Shamania
Ekat Bork Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When I was stupid
Could I pray?
Who should I pray to?
I asked my tablet
My on-line shaman
Set me free
Tick- tock tick tock
Slave of technology
Tick- tock- tick- tock
Tied to chronology
Tick- tock- tick- tock
Down on your knees and. pray
Tick- tock tick tock
Instagram Whatsapp
Tick- tock- tick- tock
Netflix claptrap
Tick- tock- tick- tock
Down on your knees and. pray
Living your popcorn life in the cinema Technicolor love at
The back of the cinema Digital insanity is caught in the camera
Tick-tock tick-tock
Down on your knees boy
Am I at war?
Is this a war?
I'm not so easy
Let's take Brindisi
Mama told me that I don't have to rush
It is enough that l am living too much
I'm electricity
Connect internally
I live in binary
Binary
Algorithm maths
Tick- tock tick tock
Live by the battery
Tick- tock- tick- tock
FitBit flattery
Tick- tock- tick- tock
Tick- tock tick tock
Bow to the X-Box
Tick-tock- tick- tock
Fuck like (sleep with) a sex bot
Tick- tock- tick- tock
Down on your knees boy
You've been
Living your wi-fi life on diazepam
Technicolor dreams getting lost in your glam spam
Physical reality is live on Amazon
Primetime box sets streamed to your brain
Get the Satan far behind me
I can live without temptation
Leave it to me
Whatever, leave it to me
Maybe I will google a pair of new shoes.
Hey!

A family of idiots is living on
Amazon Prime Tick-tock cranked up on Pokemon
The lyrics of Ekat Bork's "Shamania" talk about the dependence of modern human beings on technology and the internet. The song starts with the singer questioning whether they could have prayed when they were blinded and foolish. They turn to their tablet and the online world for answers, seeking epiphany and freedom. The lyrics then refer to the addictive nature of social media platforms like Instagram and WhatsApp, and how people are tied to chronology while being slaves to technology. The singer urges listeners to connect internally and live in binary, calling out the irony of being alive and yet relying on likes and comments for validation.
The lyrics also touch on themes of escapism, with the singer observing how people lose themselves in their digital lives, becoming slaves to Fitbit and X-boxes. They are compared to zombies, lost in Technicolor dreams, with physical reality reduced to Amazon products and box sets. The lyrics suggest that people are living in a state of digital insanity, with their every move caught on camera and shared on social media.
Overall, "Shamania" is a song about the dangers of being too reliant on the internet and technology. It warns that while technology can be a powerful tool, it should not replace real-life experiences and connections.
