Aya Nakamura teams up with ARTY, Noxious, and Toto Beats for ‘Anesthésie,’ a defiant anthem about emotional armor. The Destinée track pulses with clipped rhythms and sharp confessions, showing Aya at her most unguarded. She drafts lyrics about betrayal and resilience, while the production crew wraps her words in icy synth stabs and trap-leaning beats.
Released: November 21, 2025
Anesthésie
Aya Nakamura • From “Destinée”
Anesthésie Lyrics Translation – Destinée Soundtrack
Aya describes building walls after betrayal, bluntly asking, ‘Where have certain friends gone, the ones I used to confide in?’ Her verses mix streetwise pride with sadness, especially when she admits past naivety: ‘Ouch, ouch, I admit I was naive before.’ The chorus lands like a shield, repeating ‘I’ve got my feelings anesthetized’ as both warning and victory chant.
Han-han-han-han-han-hanHan-han-han-han-han-han

Whip-smart and wounded, ‘Anesthésie’ proves Aya can turn pain into power. The meaning behind the song is self-protection as survival, wrapped in a melody that sticks like a tattoo.
