Description
We're runnin' around, being fed up, our heads are empty.
Sittin' in the dirt till to the neck, having holes in the hearts,
drowning our worries and problems with a cup of wine
we've got nothing better than a smile of stone.
Tomorrow we forgot who we were yesterday,
being not able to get enough of it and forgot to pay for it.
We've got everything left for more ash and dust.
We all want that it suits but we don't look for it.
The voice of reason has muted for long, we can't listen to it.
'Cause sometimes we've got the feeling that we don't belong to here.
There's no backwards, no forwards just down and up.
One out of hundred millions, just a small dot above the ground

I lift up ...

I lift up. Nothing can keep me on the ground.
Everything's pale and grey
I haven't flown for so long.
Like an astronaut.

I see the world from above.
The rest is fading into the blue.
Here, I've lost time and space.
Like an astronaut ...

In the darkness of the night, everything's so peaceful here.
But on the ground is really happening.
We all contribute it but we're breaking under the burden.
We're hoping of god but we missed the miracle.
We're building higher and higher till to the infinity.
Almost 8 Billion humans but what's missing is humanity.
From above nothing does matter.
Here you don't see any limits nor the color of the skin.
All the noise for nothing muted, I listen to it no more.
Slowly I've got the feeling I belong to here.
There's no backwards, no forwards just down and up.
One out of hundred millions, just a small dot above the ground.

I lift up. Nothing can keep me on the ground.
Everything's pale and grey
I haven't flown for so long.
Like an astronaut.

I see the world from above.
The rest is fading into the blue.
Here, I've lost time and space.
Like an astronaut ...

And to see this beauty I remember everything:
Aren't we all alive to love and to be?
I'd like to stay here forever but I'm just a blink
who isn't meant to be ... after 5 billion of years ...

Lyrics by Sido feat. Andreas Bourani - Astronaut

Translation by Azurelly (I translated it freely as I'm not good at making translations in rhymes ...)

Looks like a movie poster

Normally I'm not that a fan of Rap-Music. But as I was listening this track on the radio and analyzed the lyrics. I realized that everything is so right.
The sociolcritical paragraphs tell what the today's society is already.
But it also tells that you sometimes just take the time off, to be free from problems, to see the world in a neutral way, to be free like an astronaut in the space ...

I wanted to make a super complicated background on the picture but I tried it out to make it simple to focus on the acutal details.
Also I wanted to save the XCF-file with all the layers for further edits but I overwrote it and got lost forever .... sh** happens

Enjoy!
