Mural Lyrics (English Translation) – Pezet

Mural (English Translation) Lyrics Meaning

[Intro]
A casual shoutout, possibly to the producer or a friend.

[Verse 1]
Pezet starts by describing where he’s from—a tough, monotonous place without luxury or opportunity. There were no fancy glass houses or Montessori schools, just a rough neighborhood where survival mattered most. Some of his peers didn’t finish school, yet they became successful in their own way, hustling in the underground economy. The mention of carrying something “without a stamp” hints at illegal activities. Despite this, there are glimpses of indulgence, like eating cannoli, even if it’s out of place.

The tattoo “memento mori” (a reminder of death) symbolizes awareness of mortality, but in a place where drügs like opioids are common, people still numb themselves and forget. Fear lingers everywhere.

He then shifts focus to himself and Vkie, saying their names will soon be immortalized in a mural, a symbol of their influence. References to numbers (eight or twelve) and writing on a mural suggest past struggles and achievements now being recognized. Their success is compared to Max Verstappen, known for speed and dominance in Formula 1.

Pezet reflects on money—once confused about finance, he now finds it easier than learning the alphabet. He alludes to controversial political figures like Grzegorz Braun, suggesting he’s learned from them how to control and manipulate situations. Despite everything, his success feels effortless, like it runs on its own.

[Chorus]
The chorus reflects on past struggles and uncertainty. Standing on the pavement, he once felt lost, not knowing how to navigate life. But now, through hard work and sleepless nights, he has figured things out. The city remains cold and harsh—there’s no warmth or kindness. The repetition emphasizes the journey from confusion to understanding, from being voiceless to making an impact. Life hasn’t become easier, but he’s adapted and found his way despite the city’s tough environment.

[Verse 2]
Pezet clarifies that his lifestyle isn’t a trend—it’s his real life. He tells listeners to replay his words like a prayer, suggesting his music holds deep meaning.

His friends (amici) visit to hang out, but he reminds them to take what they deserve—life requires effort. The phrase “wind up” hints at preparation and professionalism, possibly in business or the streets. He describes how knowledge was poured into him like a guidebook (“Vademecum”), suggesting he learned valuable lessons early on. He jokes that hustling runs in his blood, implying his son might inherit the same mindset.

He calls himself “Pezet mobile perpetual motion,” emphasizing his nonstop work ethic. Money-making has become second nature—he pays taxes but doesn’t feel the loss, showing how much he earns. People (the “dogs”) keep talking about him, but he doesn’t care.

He mentions Vkie from Temu (possibly referencing social media or online presence) and jokes about his influence—despite not having kids, his impact is everywhere. He has no emotional attachments, focusing solely on financial stability. He doesn’t rely on loan companies like Provident, implying self-sufficiency. Finally, he reaffirms his and Vkie’s status as icons in the rap scene.

[Chorus]
The chorus repeats, reinforcing the theme of transformation. He used to be speechless, unsure of his direction, standing on the pavement with no clue how to move forward. But now, after sleepless nights and relentless work, he has clarity. The city remains tough, and kindness is rare, but he has learned to navigate it. The repetition emphasizes how the struggle shaped him. He acknowledges that nothing comes easy, but through perseverance, he has gained control over his life, proving that success is possible even in harsh environments.
