Время (Time) Lyrics – Егор Крид (Egor Kreed)

Время (Time) Lyrics Meaning

In the first verse of *Время (Time)*, Egor Kreed reflects on how far he’s come and the value of time. He mentions how time is priceless and that it isn’t about the money or material things, but rather the effort and work that has gone into achieving his success. He’s traveled to many cities and worked nonstop, never focusing on profits but rather on building his career. He emphasizes how his life has been shaped by hardships—growing up in poverty, where danger and failure were all around him.

Kreed then talks about his music, noting that his lyrics are valuable because they represent his life. Each live performance he does is meaningful and not just a show. He’s now in the center of attention, surrounded by expensive things, but he hasn’t forgotten where he came from. He remembers his humble beginnings and how people now show respect to him from all areas, even from places like Bутово, a district outside the city center.

The rapper points out how many other artists lie in their songs, but he’s honest—he admits that he sometimes lies to women to avoid appearing weak. He also touches on the emptiness of fame and luxury, describing a scene where he’s surrounded by women and money but still feels lonely inside. Even though people criticize him online, calling him “cringe” or a failure, he doesn’t let it affect him. He dismisses their comments, showing he’s unfazed by their negativity.

He acknowledges the critics, calling out the absurdity of it all but also embracing it as part of his artistic expression. Kreed uses metaphors like “first grade” to describe his excitement and nerves about pursuing his dreams. Even though he’s made it far, he’s still hungry for more, driven by his passion and belief in his future. The verse ends with Kreed expressing his commitment to his dreams, promising to achieve even more for his family and children.
