Traducao (Portugues)

Deixa eu te dizer algo que voce ja sabe. O mundo nao e feito so de sol e arco-iris. E um lugar muito cruel e desagradavel. E eu nao me importo o quao durão voce e, ele vai te colocar de joelhos. E te manter la permanentemente, se voce deixar. Voce, eu, ou ninguem vai bater tao forte quanto a vida. Mas nao se trata de quao forte voce bate. Se trata de quao forte voce pode apanhar e continuar seguindo em frente. O quanto voce aguenta e continua seguindo em frente. E assim que se vence! Agora, se voce sabe o quanto vale, va la fora e busque o que voce vale. Mas voce tem que estar disposto a aguentar os golpes. E nao ficar apontando o dedo dizendo que nao esta onde quer por causa dele, ou dela, ou de ninguem. Covardes fazem isso e voce nao e assim. Voce e melhor que isso! Eu sempre vou te amar, nao importa o que aconteça. Nao importa o que aconteça. Voce e meu filho e meu sangue. Voce e a melhor coisa da minha vida. Mas ate voce comecar a acreditar em si mesmo, nao vai ter uma vida.
