Cammino Lyrics (English Translation) – Tony Boy

Cammino (English Translation) Lyrics Meaning

[Verse 1]
In this first part he’s talking about how even though someone left him, he’s not breaking down crying but can’t stop thinking about them. He’s smoking alone and doesn’t even share the joint because he’s wrapped up in his own head. There’s hurt he carries that he doesn’t regret, but it’s the kind of hurt that’s been given and taken, like he’s both wounded others and himself. People around him watch but don’t really get him, and he feels like happiness wouldn’t change the way that other person thinks. When he looks at them unhappy and they look back, it just makes him feel heavier. Sitting close to them didn’t bring light or clarity like he hoped because he thought they could handle the deeper parts of him, but maybe they weren’t ready. He’s dressed in expensive clothes and shoes, surrounded by different people all the time, but they feel fake, like “infiltrators” rather than real connections. Even though he has joy somewhere inside, he doesn’t just let it out easily. Both of them are messed up in their own ways, and he thinks that’s just how it seems to people. He knows they’ve probably heard rumors or thoughts about him, but often it’s just provocation. For him, music is the thing that keeps him going, a way to deal with all this. When he talks about putting more lean in the lean, he’s exaggerating how he tries to numb or cope, and sometimes this madness actually gives him something to hold onto.

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Here he’s in a fancy car thinking about the person he can’t shake. Smoking isn’t taking the pressure off or freeing him from the tight feeling in his stomach. The more that person ignores him, the more he finds himself caught up in them, almost like getting stuck instead of letting go.

[Chorus]
In the chorus he compares himself and others to falling angels, saying there’s always some reason behind the way things go down, even when it hurts. People are all over him, pushing and watching, and he feels like every reaction has its own cause. He’s too sad and tangled up in feelings to truly say goodbye to this person, so instead of a dramatic farewell, he offers a simple gesture like a high five. It’s like he’s cheering them on even as he’s hurting. He repeats this idea that even when things fall apart or people swarm around him, there’s always something behind it, a motive or a story. But he’s still stuck in that sadness, not ready to let go, giving support to the other person’s path even if it costs him.

[Verse 2]
In this part he says that even when he’s around people, he feels invisible, like a ghost moving through life without connection. He mixes oxy with lean and calls it ghost mode, showing how he’s trying to escape or blur himself out. Respect in his world feels expensive, harder to get than a house, and he’s grateful that his rap career at least gave him a place to live. He admits dr�gs never take away the pain, and peeking through a peephole, he waits for someone who doesn’t show up. He thinks back on good times lost because he was chasing revenge or trying to get back at life, and feels the distance from that person twice as strongly because their hand isn’t there to hold.

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Here he’s again in that luxury car, still thinking of the person who lingers in his mind. Smoking still doesn’t ease the tension he feels, and the knot in his stomach stays tight. The more that person ignores him, the more he clings to them, even if it hurts. He admits he has a way of hurting himself emotionally, even when the relationship hasn’t fully ended. He mentions how that person’s body can make even a hotel feel beautiful to him, showing how desire and memory mix together for him. He feels like he’s too deep into his feelings this time and doesn’t know if he’ll come back down from it. He recognizes that person might be the only one who could truly reach him emotionally, but he’s aware that time is running out and he might lose that chance.

[Chorus]
He repeats how falling angels and the pressure people put on him always come with reasons behind them. He’s too sad to really say goodbye, so instead of a formal ending, he gives that simple supportive gesture, cheering the other person forward. Even with all the noise and emotions around him, he’s still stuck in that space where he can’t fully let go and instead shows support as they go their own way.

[Outro]
Rapid shoutout greeting from Wairaki.
