What is your occupation?
I am a father
A-your brothers call me 'Dad'
All your efforts are in vain
They say every night has a morning
Your night won't be the morning
Forgive me, I am not patient
Damn, I'm so good
I beat everyone without realizing it
I don't even realize that
Sorry, have we met?
Are we getting used to these?
Someone's running behind me, but
Damn, were we racing?
I put it on my waist, it comes right away
I'm broken, I know that
Says 'You are threatening me'
No threat, I'm letting you know
I'll find you sooner or later
What's it like to be me?
Do you understand now, brother?
Your brothers call me 'Dad'
All your efforts are in vain
They say every night has a morning
Your night won't be the morning
Forgive me, I am not patient
Damn, I'm so good
I beat everyone without realizing it
I don't even realize that
Your brothers call me 'Dad'
All your efforts are in vain
They say every night has a morning
Your night won't be the morning
Forgive me, I am not patient
Damn, I'm so good
I beat everyone without realizing it
I don't even realize that

KıyamamI can't bear it / I can't bring myself to do it

Kıyamam is a versatile Turkish word that expresses a strong sense of tenderness, pity, or an inability to harm or be harsh towards someone or something.

In the context of the song, the artist uses it playfully when he says, "Kıyamam, yarışıyo' muyduk biz?" (I can't bear it, were we even racing?). It implies a mock-pity for those trying to compete with him, suggesting they are so far behind that it's not even a fair competition, making the word both engaging and a bit boastful.

BLOK3's "BABA" is a super confident track where he asserts his dominance and success. He's basically saying, "What's your profession? I'm 'Baba' [Father/Boss]!" meaning he's the one in charge. He even mentions, "A-abilerin bana diyo' 'Baba'" [Your older brothers call me 'Baba'], which really drives home that respect he commands.

He's not holding back, telling others their efforts are in vain: "Sizin boşa bütün çaba" [All your efforts are in vain]. He's so good, he's beating everyone without even realizing it: "Fark etmeden herkesi yenmişim / Farkında bile değilim ki" [I've beaten everyone without noticing / I'm not even aware of it]. It's a fun, boastful track about being at the top of your game!
