EMIRATES LYRICS – GEOLIER

[Strofa 1: Geolier]
M’arricorde tanti ccose
Tipo quando avette ‘a primma relazione
Oppure ‘a primma pistola
Pe te fa nu Lamborghini
Quando nn’sapevo nemmanco purtà a bici
Primma ‘e stà primmo in classifica ‘int’â FIMI
Aggio fatto na scummessa
Aggio jucato tutte cose ‘ncuoll’a mme e si perdesse?
Ess”a perso cchiù ‘e na vota
Cchiù ‘e na vota nn’aggio perso grazie a me, no grazie a loro
M’arricordo ‘a sensazione ‘e quando me luaeno ‘o cordone

Stongo alluccanno e nisciuno me capisce
Tante vale sto calmo e m’abituo a tutte cose
Ormaje so’ mise che scrivo tutt”e ccose che alla fine nu’ dico

[Pre-Ritornello: Geolier]
Guardo Napule ‘a ‘int’ô vetro ‘e l’Emirates
Songo triste comme si nun ce turnasse
Simmo ‘a prova ca nu’ conta si ce tiene
Simmo ‘a prova ca tutte cose nn’ce vò ‘o grazie

[Ritornello: Mavi Gagliardi & Geolier]
Quanta cose aggi”a fà pe me piglià ‘stu bbene
Chesta cosa ca nn’facesse, nn’m’arrennesse maje
Facesse ‘e tutto e dimmello
Quanta cose aggi”a fà pe me piglià ‘stu bbene
Chesta cosa ca nn’facesse, nn’m’arrennesse maje
Quanti ati cose aggi”a fà pe me piglià ‘stu bbene

[Strofa 2: Geolier]
Pluripremiato, multiplatino
Tutte quante songo tutte eguale
Cchiù ‘e coccheduno che m’ha biasimato po s’è ricreduto
E tutto ‘e forte ca se songo aizate po so’ ricadute
***, nun te risponno, chi sî?
Ê vvote nn’conta che tiene, ê vvote conta ‘e cchiù

Niente ê vote in fondo è tutto
Nun è nu milli o duje milli o tre figlie a carico
Si nn’sî purtato pe tené ‘e miliune, tuorna a ll’astico
Sta chi tene nu sacco ‘e sorde ma ‘e desse tutte quante
Pe luà chella macchia ‘a ‘int’â lastra
Sapimmo a macchia ‘e fierro, e i’ nun saccio mentì â guagliona
Sulo si se tratta ‘e femmene, e nonostante ‘e sorde simmo semplice

[Pre-Ritornello: Geolier]
Guardo Napule ‘a ‘int’ô vetro ‘e l’Emirates
Songo triste comme si nun ce turnasse
Simmo ‘a prova ca nu’ conta si ce tiene
Simmo ‘a prova ca tutte cose nn’ce vò ‘o grazie

[Ritornello: Mavi Gagliardi & Geolier]
Quanta cose aggi”a fà pe me piglià ‘stu bbene
Chesta cosa ca nn’facesse, nn’m’arrennesse maje
Facesse ‘e tutto e dimmello
Quanta cose aggi”a fà pe me piglià ‘stu bbene
Chesta cosa ca nn’facesse, nn’m’arrennesse maje
Quanti ati cose aggi”a fà pe me piglià ‘stu bbene

[Verse 1: Geolier]
This verse reflects on past memories, like the first relationship or the first experience with a gun. Geolier contrasts these with aspirations, like owning a Lamborghini, despite not even knowing how to ride a bike at the time. He recalls being at the top of the charts and making bets, emphasizing that even if he lost, it wasn’t due to himself but external factors. There’s a sense of isolation, feeling misunderstood despite trying to remain calm and adapt to everything. It ends on a contemplative note about writing down everything but ultimately not expressing it verbally.

[Pre-Chorus: Geolier]
Looking out at Naples through the window of the Emirates stadium, Geolier expresses a sense of sadness as if he might never return. It serves as proof that it doesn’t matter if one holds onto something, and it’s also proof that not everything needs gratitude.

[Chorus: Mavi Gagliardi & Geolier]

[Verse 2: Geolier]

He mentions those who initially criticized him but then changed their minds and the strength it took to rise again after setbacks. He questions who he is now and reflects on the superficiality of wealth, stating that despite having money, they remain simple. There’s a hint of regret and skepticism, particularly regarding relationships.

[Pre-Chorus: Geolier]
Similar to the previous pre-chorus, it expresses a sense of melancholy while looking out at Naples from the Emirates stadium, serving as proof that not everything will remain as it is.
