Verse 1
Yeah, I don't even miss the air, however much I smoke
Don't even ask how much I make, you know it's a sure thing
I wonder, nothing remains, if Jesus remains merciful
I have everything in my hands, it doesn't weigh on me, I can't put it down
I'd rather never betray
Let me die right now
I got bros who don't talk, they act, they get it if I tell 'em now
The Africa Twin is deadly
I've always been careful
I've had serious ties, not before they were worth it
Real forever
Till they hold my funeral
I'm traveling careful, thirty degrees inside the car
I don't tell you which Emirate I'm in, so picture it
Same car as always, picture it
Chorus 1
The four of us fell asleep on a couch
We were only thinking about sleeping, that was already a lot
Nobody lent a hand when we had nothing
And they invite us to eat now that we're not hungry
You'd die for me
The truth grows inside you
I'd shoot myself if it would take away all this suffering I carry
Nothing will remain, I will become a legend
Gunshots and sniffing, for those who talk with the stars
I wanted to act tough but I overdid it
Bro, I used to freeze in winter
Verse 2
I deserve the stuff I got now
Poison in your body numbs the pain
I swear, I don't care about money
I've got one life, I have to leave a mark on it
Red cars don't give you worth
A brother's locked in a cage and can't wait to get out
I bought a watch but when I wear it
I make sure the hoodie covers me
Girls with girls make a fuss
I pray to God that maybe he absolves me
Put these things down, they're safe
I can't really know myself deep down
Maybe there's another person deep down
When you undress, they're stripping you and you strip them
When you dress, everyone fends for themselves, you don't think
We're like bullets, we watch you and go straight through
That's why I grab dad's hand when I cross
For my bro who pawned his gold to buy the ride
It cost three grand, we paid five with interest
I don't rule, I give you both hands if you count me as your brother
Maybe I rule at home and we have bags full of the cash we make
Chorus 2
The four of us fell asleep on a couch
We were only thinking about sleeping, that was already a lot
Nobody lent a hand when we had nothing
And they invite us to eat now that we're not hungry
You'd die for me
The truth grows inside you
I'd shoot myself if it would take away all this suffering I carry
Nothing will remain, I will become a legend
Gunshots and sniffing, for those who talk with the stars
I wanted to act tough but I overdid it
Bro, I used to freeze in winter

ruoss — rich

Ruoss is a Neapolitan dialect word meaning "rich" or "wealthy." It's a compelling choice because it immediately highlights the regional flavor of the song, as it's not standard Italian.

In the context of the lyrics, "M vulev fa ruoss mag esagerat" translates to "I wanted to get rich, even exaggeratedly so." This word encapsulates the song's theme of ambition, struggle, and the desire for success, making it both culturally interesting and central to the narrative.

Geolier is reflecting on his journey from having nothing to his current success, and he's not forgetting who was there for him. He paints a picture of his past, remembering when "Ciamm addurmut 4 e nuij ngop a nu rivan" (The four of us fell asleep on a sofa). Back then, nobody helped them out, but now that he's famous, everyone wants a piece of the action: "Nisciun cia rat na man quant no tnevm / E cinvitn a mangia mo ca ntimm famm" (Nobody gave us a hand when we had nothing / And they invite us to eat now that we're famous).

Even with all the success, like traveling in the Emirates, he still feels the weight of his past and the pain he carries. He says, "M sapiss soara si srvess a lua tt sta sofferenz c teng" (I would know how to fly if it served to take away all this suffering I have). The song is a declaration of loyalty to his real friends and a promise to himself to stay true. He's determined to leave his mark, stating boldly, "Nu riman sarrag leggend" (Tomorrow I will be a legend).
