Nero Bali Lyrics in English ELODIE , Michele Bravi, Guè Pequeno

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Nero Bali by ELODIE from Italian to English.
I've done things I wouldn't do again
Afternoons spent reading useless magazines
With a void in my stomach, on chemicals at parties
But what do you know about chemistry if
You mix love with interest?
Don't take it personally
I don't care about pleasing anymore
But whoever judges without knowing
I prefer confrontation over masks
I don't feel like dressing up at home anymore
We've still got our whole lives for an excuse
To fly down the highway with Cuban music on the radio
Let's throw our phones into the sea
You see black, I see Bali
You see black, I see Bali
You see black, I see Bali
I've done things I wouldn't do again
Making a toast at dinners
Between boredom and recklessness
Having to be rude
Because of too much familiarity
But is it my fault if
being human has no expiration date?
Don't take it personally
I don't care about laughing anymore
At the words of those who don't get that
Just staying quiet is enough to care about each other
I don't feel like dressing up at home anymore
We've still got our whole lives for an excuse
To fly down the highway with Cuban music on the radio
Let's toss our phones in the air
You see black, I see Bali
You see black, I see Bali
You see black, I see Bali
My mind travels first class
I really miss you, I feel it through the speakers
If she misses me, I'm different from the masses
Let's fly away from here, from fake people
I just fell in love with freedom
Against the grain I say everything I feel like
I'll bring the whole family when I leave
Till dawn in Bali I'll fly with my mind
Till dawn, Bali, I'll fly with my mind
No desire anymore to dress up at home
We've still got our whole lives for an excuse
To fly down the highway with Cuban music on the radio
Let's toss our phones in the air
You see black, I see Bali
You see black, I see Bali
You see black, I see Bali
You see black, I see Bali
You see black, I see Bali

SONG MEANING

Nero Bali is an anthem of escape and self-liberation. ELODIE, Michele Bravi, and Guè Pequeno paint a vivid contrast: while someone else “sees black,” they picture sunny Bali. The lyrics reject fake smiles, shallow parties, and the pressure to impress. Instead, they celebrate tossing phones in the air, blasting Cuban music on the highway, and traveling first-class in the mind. It is a playful way of saying, “I choose light over gloom, freedom over appearances.”

At its heart, the song invites listeners to drop judgment, shrug off social masks, and chase real connection. Mistakes were made, yes, but the future is wide open for spontaneous adventures and heartfelt conversations. If life starts to feel gray, crank up Nero Bali and remember: paradise can begin in your own attitude.
