They Don't Know lyrics with English Translations
[Chorus]
They don't know, and I say they don't know
They see me smile, but they don't know what I feel inside
Only you know, yeah, only you know
They see me smile
But they don't know what I feel inside
[Verse 1] They see the dancing, dem see the performance (They see the dancing, they see the performance) Nuff people see mi life an waan one (A lot of people see my life and want one) But dem nuh know seh more time it look dormant (But they don't know that sometime it looks dormant) And dem nuh see seh ah mi belly mi a crawl pon (And they don't see that I'm crawling on my belly) Caw mi mama just call mi with tears in her eyes (Because my mama just called me with tears in her eyes) She never know mi have a stage show tonight (She never knew I have a stage show tonight) Not even she see di fears in my eyes (Not even her see the fears in my eyes) But mi just a gwaan put on di show (But I just keep putting on the show)
[Chorus] Cause they don't know, yeah They don't know, they see me smile But they dont know what I feel inside (dem nuh know, dem nuh know) (But they don't know what I feel inside (they don't know, they don't know)) Only you know, only I know Jah They see me smile but they don't know what I feel inside
