Description
It smells of burning, sarcasm, and hope that at least some of the adults know what they are doing. The voice sounds like it's coming from a radio from the days of apathy: a little punk, a little prayer. Here, the flags fade not from the sun, but from meaninglessness, and faith in change is like an old battery: it seems to have power, but the flashlight is already flickering.
Each line is like a note in a correspondence between generations, where instead of emojis there is fatigue and anger, and instead of inspiration there is dry irony. The world is collapsing, rebooting, arguing with itself, but in this music, the heart still beats - stubborn, noisy, alive. The kind that doesn't give up, even if there are “power outages” all around again.
Lyrics and translation
Original
Tiang masih berdiri
Bendera makin tinggi
Berkibar tiap pagi
Dimakan matahari
Merah makin memudar
Yang bunglon merasa benar
Putih makin menguning
Yang pintar masih berpaling
Ditinggal beasiswa
Tenang, Kawan, tak apa
Bertahan buat apa?
Belum ada artinya
Masih dipeluk setan
Alergi peradaban
Alergi kemajuan
Mendorong kemunduran
Pemimpin di esok hari
(Adakah yang cukup mampu)
Mewakilkan suara kami?
(Jelas, tak ada yang tahu!)
Ada yang cukup peduli
Umat yang dikelabui
Melupakan masa lalu
(Namun, kami belum tentu!)
Earth-03, kerusuhan lagi
Earth-04, perang nuklir lagi
Jadikan pelajaran
Jangan sampai rusak beneran
Earth-02 masih main tusuk
Tiap hari kian buruk
Ayo, cepat, mending rujuk
Jangan sampai salah tunjuk
Pemimpin di esok hari
(Adakah yang cukup mampu)
Mewakilkan suara kami?
(Jelas, tak ada yang tahu!)
Ada yang cukup peduli
Umat yang dikelabui
Melupakan masa lalu
(Namun, kami belum tentu!)
Pemimpin di esok hari
(Adakah yang cukup mampu)
Mewakilkan suara kami?
(Jelas, tak ada yang tahu!)
Ada yang cukup peduli
Umat yang dikelabui
Melupakan masa lalu
(Namun, kami belum tentu!)
Apa guna gelar kami?
(Siapa yang sudah tahu)
Jadi apa tua nanti?
(Tentu, kami belum tahu!)
Tumblr, Reddit diblok lagi
(Siapa bilang situs biru?)
Untuk apa terkoneksi
(Jika masih mati lampu?)
Cukup dikasih hati
(Masih minta tambah paru)
Pura-pura bersih lagi
(Bagaikan Kalpataru)
Jelas-jelas tangan besi
(Masih berlagak rindu)
Sembah Tuhan tiap Minggu
(Tapi masih lempar batu)
Ada yang cukup peduli
Umat yang dikelabui
Melupakan masa lalu
(Namun, kami belum tentu!)
Ada yang cukup peduli
Umat yang dikelabui
Melupakan masa lalu
(Namun, kami belum tentu!)
English translation
The pole still stands
The flag is getting higher
Fluttering every morning
Eaten by the sun
The red is fading
The chameleon feels right
The white is getting yellower
The smart ones still look away
Missed the scholarship
Relax, friend, it's okay
Survive for what?
It doesn't make any sense yet
Still being held by the devil
Civilization allergy
Allergy progress
Encourage setbacks
Tomorrow's leader
(Is anyone capable enough)
Represent our voice?
(Obviously, no one knows!)
Some people care enough
People who are deceived
Forgetting the past
(However, we don't necessarily!)
Earth-03, riots again
Earth-04, another nuclear war
Make it a lesson
Don't let it really get damaged
Earth-02 is still playing stabs
Every day it gets worse
Come on, hurry up, it's better to reconcile
Don't get it wrong
Tomorrow's leader
(Is anyone capable enough)
Represent our voice?
(Obviously, no one knows!)
Some people care enough
People who are deceived
Forgetting the past
(However, we don't necessarily!)
Tomorrow's leader
(Is anyone capable enough)
Represent our voice?
(Obviously, no one knows!)
Some people care enough
People who are deceived
Forgetting the past
(However, we don't necessarily!)
What is the use of our title?
(Who already knows)
So what's old then?
(Of course, we don't know yet!)
Tumblr, Reddit blocked again
(Who said blue site?)
Why connect?
(If the lights are still off?)
Just give it a heart
(Still asking for more lungs)
Pretending to be clean again
(Like Kalpataru)
Obviously an iron fist
(Still acting like I miss you)
Worship God every Sunday
(But still throwing stones)
Some people care enough
People who are deceived
Forgetting the past
(However, we don't necessarily!)
Some people care enough
People who are deceived
Forgetting the past
(However, we don't necessarily!)
