Sigarette Lyrics in English Neffa

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Sigarette by Neffa from Italian to English.
What does it matter if I'm too late now
So what if the world forgets me later
Hot coffee in the cup, ringtone off my phone
There's still plenty of time for my bad habits
Cigarettes in the morning
Under this light rain
The hope of getting you back left long ago
Cigarettes in the morning
What does it matter if joy's on duty somewhere else
When there's a Bruce in my stereo who's gonna save me
Maybe if I changed my perspective
The long shadows wouldn't show
Maybe then the memories of you and me wouldn't burn like this
Cigarettes in the morning
Under this light rain
The hope of getting you back left long ago
Cigarettes in the morning
Come into my world so empty
Take a spin through my darkness
If there's already a fate for me or not-no
One day sooner or later it'll show itself
Cigarettes in the morning
Under this light rain
The hope of getting you back left long ago
Cigarettes in the morning
Cigarettes in the morning

SONG MEANING

Sigarette is Neffa’s rainy-morning confession. Picture him at the kitchen table, coffee steaming, phone silenced, and a thin drizzle tapping the window. With every drag of a cigarette he admits what hurts: time is slipping, the world might forget him, and the hope of winning back a lost love left long ago. Yet in the background Bruce Springsteen blasts from the stereo, a reminder that music can still swoop in and rescue a bruised heart.

The song turns everyday rituals into a bittersweet ritual. Cigarettes at dawn, memories that sting, and the thought that maybe a change of perspective could shrink those long shadows. Neffa invites us to wander through his “empty world,” to feel how bad habits and good melodies help him survive uncertainty until destiny finally shows its face. It is a melancholic groove wrapped in warmth, proving that even on the gloomiest morning, sound and smoke can keep a flicker of resilience alive.
