Halkalar
Fredd | Mâi
Halkalar Lyrics Translation – Fredd | Mâi
Fredd describes the weight of daily life, with paperwork piling up and streets filled with plastic. He talks about a stubborn self-awareness and a life shaped by struggle. He admits ‘You know I was a difficult person’ (Zor Biriydim Biliyorsun), accepting his own role in the chaos that surrounds him.
Calsin Guzelligin OmurdenLet your beauty steal from my years,
Zayif Dussun Halkalarlet the links grow weak.
Dolar Kagitlar Ve Birbirine YapismazThe papers fill up but won’t stick together.
Romantik Mi SonbaharIs autumn really romantic?
Ben Ustumde DosyalarI’ve got files piled on top of me,
Sokaklar Pet Dolu Ve Icleriyse Kapkarathe streets are full of plastic, and they’re pitch black inside.
Ne Yaptiysam Kendime BenWhatever I did, I did to myself.
Bekledigim Yok HayattanI’ve got no expectations left from life.
Fazla Geldi CefamMy suffering became too much,
Sefa Surecek Kimim Varwho do I have to share the pleasure with?
Kendim Icin AyaktayimI’m standing on my own for myself,
Benle Duscek Talibim Cokthough many are waiting for me to fall.
Zor Biriydim BiliyorsunYou know I was a difficult person,
Kizmiyorum Ona Bunu Hak EdiyodumI’m not mad at them, I deserved this.
Bagimliyim Kendime De GelemiyorumI’m addicted to myself and I can’t snap out of it,
Ben Dogrulari Goremiyorum GalibaI guess I can’t see the truth anymore.
Evde Parke Sayilari Kadar AtakI’ve got as many attacks at home as there are floorboards,
Mani Donem Trip Biraz Dudaklarim Ayazmanic episodes and trips, my lips are freezing.
Duman Zarif Ama Ey Cigerlerim SakatThe smoke is elegant, but my lungs are ruined.
Ne Zaman Ki Sivrilirsin O Zaman AkarWhenever you stand out, that’s when things flow.
Ne Kadar S#kildiginle Alakali HayatLife is all about how much you get ‘f#cked’ over.
Bad Emotional StresBad emotional stress,
Attik Onu Ey God Blesswe’ve tossed it aside, oh God bless.
Bir Iki Hit Bot TrapezA hit or two, bots and trapeze.
Bad BadBad, bad.
Cig Kafa Bizi Sarmadi Muhabbet YeahThis raw mindset, the talk didn’t interest us, yeah.
Kiriktim On Uc umde KafadanI was broken in the head at thirteen,
Korkum Yok Bu Yuzden S#kimde Degil Favelan YeahI’ve got no fear, so I don’t give a ‘f#ck’ about your ghetto, yeah.
Bu Buyu Sanki BabylonThis spell is just like Babylon,
Soyle Bakim Ben Hakkinda Ne Biliyon Yeahtell me, what do you even know about me? Yeah.
Vururum Istedigimde MillionI’ll hit a million whenever I want,
Biliyon Bro Ey Benden Iyi Biliyon Yeahyou know it bro, you know it better than I do, yeah.
Ya Siyah Ol Ya BeyazEither be black or be white,
Bizden Olamadi Gri Owe could never be grey.
Zor Biriydim BiliyorsunYou know I was a difficult person,
Kizmiyorum Ona Bunu Hak EdiyodumI’m not mad at them, I deserved this.
Bagimliyim Kendime De GelemiyorumI’m addicted to myself and I can’t snap out of it,
Ben Dogrulari Goremiyorum GalibaI guess I can’t see the truth anymore.
Zor Biriydim BiliyorsunYou know I was a difficult person,
Kizmiyorum Ona Bunu Hak EdiyodumI’m not mad at them, I deserved this.
Bagimliyim Kendime De GelemiyorumI’m addicted to myself and I can’t snap out of it,
Ben Dogrulari Goremiyorum GalibaI guess I can’t see the truth anymore.
