сега, Катя Аврора - Ностальгия
текст песни

My first verses emerged under a ban.
I find myself back within these walls again—it hurts me so much
To recall the things that weigh heavy on my veins.
Summer is behind me; I’m my own boss now.
Katya, do you remember how we started out together back then?
Rap music blasting from the speakers, a German car...
That winter, we were freezing cold.
But we didn't care; we kept writing these lines.
Yeah, we aren't prophets, but with every passing year,
We gain wisdom from the lessons we learn.
Autumn drifts down through the leaves...
Who, then, will tell me the truth?
I’m certainly no hero from some sappy romance movie—
Just try to understand, just try to forgive.
I am the hero of this autumn parade,
And all I ask is that my mother be happy—
Happy that her son is alive, and with a smile,
Ready to welcome the coming winter.
I’m sober today—and thank God for that.
I’ve let go of old grudges, as if laying them to rest at a wake.

Open your eyes—
What are they trying to say?
Nostalgia... nostalgia...
Nostalgia...

Open your eyes—
What are they trying to say?
Nostalgia... nostalgia...
Deep within my heart.

I remember how deeply hurt and offended I felt back then.
Now, I smile wryly at the past.
I offer up a prayer to the heavens; now, I truly believe in my Lord.
"Gentlemen, step aside—a dream lives on inside me!"

"Wait, wait! Where are you off to? We’re not heading the same way."
"Well, in that case... bye-bye!"
Look at all the lies I’ve survived—
You see? You tried to bury me back then, but look at me now!

And here I am—defying all odds—I’ve made it through, and without a single regret.
I remember it was tough, but hey—everyone’s allowed one slip-up, right?
I hit the brakes and got back on track—so once again, thank you, heavens above.
I cast out my demons now, breathing deep and free.
