The song '1.000.000 Times' by Die Happy is a motivational track that talks about a person's belief in themselves and their abilities to achieve anything they set their mind to. The first verse speaks of a person standing still, looking up at the moon, and believing in themselves enough to make it through whatever challenges they might face. This is further amplified through the use of metaphors, as the moon is described as sparkling silver, representing hope and a bright future. The chorus is a repetition of the phrase "1.000.000 times forward" which means that no matter what happens, the subject will keep moving forward, even if there are dangers lurking behind them. The second verse talks about the sun and how it represents the untold secret that the singer knows, and there is so much more to learn and discover, which can be accomplished only by flying. It reflects on the idea that there is so much more to explore and discover in life, and the singer wants to make sure that they don't run out of time before they experience it all. The bridge ends with a statement of freedom, declaring that there are no limits for the singer, and they have big plans for their life.
The song's overall message is one of hope, determination, and self-belief, that anything is possible if we simply put our minds to it. The lyrics are simple yet powerful, and the use of metaphors makes them all the more captivating. It's a song that inspires the listener to pursue their dreams, to step out of their comfort zone, and to believe in themselves, even when no one else does, and never give up no matter how challenging the journey may seem.
