The lyrics to Bang & La Decks's song Utopia are sung in Amharic, the official language of Ethiopia, where the song's title Ityopp'ya (the Amharic name for Ethiopia) takes its name. The song describes a utopian state in which the people of Ethiopia are free from poverty and suffering. The lyrics seem to suggest that the state of utopia is not achievable in reality, and that this perfect world exists only in the imagination. The repetition of the phrase "Utopia hiote" at the end of each verse emphasizes this idea of an unattainable paradise.
The lyrics also draw attention to the struggles and hardships faced by the people of Ethiopia. The line "Imi ontish inate" translates to "our people are hungry," highlighting the issue of food insecurity in the country. The next line, "Sandenkish inoralou," means "we struggle to survive," and comments on the overall poverty levels. Despite these challenges, the singer suggests that utopia is still a possibility for Ethiopia.
Overall, the lyrics of Utopia offer a message of hope and a vision for a better future, while also acknowledging the current realities faced by the Ethiopian people.
