Taki sam
IRA Lyrics

In the song "Taki sam," IRA reflects on the possibility of a second chance in life. The opening lines create a sense of fear and uncertainty: "Czy tak pachnie strach / Sam go sobie wymyśliłem" ("Does fear smell like this? / I made it up myself") suggesting that the singer is plagued by anxiety and paranoia. They face themselves, "Z tym człowiekiem którym byłem" ("with the person they used to be"), and they are coldly looked upon as if the past desires to kill them. Despite this, they acknowledge that they cannot kill themselves.

The chorus, "Gdybym miał urodzić się na nowo / Gdyby drugą szansę los mi dał / Poszedłbym tą samą ślepą drogą / Będę taki sam zawsze taki sam" ("If I were to be born again / If fate gave me a second chance / I would follow the same blind path / I'll always be the same") reveals the singer's belief that they are trapped in their ways and that even given another chance, they would repeat the same mistakes.

The final lines repeat "Zawsze taki sam" ("Always the same") emphasizing the singer's belief that they are incapable of change and that they will always be plagued by the same fears and anxieties.
