Jestem
Jestem
Żyję i czuję
Widzę
Widzę
Widzę
Myślę i mówię
Jak ptak
Jak dziki ptak
Szponami w kark
Wbiję się tak
I już nic
Nie puszczę z rąk
Tu jest mój czas
Tu jest mój kąt

In the following lines, the singer compares himself to a wild bird, using its sharp talons as a metaphor for his determination to sink into his goals. The line "I już nic/Nie puszczę z rąk" suggests that the singer won't give up until he achieves his objective. The last two lines "Tu jest mój czas/Tu jest mój kąt" imply that the singer is where he belongs, and that he is fully immersed in his environment.

Tu jest mój czas
This is my time
Tu jest mój kąt
