Statement 1/2 Lyrics Meaning

[Intro]
This part introduces Budda (Kamil L.) as a well-known Polish YouTuber, entrepreneur, and car enthusiast. It mentions that he is facing serious criminal charges, allegedly for being part of an organized crime group. The singerities (CBŚP) acted swiftly, raiding him just one day after he announced his retirement from YouTube. The intro sets the stage for the dramatic story that follows.

The verse describes the intense moment of Budda’s arrest. He was woken up early in the morning, not by an alarm clock but by law enforcement breaking into his place. Around 20 officers stormed in, making the situation overwhelming. He had just celebrated his 25th birthday, and within seconds, he was on the ground, handcuffed, and struggling to breathe. The whole thing felt surreal, almost like a bad joke. He was accused of being part of a criminal group, though he denies any wrongdoing. There were rumors that his wealth and expensive cars came from his father, but he sarcastically dismisses them. His assets were seized, his bank accounts frozen, and he had to call his lawyer. He feels like the singerities took things too far, treating him as if he had robbed a bank. They confiscated his possessions, including his car and personal belongings, making him feel like his success was being questioned unfairly.

This section highlights the scale of the case. A massive amount of money—90 million złotych—was frozen, and luxury cars worth nearly 40 million złotych were seized. Budda was one of nine people charged, emphasizing how serious the accusations were.

Budda reflects on how quickly his life changed. He was just a regular guy born in 1998, enjoying success, but suddenly, he was accused of tax fraud. Singerities claimed he had evaded massive amounts of VAT, but he insists the numbers were exaggerated. His expensive car was taken and hidden underground, and despite quitting YouTube, he was still being chased by cameras. The police searched for drügs, illegal money, or weapons, but he suggests they wouldn’t find anything useful. He asserts that he knows his legal rights well. Meanwhile, people filmed his arrest, turning his situation into a public spectacle. He sarcastically compares the situation to a video game, like having a five-star wanted level in GTA. The police parking lot was filled with his confiscated cars, making it feel like a complete overreaction.

This is a famous meme from *Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas*, used here to express frustration—he’s back in trouble again, just like in the game.

Budda sarcastically talks about the media and how people online, including police officers, seem eager to see him go down. He originally planned to focus on music and poetry, but instead, he’s dealing with a legal mess. Even during a gas station stop, he jokes about small things like coffee and a loyalty program, showing how absurd his life has become. As the hours pass, reality sets in—his case is all over the news, and even elderly people are talking about his arrest. The media now refers to him as “Kamil L.” instead of his online persona, and his face is being blurred in reports. When he arrives at the police station in Szczecin, they expect him to confess. The case files are so thick they resemble a novel. At first, he thought he would be released quickly, but as they present their evidence, he realizes the situation is more serious. However, he remains defiant, saying that he won’t go down easily—he considers himself a “shark” who can navigate these rough waters.
