Motivation (English Translation) Lyrics – Guito’n

[Chorus]
Don’t read, don’t mix —
It’s always the other one who’s wrong.
You repeat the same old lines
And cry like you don’t belong.

[Verse 1]
People eaten by evil, people hiding evil inside.
One drowning every month, one sniffing lines to survive.
People grind to make it, people tell you it’s just luck.
People living in danger, people living in the cut.
People know how to speak, people know when to be quiet.
A failure tells you what’s coming — like he runs the riot.
People play with people, carefree hitting the hookah.
People making TikToks, people’s faces on the poster.
People hate on the ones who win, people learn from the ones who made it.
People know how to listen, people talk till you’re faded.
People always calm, people scream and make a scene.
People trapped inside the past — suffering in between.

[Pre-Chorus]
And you’re flexing on the photos
While your situation’s critical, bro.
Every problem, you run to the bottle,
And you’re praying someone stamps your visa to go.

[Chorus]
Don’t read, don’t mix —
It’s always the other one who’s wrong.
You repeat the same old lines
And cry like you don’t belong.

[Verse 2]
People in love with the pillow, people moving every day.
Between those who love the challenge and those who just complain.
People bring the solution, others stack up all the pain.
People plotting their tactics — waiting for the moment to reign.
People make decisions, people run from being accountable.
People speak the truth, people dodge the uncomfortable.
People deeply rotten even though they look clean.
People deeply strong even though they look lean.
People understand this world — never give trust, never slip.
People talk direct, others throw stones and dip.
The smell of smoke don’t always mean there’s a fire,
And the words of a fool stay far from what’s higher.

[Chorus]
It’s always the other one who’s wrong.
You repeat the same old lines
And cry like you don’t belong.

[Bridge – Direct Address]
And you — are you one who thinks, or is your brain locked up tight?
Let me speak from the end and let the mood shift tonight.
A failure’s still a failure even if you try to disguise it.
Don’t come at me with circumstances and poverty — I don’t buy it.
Poverty is a result, not a cause — get it straight.
You sleep all day dreaming of greatness — where’s the weight?
You sit around talking about buying your mama gold chains.
Ma’am — your son — when exactly did he push through the pain?
People come in types — where do you want to stand?
And who am I if I’m not the child of who raised this man?
Clean your heart out, my friend — be soft but be real.
Brother — did you actually think the hare would beat the tortoise deal?
Time is running — move, get out your house right now.
Act like you’re the sharpest one in the room — show them how.
You’re reading horoscopes — come here, I caught you slipping.
Mr. Normal — your ex just said she forgot you — stop tripping.

[Verse 3 – Philosophical Punch]
Nothing comes easy — that’s the law of this life.
You’re living in your body but forgot your mind — that’s the strife.
The more you run, the more the problems pile at your door.
Did you come to this world just to eat and drink — nothing more?
You tell me your jaw hurts from talking so much.
Brother, seriously — don’t dream of winning the lottery as a crutch.
Stop overthinking — work your brain, make it move.
A body without a mind is a weapon with nothing to prove.
Time is running and you’re sitting there scratching your head.
It’s hot in Tunisia and you think abroad will fix what you dread.
How long you gonna stay hesitant, scared and unsure?
And abroad, fool — at least keep quiet — that’s the cure.
Who’s gonna lose sleep tonight thinking about you — tell me?
Plan for tomorrow and leave your past behind — that’s the key.
The past is gone — you take the lessons, that’s it.
But crying over it will never earn you a cent, not one bit.
Seriously, right now you’re waiting on the government to save you.
Outside broke — try not to die invisible — that’s what they gave you.
Move straight in your mind — you have no right
To climb a rope while you’re digging a tunnel in the night.

[Outro – Personal Redemption]
I’m not better than you — I had a season where I slept too long.
I was the only one responsible — still complaining, still getting it wrong.
Alhamdulillah, I woke up — like I was born again today.
I put my trust in God and we started the album — that’s the way.

📖 Lyrics Meaning

This song is a harsh, confrontational critique of self-deception, blame-shifting, and victim mentality. The speaker calls out people who refuse to take responsibility for their lives, instead pointing fingers at others, crying over the past, and waiting for external saviors (government, lottery, emigration).

Key themes:

1. The “other one is always wrong” – The chorus mocks a common defense mechanism: never looking inward, always blaming someone else. The repetition of “same old lines” shows how predictable and empty this behavior is.

2. Human contradictions – The long lists in verses 1 and 2 paint a panorama of society: people who are evil or kind, strong or rotten, solution‑bringers or pain‑stackers. The point is that everyone chooses who to be — no one is purely a victim of circumstance.

3. Poverty as result, not cause – A bold claim: poverty is not an excuse; it is a consequence of choices and systems, but individual agency still matters. The speaker rejects “circumstances and poverty” as valid excuses for inaction.

4. Critique of performative suffering – Flexing on photos while running to the bottle, praying for a visa, waiting for the government — these are escapes, not solutions. The speaker calls this out brutally: “try not to die invisible.”

5. The mind as the real battlefield – “You’re living in your body but forgot your mind” means people have physical existence but no mental discipline. Overthinking, horoscopes, lotteries, and daydreaming are distractions from real work.

6. Time is running – Urgency is emphasized: stop hesitating, stop scratching your head. Moving abroad won’t fix internal problems. “At least keep quiet” abroad — meaning don’t export your complaints.

7. Personal accountability – The outro is key: the speaker admits he once slept too long, complained, and got it wrong. Then he woke up, thanked God, and started the album. He is not preaching from above; he’s sharing a hard‑earned lesson.

8. No sympathy for self‑pity – Lines like “crying over it will never earn you a cent” and “did you come to this world just to eat and drink?” reject passive sadness. Life demands movement, planning, and sacrifice.
