Hi!

I recently was showing my international friends some Finnish rap and I wanted to show Pelkuri, which is a full 9 minute bitter track Gettomasa made about his alcoholic and physically violent/abusive father. It's an emotionally very heavy hitting song, which also opens up some deep generational trauma in many Finns (you can check the youtube comments on the song, this song has struck a nerve)

I tried to show the automatically translated lyrics for this song, but they just didn't do the song justice and decided to do the slow translation work, with correct meanings on the slang and references used (overall translating apps have some trouble translating Finnish slang and dialects). I think the song deserves even more recognition also internationally, so now there's a translation for the song, made by a person who's fluent in both English and Finnish.

I've heard that there is no way to directly translate it to English. I have also heard that it is not the same as willpower or determination, etc. can someone explain the difference to me? I tried another sub but was kind of met with a slightly rude response.
