勿忘初心
就算沼泽泥泞也要清醒
Hey 不要有所犹豫 believe you can do it
Hey 不要有所顾虑
得到或者失去
Hey 看破所有面具
看破傀儡游戏
保持初心无所畏惧 skrt skrt skrt
When I 不去争辩是非所有
却被说成我害怕失去一切
谎言列成排比句
是该沉思还是该让你去吹嘘
世态炎凉拆下他们的面具
早点脱离别再来沉醉
那虚伪标签的名和利
Ayy
真的都能说成假的假的
假的都能变成真的 Ayy
莫名其妙都成了真的 真的可以 girl

保持初心无所畏惧 skrt skrt skrt
捍卫自己不需要卑微
遇到困难微笑着去面对
点燃心中希望的火焰让一切重来
一步一个脚印朝着梦想道路前进 Aye
所有trouble 全wipe out
所有包袱全抛掉
迈出第一步重要
没有什么做不到
不同的方式 不同的态度
不同的感觉 Like that
相同的阴暗 相同的骗局
相同讨人厌 Like that

[@Myopinion678]

this song is a big f u to all yixing haters who try to bring him down and also shows yixing's perseverance and his passion to move forward and not forgetting his initial heart despite all the difficulties . I love him . Thankyou for this master piece . It's yixing's favorite song in the album too.

[@nutellasammich9964]

maaaaan the beginning just draws me in, especially with starting calm humming tune with the creeping low bass tune coming after and then developing after. this is a masterpiece and my favourite song to listen to out of all the songs coming out this year haha. lay forever my bias

至從看他拍極限挑戰露出純真的一面，就很喜歡他，因為他不做假，在男人幫的磨練下學會了保護自己，不在容易被欺騙，還有他改的胡大姐真的很好聽

Yixing's Sheep Album is the best album from him. I mean you can hear all the various genre of these like the soft until up beat, also there's not only love songs in this, there's a song for his hometown, for his Xbacks, for his dreams. He puts all the things that he want to say either ❤️❤️
