Do you ever wonder who you are without what you do?
Do you ever wonder if you're just what you do?
Nobody loved me
Maybe affection is a luxury
What I bought and what came naturally
It all came to me at some point
They say they never saw me, but
I did more just to be seen
On top of the pile of my corpses
A hill among green fields with my crucifix on it
And you wouldn't know how to love me anymore
If you saw me without what I have
Strip me down if you want to get hurt
You always leave the last petal
I wanted to understand who truly loved me
I wanted to understand how much money matters
I wanted to know if I was worth anything
I wanted to understand who I really was
I wanted to know the whole truth
I wanted to understand how much dreams matter
I wanted to know if I was worth anything
Without love, without status, without my money
A f*cked up past, I was so messed up
Now I have an Amex with no limit
How common it is to get hurt in these ALER housing projects
When you have to crack the system
To become a man there's no choice
There's only purity in narcotics
Tropical sun, what a palette
Flashes attack me, remembering the red of the police paddle
I'm rich, gratitude
I know who I am with it, who I am without it
You don't forget what you did to survive
Like my mom who stole food from the cafeteria
I was an impostor, I made myself king
Only with sweat, tears, and blood
Because I carried the cross on my back that
Now my Christ cries diamonds
I wanted to understand who truly loved me
I wanted to understand how much money matters
I wanted to know if I was worth anything
I wanted to understand who I really was
I wanted to know the whole truth
I wanted to understand how much dreams matter
I wanted to know if I was worth anything
Without love, without status, without my money
I wanted to understand who truly loved me
I wanted to understand how much money matters
I wanted to know if I was worth anything
I wanted to understand who I really was
I wanted to know the whole truth
I wanted to understand how much dreams matter
I wanted to know if I was worth anything
Without love, without status, without my money

SONG MEANING

Ever wondered who you are without your job, your status, or your things? That's the huge question at the heart of "VOLEVO CAPIRE," which translates to "I Wanted to Understand." In this raw and honest track, Madame questions everything. She feels she's fought hard just to be seen, and now she's terrified that the love she receives is conditional on her success. She asks a profound question: "Would you still love me if you saw me without what I have?" It’s a search for her true self, stripped bare of fame and fortune.

Then, rap legend Marracash steps in with his side of the story. He tells a classic rags-to-riches tale, starting from a "passato infame" (infamous past) and rising to incredible wealth. But here's the twist: he's already found the answer Madame is looking for. He knows his identity isn't tied to his bank account because he'll never forget the struggle and the "lacrime e sangue" (tears and blood) it took to get here. The song becomes a powerful conversation about what we're really worth when the money and success are gone.
