You Will So You Can (English translation)

You will so you can
I say you can if you will, you will so you can (It is clear you can)
I say you can if you will, you will so you can

They who govern our world are incompetent
Why ask about conditions why obey and wait
Why waste time we have well willed clearly
Evidently something must happen soon
At a furious pace, they're consuming our globe
They're turning dreams to ashes and soot
On him who obeys the idiot is himself idiot
Affixing fetters around his own foot
So chin up and find strength in your inside
The fools' leadership makes the people lesser
So frightened, snowed, misled
Governed, watched, but never seen
Under compulsion we're not really we
Governed by someone else not really free
High time to stop waiting, get done what's intended
The thought holds the doors closed.

I say you can if you will, you will so you can
I say you can if you will, you will so you can
Dare to will, dare to question, know your own ability

I say what the hell leave off whining stop chattering, talking a load of crap
You are surely far too well to be nagging on complaining that bites
Do off your yoke and chains to get to know how strong you are
Write your own book on construction presses for each good idea
Protest, criticize, sing, cry, talk, discuss
roar, paint, initiate, glow, for bread on the waters for many
Light fires where you see darkness for you have the energy for you never get tired
Turn when you get stuck water where the drought screams when you see rot
Do your own building in authority-free zones
Own battalions of love-soldiers with cannons
At forgotten windmills at millions of illusions
Spreading joy shooting notes reality of visions
Your own thought please so makes reality of it
Let your feeling give you courage and make your neighbor your friend
Best you do it now, for your time is now and not later
Best that you are you and you can do it again

I say you can if you will, you will so you can
I say you can if you will, you will so you can
It is clear you can, clear you can (so yes you can)

So many musts are they actually yours?
Many take second and do them as orders
Stressed rushing for someone else's will
As never exists when you fall downhill
At needs stay only take over glow
Do it till your life's in overflow
Live not so death takes what you never had
You can if you will, you will so you can

What only I see is closed doors there
For us who want more than to build a career
Seek in yourself for it's lies they teach
they play with fire on low desires
So refuse to stand still
Know what you will
Striving in charity with the friend next to
You can and I can, together we can more
Advanced like a fire by the heat, we become more

I say you can if you will, you will so you can
It is clear you can, clear you can, clear you can make the dream come true
I say you can if you will, you will so you can
Let them see you have a damn more to give
