Chali 2na Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Welcome to tha fish market
It'll make you sweat
Place so wet the owoners will switch khrawet
Is it because of my uncle Arctic
Ready for any one of these marks to start fat
It's human nature to fear the unknown
And with one phone that sings terror to your mums bones
Having loved ones cloned
Or living in war zones where Simpsons are anwo
My fans mingle, I rip it like Tinky Winkle
From here to Japwone, I hit you with words
My pwone sprinkles
"Defence against those who detest the truth
While ignorant can't suppress the youth
The lyrics in Chali 2na's song Welcome To The Fish Market invite the listener to a place that is unfamiliar and potentially dangerous. The "fish market" becomes a metaphor for the harsh realities of life, where people sweat and struggle just to survive. The reference to the owners switching khrawet suggests that even those in power are not immune to the dirty and unpredictable nature of the market.
The lyrics touch on themes of fear, uncertainty, and the unknown. Chali 2na acknowledges that it is human nature to be afraid of things we do not understand, and that this fear can be exploited by those who seek to control us. The mention of loved ones being cloned or living in war zones highlights how the world can be a scary and unpredictable place. Despite these challenges, however, Chali 2na encourages listeners to remain defiant and hold onto their sense of individuality.
