Yenilmişiz
Gripin Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Diyorlar ki yenilmisiz
Senin, benim gibiler
Soyleyenler yazanlar
Canimizdan bezdirenler
Kin tutmuslar, ruhsuz olmuslar
Sevmeyi sevilmeyi unutmuslar
Yenildiysek belden asagi vurmadik asla
Acitmadik

Diyorlar ki yenilmisiz
Ask nedir bilmeyenler
Diyorlar ki yenilmisiz
Nefsimizi koreltmisiz

Kir tutmuslar, kalp kirmislar
Gel bizimle yuru diyorlar

Overall Meaning

In the song "Yenilmişiz" by Gripin, the lyrics capture the sentiment of being perceived as defeated by others. The song describes how people claim that both the singer and the singer are among those who have lost in life. These people who make such claims are characterized as individuals who have become tired of life and have drained the life out of the singer and the singer. They are described as holding grudges and having lost their emotions and ability to love.

The lyrics state that even if they were defeated, they never struck below the belt, never caused pain to others. The song emphasizes that even in defeat, they chose not to inflict harm on others.

The lyrics also touch upon the idea that these people who claim defeat are the ones who do not understand the concept of love. They argue that the singer and the singer have deteriorated their own egos and that they have allowed bitterness and heartbreak to take hold of their lives. Despite this, there is an invitation to those who have experienced hardships to join them and walk together.

Overall, "Yenilmişiz" conveys a message of resilience and strength in the face of defeat. It highlights the importance of maintaining integrity and not succumbing to bitterness and harm even when faced with challenging circumstances.
