Teşekkürler Lyrics – Ceg

Teşekkürler Lyrics Meaning

[Giriş]
Just a shoutout to the producer starting the beat.

[Verse 1: Ceg]
He’s reflecting on moving into his granddad’s house when he was sixteen, already carrying emotional weight and a chaotic mind. Life was rough from the start, and he faced pain that shaped him early on. He uses a sharpener on a pencil like a knife, showing how deep his wounds go—both mentally and emotionally. He didn’t have support; he made it on his own, and he doesn’t count just streams as real success. He’s proud of being one of the top lyricists. His image might be wild or rebellious, but it’s all intentional and authentic. He’s learned to stay distant from love and now channels all that life experience into his success. He once only wanted to travel in style with a Rolex. People wanted to see him locked up, but he was just hungry for success. He’ll devour it until he’s full, even if it means overdoing it. He rebelled using words, could’ve ended up dead or in jail, but instead, he rose. His ego is big, but it’s real. He pushed through like a conqueror and sweat for this. While he could thank his fans, his way of saying thanks is sarcastic, like a football player’s quiet confidence.

[Köprü: Ceg]
A breath or pause between thoughts.

[Nakarat: Kozmos]
At one point, the person meant nothing to him, but they made him feel like he couldn’t be beaten. He had tough times and it was partly his own fault. When it was time for payback, he took it confidently. Every step was difficult, but these struggles built him. He thanks his enemies for making him stronger. People tried to cheat or mock him, but he kept growing stronger each day. He always dreamed of making it and staying up, and he refuses to fall now.

[Verse 2: Ceg]
He talks about how hard he worked—he stayed determined, kept writing, recording, and taking big risks. Whether he won or lost, he stayed committed. He even throws a diss, saying his haters helped shape who he is. When he’s not in a good mood, he feels like a storm, and his anger shows in his lyrics like poetic violence. He compares himself to a powerful religious figure, ready to fight for his own world order. He wishes he could do trendy pop songs and win mainstream awards, but that’s not who he is. If he gave a thank-you speech, it’d be way too long because so many people fueled his grind. He’s grateful to all the labels who rejected him—they pushed him harder. From his early mixtape days to now being famous, he never gave up. He faced betrayal and backstabbing, had people trying to trip him up. Now, he keeps his circle small, has more money, and a pool in his yard. Since he got famous, he’s lacked nothing. His success made some people uncomfortable. Teachers who tried to break him didn’t kill him but hurt him deeply. He was told he’d be nothing—but without that, he wouldn’t have become who he is.

[Nakarat: Kozmos]
The person he once saw as worthless made him feel unstoppable. He got hurt many times, mostly due to his own choices. But when it was his moment, he didn’t hesitate to take it. Climbing up was tough, but it made him who he is, so he’s thankful. His enemies gave him strength, even the liars and backstabbers. They laughed at him, but he just kept getting stronger. He dreamed of this every day and never let himself fall.

[Çıkış: Cardi B]
He’s playfully giving credit to his haters—they motivated him a lot.
