DESIDERIO reflects Geolier’s inner conflict with fame, success, and the weight of expectations, revealing how public recognition can feel hollow when it costs innocence, humility, and real connection.

English Translation of “DESIDERIO” by Geolier

[Intro]
Yeah

[Verse 1]
My whole life written down in the morning paper
With people reading me, judging me
Never stopping once to think about what I did
To get up here where the vertigo hits suddenly
Success steals the best part of you
’Cause you gotta give it to the ones who listen
And who knows if they really hear me
Or they feel me only in the dead moments

This life keeps moving
The plane is going down, first class won’t save you
It’s just a softer way to die
Sometimes it’s stupid thinking that I’m tired
I’m just a picture on a poster
I’m just a voice you don’t hear, you just watch
I’m just a human who made it
’Cause I still had more things to say
And not because…
This chain around my neck just weighs me down (Yeah)
I woke up, the night left me suggestions (Yeah)
This money was only a consequence
When you know if you turn around, it all falls first
“How can you still be sad?
How can you still be sad?
How do you hold all this together?”
I don’t break, I always resist, yeah

[Chorus]
I only ever wished for one thing
We were richer back when we had nothing
In an old photograph it’s still us there
I don’t see the light ’cause the light is us
There’s still a couple wishes left inside
This money only makes life less beautiful

Love don’t mean much when it isn’t real
And you stay innocent, another wish

[Verse 2]
Come here, take another picture
I’m just a trophy in a gallery
I’m eating a lot without any hunger
I asked for everything with arrogance
All these people clap, they give you emotion
But if they want, they’ll execute you
I had a mission: make my father proud (And no)
I was tired even when I slept, even when I rested
With these hands I climbed a mountain
That’s why when I eat, I don’t wash them
Knife wounds counting on my back
Never a hand that gave me a push
That’s why I only say thanks to my mother
Or for a photo taken with a fan, yeah
Rain pouring, I’m soaked to the bone
I’ve only got one companion left
And he still calls me Manuele
Doesn’t even know my stage name
I’m losing my humility
I’m winning every race
Before the world goes to hell
I gotta pull off another miracle

[Chorus]
I only ever wished for one thing
We were richer back when we had nothing
In an old photograph it’s still us there
I don’t see the light ’cause the light is us
There’s still a couple wishes left inside
This money only makes life less beautiful
Love don’t mean much when it isn’t real
And you stay innocent, another wish

[Outro]
You stay innocent, another wish
It’s us, I don’t see the light
I don’t see the light

Meaning of ‘DESIDERIO (English Translation)’ Lyrics Explained

Intro Meaning:
The opening sets a calm but serious mood, like he’s taking a breath before opening up. That simple sound feels like a pause before he starts sharing heavy thoughts about his life and emotions.

Verse 1 Meaning:
He talks about how his life feels exposed, as if it’s written in newspapers for everyone to read, judge, and comment on. People see the results of his success but rarely think about the effort, pain, and sacrifices it took to reach this point. Being at the top brings dizziness, pressure, and confusion rather than peace. He explains that success can take away the best parts of you, because you’re forced to give your energy, time, and emotions to the audience. Even then, he questions whether people truly understand him or only connect during sad or dramatic moments. Life doesn’t slow down for anyone, and he compares it to a falling plane where status and comfort don’t really protect you. He admits feeling tired, then criticizes himself for even feeling that way, since others only see him as an image, a poster, or entertainment. Deep down, he sees himself as a normal person who succeeded because he still had something important to say, not because of material things. The chain around his neck represents both fame and wealth, which feel heavy rather than freeing. He reflects on how money came as a result, not the goal, and how everything feels fragile if he ever looks back. When people ask how he can still feel sad despite having everything, he answers by showing his strength. He keeps himself together by refusing to break, even when the weight becomes overwhelming.

Chorus Meaning:
He shares that his deepest desire was never about money or fame. He feels life was richer emotionally when he had nothing and shared genuine moments with people he loved. Old memories hold more light than his current success. To him, real warmth comes from human connection, not wealth. He believes money often takes beauty away from life instead of adding to it. Love also loses value when it becomes fake or transactional. One of his quiet hopes is to protect innocence, both his own and that of the people close to him, because that purity feels rare and precious now.

Verse 2 Meaning:
He describes feeling like an object on display, constantly asked to pose and perform, more like a trophy than a person. He admits he consumes more than he needs, even without real desire, showing emotional emptiness. He reflects on how ambition once pushed him to demand everything without humility. Applause and praise feel powerful, but he knows the same crowd could turn against him at any moment. One of his biggest motivations was making his father proud, yet that goal feels complicated and unresolved. Exhaustion followed him even during rest, showing how mental pressure never leaves. He reminds listeners that he climbed his way up alone, earning everything through struggle and pain, symbolized by scars and wounds. Because no one helped him, his gratitude is reserved for his mother and a few sincere moments with fans. He paints an image of being soaked in rain, emotionally and physically drained, with only one true friend left. That friend calls him by his real name, not his stage name, highlighting real loyalty. While he’s winning in life publicly, he worries about losing humility. He feels time is running out and believes he must keep achieving miracles before everything collapses.

Chorus Meaning:
Once again, he returns to the idea that his heart’s wish was never luxury. He remembers a time when emotional wealth mattered more than money. Shared memories and togetherness felt like true light in his life. Even now, he holds onto a few hopes that haven’t disappeared. He feels money has complicated life instead of improving it. When love becomes artificial, it loses its power. Preserving innocence stands out as a quiet, meaningful wish that still matters deeply to him.

Outro Meaning:
The ending gently repeats the desire to protect innocence. He suggests that real light doesn’t come from outside success, but from shared bonds. Without that connection, everything else feels dark.
