“Battito” literally means heartbeat, and Fedez turns that steady thump-thump into the soundtrack of a love-story gone haywire. The lyrics plunge us into the mind of someone who is simultaneously magnetised and poisoned by a partner: they crave a hug, then beg for space; they see the glass half-full, yet taste the “two drops of venom” floating inside. References to therapy, antidepressants and racing pulses paint a vivid picture of anxiety sparked by a toxic romance.
Think of it as an emotional roller-coaster set to a pounding beat. Every verse swings between tenderness and self-defence, from “stringimi, avvolgimi” (hold me, wrap me up) to “basta che resti lontana da me” (just stay away from me). Broken glass, shattered dreams and a sky that even looks black underscore the damage, while the repeated word “battito” reminds us that, no matter how bruised, the heart keeps hammering on. Fedez mixes raw confession with catchy hooks, turning personal turmoil into a track that makes you dance, think and maybe check your own pulse.
