ZEKI - Back In Time [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[VERSE 1]

I was sitting in my home
When I heard the news of another bomb
This time they took some siblings from my city
Somebody showed me a picture of the children, what a pity
They were both about my age, some handsome college student
The girl was beautiful, who did this to them
I wished to go back in time
To save their parents from an endless cry
I fell on my knees an prayed that night
I woke up in a place strange at first sight
Everybody was happy, I wondered where am I
As I slowly opened my eyes
I saw a sign that welcomed me to paradise
I guess my prayers were returned
I started running faster than the light
Tears running down my face, it's like I'm dreaming
I got distracted, by some buildings and I ran into
Some lady, this is crazy!!!
My mind froze I was paralyzed
As I looked up in her eyes
I realized, that this is the girl that made me cry
She is gonna' die!

[Chorus]

(We can't escape our fate
Our names are written on a date
Maybe not today
We're gonna meet our graves)

I wish I could die instead
Cas' I can't let you suffer pain
You were a beautiful soul
Now tell me what did they murder you for
We cry for ones that love us
Sigh for those who know us
Fail to see we are all equal in this place above us
Yeah, we never give a fuck
When the person that dies
Is a stranger, once you look into their eyes
Please God let me go back in time!

[VERSE 2]

Hey pretty angel
I know I'm just a stranger
I travelled back in time
To warn you of a deadly danger
I know it's hard to believe when we're locked inside this chamber
The prison of our minds, won't let you see what's never written on a paper
You know those protests that you saw in Egypt, in Tunisia
I know you don't believe, but they will be in Syria
And very soon,blood will be shed
And it's mysterious
Who brought this curse upon our land
See, things will get out of hand
In just a year so many of us will be dead
In two, our people will dreaming for some bread
Instead, I came to warn everybody, a year ahead
But nobody wants to listen
So please hear me for a minute
I'm on a mission
To save our people
And I chose you cas' your story made me cry
I'm just a lonely musician
That had to come and tell you that
(explosion)
You...you are gonna die!

[Chorus]

[VERSE 3]

Your beautiful face had faded in the night
We both grew up in these hard times
When we saw peace on the television
Never in our hearts
I saw your mother, she just couldn't stop to cry
But I know she gone be alright
Her baby is now in heaven, she don't have to fight
I didn't know you but I know you were the light
For so many people, and it just isn't right
That you had to die
In this cold world
Is it our destiny
We rose from the Middle East
Witnessed heaven fall deceased
And it's funny cas' there's 7 billion and not one of them gives a shit
To them your death is just another TV switch
Rest in peace little angel, I'm sorry that you had to leave
Look away from our country, please wipe your tears
We gone be alright
Because as long as I breathe, I will never cease to resist

[Chorus]
