Verse 1
I've tried to free myself from that sense of being unwanted
Or: I tried to get rid of that feeling of being unwanted
And I've failed a thousand times but I've tried
I've put weights on my back and then I fell
I've lost blood from my nose and I got up
Or: I've had a nosebleed and (then) I got up (again)
But at twenty years I already wonder if I'm too tired
Or: But at twenty years (old) already I ask myself if I'm too tired
If what I need is what I've desired
If one day I'll really succeed to be accomplished
And I'm scared
You stay an inch from my ass, d*ckhead
I've always chosen to be one and one only
Touch the sky and return to eating the asphalt
Or: Touch the sky and return to the ground
Sometimes I've cried, but that's not what stops me
I want my redemption
You stay an inch from my ass, d*ckhead
I've chosen to be one and only one
Touch the sky and return to eating asphalt
In the name of the Father, of the Son and Holy Spirit
Or: In the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit
In the name of the Father, of the Son, Holy Spirit
In the name of the Father, of the Son, Holy Spirit
Verse 2
Make spacce, make a lot
Because now the world is not enough for me, the stage is not enough for me
They've called me in every way, even a coward
Or: They called me every name imaginable, even a coward
I died more than a hundred times, never died in vain
You tell me what you're hiding, what's in your palm?
Why do you call me crazy after you look at me?
If you think that I've changed, that I'm someone else
You don't understand shit, so why the hell are you looking at me?
You stay an inch from my ass, I repeat it
I've chosen to look further ahead than what I see
My past I don't forget, I don't deny it
Hit hard, I don't fall, I stay standing
Or: Hit (me) hard, I don't fall (anyway), I'm still standing
You stay an inch from my ass, d*ckhead
I've chosen to be one and only one
Touch the sky and return to eating asphalt
In the name of the Father, of the Son and Holy Spirit
In the name of the Father, of the Son, Holy Spirit
In the name of the Father, of the Son, Holy Spirit
Verse 3
For what I've lived, the time that I've wasted
You thought that I was dead and then I was reborn
Have they ever told you what it's like to be an artist?
Of everything that I've lost, that I've sacrificed
Of not having a voice, being breathless
Or: About not having a voice, (about) being out of breath
Of having a thousand people who wait for your mistake
Or: Of having a thousand people waiting for you to make a mistake
Knowing that every misstep will be condemned
I wonder often if I was just lucky
And I don't overcome the motion of my anger
Or: And the anger inside me doesn't go away
I hope that my past takes away the paper
He's crazy, this is crazy, ask why I do it
In the name of the Father, of the Son, Holy Spirit

SONG MEANING

IN NOME DEL PADRE is Måneskin’s fiery rock confession. Over pounding riffs, frontman Damiano turns a sacred formula — “In nome del Padre, del Figlio e Spirito Santo” — into a defiant war cry that baptizes his doubts, nosebleeds, and sky-high ambitions all at once. He wrestles with feeling unwanted, wonders if twenty is already too late to be tired, then spits colorful insults at anyone standing too close. Every lyric swings between soaring triumph and face-first crashes onto asphalt, showing that the road to self-realization is paved with bruises, rage, and relentless hope.

Beneath the swagger lies a universal question: When will I finally feel enough? Måneskin offers grit rather than answers. They own their failures, critics, and sleepless nights, yet refuse to kneel. The result is a pulse-racing anthem for anyone judged, exhausted, or labeled “crazy” who still chooses to scream louder, climb higher, and keep marching forward — all in the name of every scar that made them.
