LANGKAH HIDUP

Here's the English version, simplified into 4 words per line to match your original tone—realistic, slightly sarcastic, but still holding on to hope:


[Verse 1]

Big dreams, bold steps,
Reality gives free tests.
Graduated, thought it’s success,
Now I ride ojol.


[Pre-Chorus]

"They’ll come" they said,
But my time’s late.
Sent resumes every day,
Got rejection mails instead.


[Chorus]

Life’s steps…
One forward, two back.
Like riding old bikes,
Throttle on, still slow.

They say “be patient,”
But patience drains me.


[Verse 2]

Friends married, bought homes,
I still save data.
Age twenty-five means stable?
My wallet’s losing weight.


[Bridge]

Maybe start from zero,
Or accept sandwich fate.
At least I’m breathing,
Dreams still quietly burning.


[Outro]

Still walking—just slower.
Late, but still moving.
Trying not to stop,
Let life keep going.
