The song "Had 1 in 2-3" by A. G. Cook features lyrics in both English and Arabic. The song is essentially about the internal war that the artist feels within themselves. The lyrics “Mokhi fi 7arb” is Arabic for "I am at war," and this phrase is repeated throughout the song. The war that the artist is talking about is between their heart and their consciousness. They feel conflicted between the reality of their situation and the hope that they hold onto. The line "Qalbi complice" means "My heart is a conspirator," which suggests that their heart is actively working against them.
The lyrics also talk about the artist's struggle with feeling disconnected from their environment and the people around them. The line "Mnhom kan 7asebni aride" translates to "They made me feel distant," which likely refers to a feeling of loneliness or isolation. Additionally, the artist sings about his desire to return to a time before this internal conflict: "Want to go back where I was, want to go back to my home."
Overall, the lyrics of the song examine the emotions and inner turmoil that many people face when they feel caught between hope and reality, as well as the struggle of trying to remain positive in difficult circumstances.
