“LOST IN TRANSLATION” by COLOSSAL MUSIC is a rap ballad that blends raw introspection with a moody, melodic vibe. The track's verses paint a picture of late-night confessions, fractured memories, and haunted reflections, all underpinned by heavy hearts and lost love. With vivid imagery like “smokin’ out of cupped hands on the quads after class” and “scribblin’ in notebooks on the steps of the crib,” the song pulls listeners into a confessional space where every lyric feels personal. The chorus’s refrain—“Heavy heart slain / Lost in translation”—drives home that moment of emotional freefall, capturing the pain of two souls drifting apart. Even in its ghostlike echoes and moments of desperation, “LOST IN TRANSLATION” holds out a hint of redemption, reminding us that sometimes the hardest truths can only be found when we finally face the lies we’ve been telling ourselves.

LYRICS:
[Verse]
House of mirrors cold and vacant
If I said I wasn't faded, I was lyin'
"Where she at?" He askin'
I respond, "Remind me, later"
Wrote a story 'bout her, I wasn't lying, you a liar
Yeah, fingers in the dash
Spliffin' the glass, pulchritudinous past
Quickly forgotten, stupid ass
It's not that it was bad, I just couldn't grasp
Smokin' out of cupped hands on the quads after class
And we used to pack the place
I was livin' on an al-a-day and a bowl of Cap'n Crunch
I ain't have a way, Mishmei
Was the only person that knew how to snap me out that place
This location needs some explainin'
If I said she wasn't in here, I was lyin'
Stayin' stalemate, we stuck at the stasis
Wanna tell you 'bout her, I wasn't lying, you a liar
Tall, slim to the waist
Not her belly, in the face, bring the all types to my way
From the Bay, lost two years astray
Because our loves blocked each other's lanes
[Chorus]
Heavy heart slain
Lost in translation, we got lost in translation (Mhm)
Heavy heart slain
Lost in translation, we got lost in translation (Whoa)
[Verse]
Yeah, check it out
Late-night calls, voice shakin'
If I said I wasn’t breakin’, I was lyin’
"Where she been?" They wonder
I respond, "She’s somewhere hidin', silence"
Wrote my pain about her, I wasn’t cryin’, you a crier
Yeah, nights in the mist
Whiskey and risk, reminiscent of bliss
Quickly diminished, every kiss
It’s not that I was missed, I just didn’t fix
Scribblin' in notebooks on the steps of the crib
And we used to set the tone
I was livin' on an overdrawn phone and a shot of broken hope
I ain’t have a home, Mishmei
Still the only one who held me up when I was cold
These reflections need some replacin’
If I said she wasn’t haunting, I was lyin’
Movin’ backwards, we stuck in the mazes
Tried to write about her, I wasn’t cryin’, you a crier
Warm, eyes filled with rain
Left me walkin’ in the flames, like a phantom in her way
From the Bay, faded skies turned gray
'Cause our scars crossed, but never could stay
[Chorus]
Heavy heart slain
Lost in translation, we got lost in translation (Mhm)
Heavy heart slain
Lost in translation, we got lost in translation (Whoa)
[Chorus]
Heavy heart slain
Lost in translation, we got lost in translation (Mhm)
Heavy heart slain
Lost in translation, we got lost in translation (Whoa)
[Outro]
[Fade]
