Николай Кузнецов - Выбор
текст песни

I don't wait at the threshold of fate,
I'm not calling anyone - don't rush
I'm not wearing a dress from a thin dream,
And in determination - from toe to eyelashes

I don't beckon, I don't hide, I don't lie,
I’m not pretending, I’m not languishing
I'm standing and there's space around
He chooses me piece by piece

It’s not the man who decides whether she is or not,
It's not chance that brings us together, as in the novel
I am not a goal, not a prize, not an answer,
I am a process I am in motion, in plan

Every day I choose myself
Among fears, doubts, losses
I'm not the one who catches anyone,
I'm not the home you want to believe in

I don't cling - I let go
Everything that lies, that presses, is silent
I don't take revenge - I just forgive
Those who are nearby, but their hearts are in others

I won't let myself be unworthy
Your honor, your heights
I will not become a stranger and my own
At the whim of other people's turns

I'll say no - and it's not a cry,
Not hysteria, not manipulation
This is a choice, my quiet double -
Strength grown from fatigue

I'm not looking for someone to complete me,
Who will save me, who will restore my peace?
I am already whole, I am not a snake,
What bites its empty tail

I am not a shadow, not a reflection of him,
I am the source I am the light I am the beginning
And love is not salvation, no,
This is a meeting of equals, by right, by ball

I don't fall victim, I don't cry,
I don't play Do you love me?
I'm standing and when you come,
You won't choose, you will meet

And then the question is whether she is or not?—
You just find out she
Because she is not an object
And a space where you can be...
