777
Hayko Cepkin Lyrics

The lyrics of Hayko Cepkin's song "777" speak to the struggles and challenges of life, and the ways in which we often seek escape and comfort in harmful things. The lines "Bir düşündük bin ah isittik / Her geçen gun incitildik" ("We thought and heard a thousand sighs / We were hurt every passing day") convey a sense of weariness and defeat, as though the singer has been battered by the difficulties of their existence. In response, they have turned to various coping mechanisms, such as burning incense and indulging in alcohol and drugs ("Tütsü yaktık temizlendik / Bir kadeh içtik keyiflendik / İlaçlarıyla uyutulduk").

Despite these attempts to find solace and escape, however, the singer remains isolated and trapped ("Yalnız kaldım bu şehirde / Tutsak kaldık içimizde / O yatakta yokuz yerimizde"). They seem to be on the edge of a precipice ("Ucurumun kenarında / Bizi iten rüzgarında"), with danger lurking at every turn. Nevertheless, they hold out hope for some kind of salvation or support ("Düşmememek için tutun bana"), even as they acknowledge the grim reality of their situation.
