The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.
You already know ice is here
Dunt scare no fear
I'm just following my dreams
Ice el que la forma desde diem studios
Si no te gusta me tienes que aguantar
Ni tu ni tu ni nadie a mi me va parar
En esta nota te tienes que fajar
Esto es pa que sepas que es un bravo de verda
Si no te gusta me tienes que aguantar
Ni tu ni tu ni nadie a mi me va parar
En esta nota te tienes que fajar
Esto es pa que sepas que es un bravo de verda
Y comenzando el 2011 y me destrabo como quiera
Me mandaron a estudiar y no era que yo no quiera
Que me gusta la music es lo que corre por mis venas
Forma de alegrar mi vida y desahogar mis penas
I grow up in nueva york y me vire pa montreal
Luego regrese al peru sin importar el que diran
Sueño perseguido casi sueño realizado
Poco a poco paso a paso ahora hechame un vistazo
Y music vivo music como music hasta cuando bebo
Music pa bailar escuchar music hasta cuando duermo
Cuando salgo por la calle escucho un voceo de lejos
EL BARBERO QUE LE METE QUE VINO DEL EXTRANJERO
Unos dicen q soy malo
Otros dicen q no insisto
Unos q yo estoy pegao
Otros q yo no estoy listo
Oh my god i almost forgot
Criticarme por como visto
No me mira asi que el unico que juzga es jesucristo
Cuantas veces cai
Y de todas me levantado
Me tienes parado frente a ti
Cuantas veces cai
Y de todas me levantado
Me tienes parado frente a ti
Dunt scare no fear
I'm just following my dreams
Ice el que la forma desde diem studios
Si no te gusta me tienes que aguantar
Ni tu ni tu ni nadie a mi me va parar
En esta nota te tienes que fajar
Esto es pa que sepas que es un bravo de verda
Si no te gusta me tienes que aguantar
Ni tu ni tu ni nadie a mi me va parar
En esta nota te tienes que fajar
Esto es pa que sepas que es un bravo de verda
Y comenzando el 2011 y me destrabo como quiera
Me mandaron a estudiar y no era que yo no quiera
Que me gusta la music es lo que corre por mis venas
Forma de alegrar mi vida y desahogar mis penas
I grow up in nueva york y me vire pa montreal
Luego regrese al peru sin importar el que diran
Sueño perseguido casi sueño realizado
Poco a poco paso a paso ahora hechame un vistazo
Y music vivo music como music hasta cuando bebo
Music pa bailar escuchar music hasta cuando duermo

Me tienes parado frente a ti

In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
