Alpha Omega [English translation]

I'm hungry again

If you rip your heart open to a CD

It sound like this

It might hurt and make you ashamed

But a man can never run from his past here either

It's too late to write a testament in the coffin

It throws me back in my thoughts for a moment again

Where they taught you to hit

To eat your plate empty

Where a mom took care of her sons and dad came home late at night

The family was shirking the taxman, I tried to reach the most expensive plot of Monopoly

I decided, that an adult doesn't need to throw fake money around

Poverty is scary

I was good at talking big

I had a lot to tell

Some melodrama about my experiences

Like Eino Leino (one of the most famous Finnish poets) would be alive again

Lahti's (Finnish city, where Cheek was born and raised) night clearly needed a interpreter

Back then I had more attitude than skill

But the most important thing is that all we did was genuine

[Chorus:]

I give my all

When I got no more, eyo!

Do you realize, who's standing in front of you?

Alpha Omega, Alpha Omega

Tougher, better, faster, stronger

I give my all

When I got no more, eyo!

Do you realize, who's standing in front of you?

Alpha Omega, Alpha Omega

I'll always remember my team (LIIGA)

I'm playing like Selänne (Finnish ice hockey player, a legend) for the last time in the national team's shirt

Before the fat lady sings, the speed doesn't drop

I ride like Rosberg (former Finnish F1-driver) before the last checkered flag of his career

In pressure a man is going through the steps of his life

This will be the last diary of the cool and the renowned

Brutally honest

I got a feeling that my grandchildren are going to find my picture printed on a greenback

I give my all, when I got no more

I'm looking to the mirror, not sure who there stands though

A whore-like bullshitter or a Finnish superstar?

But I'm confident that he'll come back even more awesome

It leaves a mark, a label, that other females feel too

Even though he's often drinking hard, still never haggling his standard levels

Look foward and up, even though the years have been windy

He's here again, if you didn't know that look up the news

[Chorus]

From the beginning to the end, from alpha to omega

If I didn't give my all, I woudln't be able to give anything

I'm not able to skimp

Inside me, there's burning harder again

[Chorus]
