forgive me, mother,
for growing up too quickly,
for causing pain too early (i'm not sure about this line)
forgive me, mother,
i'm to blame for much,
forgive me for not becoming like my older brother,
my life, mother, is like a black and white movie
everything seems to be ok, but there's always one "but"
it's hard to understand why everything is like this,
specifically like this and not differently,
what does it mean?
wish me luck, mother,
the road is calling me,
you're hiding your tears, mother,
i'll be away for a long time,
i know you know, mother,
i know you believe, mother,
you believed ans you still believe in me,
and that's a lot,
and when the fate knocked me from my feet
through pain and desperation i heard the voice
saying "get up, son",
i dedicate this ballade to all the mothers
who give their love to us

tell me, mother, how much is my life worth?
my life is a drama, my soul is drawn to weep
tell me, mother, how much is my life worth?
my life is a drama, my soul is drawn to weep

during the hardest minutes of my life
when the death came very close
the stars -like sparks- were falling from the sky
and thoughts about you, mother, like
a ray of light
in search for an answer
in search for the way,
i gather my strenght an continue walking
forgive me for everything, mother,
i was to blame for much
but everything was left in the past,
you can't turn back time
i'm trying to get up from my knees
but something is stopping me from leaving the earth
i pray "God, give me strenght to understand what's bothering me,
who's gonna help me? Maybe, God, my faith is weak,
but wherever i was i remember these words
i'm sorry for saying them rarely
mother, i love you "

tell me, mother, how much is my life worth?
my life is a drama, my soul is drawn to weep
tell me, mother, how much is my life worth?
my life is a drama, my soul is drawn to weep

If you know the titles of the songs then it's very simply to find the lyrics: just type in any search engine (Google, Yahoo! or in the russian search engines - Yandex, Rambler, Апорт) the following string to search (without quotes): "текст песни Баста [here the title of the song goes]" & you'll get it just in a few seconds.

As for me, if I need some lyrics I always search them this way ;-)

Samaretz ты молодец!

DaFez I always find lyrics like described above, by Samaretz. And sometimes, if you are not sure about the title of the song (which I guess doesn't apply here), you can memorize a phrase/lyric and then type this phrase within quotes in google, along with the name of the singer/group and then it is almost possible that you will find something. If you are not sure about the phrase, or if you mishear a word, then don't type it within quotes.
