Bisogna Scrivere Lyrics in English Fabri Fibra
Fuoricampo literally translates to "outside the field" but in a sporting context, it means "home run" in baseball. It's an interesting word because it's a direct translation of an English sporting term, but it's not commonly heard in everyday Italian conversation or many songs.
In the song, Fabri Fibra uses it metaphorically to describe success, saying "Ogni lancio un fuoricampo" (Every throw is a home run). This implies that every effort or attempt he makes is a resounding success, making it a memorable and engaging word choice.
In "Bisogna Scrivere," which translates to "One Must Write," Italian rapper Fabri Fibra explores the creative process as a vital lifeline. He paints a picture of a life filled with contrasts: "slow peace, lightning war" and moods that go "up and down like a zipper." For him, writing is not just a job, it's a fundamental need. The chorus repeats the powerful idea that "It's necessary to believe / One must write / To be invincible." This suggests that his art is his shield, the very thing that keeps him going and makes him feel powerful in a world he finds confusing and sometimes unreal, where friends can feel like *"holograms."
Throughout the song, Fabri Fibra drops sharp observations and vivid, sometimes jarring, images. He compares his unfiltered words to a "placenta, after birth" and mocks unoriginal artists who are "all the same" like amateur porn sites. He also touches on a sense of alienation, seeing things that aren't there and feeling misunderstood by many. Ultimately, the track is a declaration of artistic survival. Writing and believing are presented as the essential tools to navigate life's dramas and to "continue to live even after death," securing a legacy through his words.
