Tuhat Jääpiikkii
JUJU Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Luulin ampuneeni muita, ammuin itseeni polveen.
Uin syvemmälle kuoppaa, ei ketään kehen luottaa,
ei mieheen tai naiseen.
Sitten pimeys se valtasi kaiken
ja sielt ei ollu pois pääsyy.
Mut mikä oli tää syy?
Jokin suurempi voima sinne johdattava.
Kädes hirttoköysi, toisessa ässä.
Venaaminen päättymässä.
Mietin siinä hetkes, et tää on tässä, tää on tässä.
Jokin odottamaton, mieli niin malttamaton.
Sit joku veti alta maton.
En uskonu ikinä,
et ison mustan mörön takaa löytyki minä.
Totuus, kun se tulee ilmi,
mä lupaan, sulta katkee filmi.
Olo uninen, valoon astuminen,
jääkylmään veteen kastuminen.
Iskee niinku tuhat jääpiikkii sun selkään.
Älä pelkää.
Ota se vastaan, silmät auki.
Kokonaisvaltaisesti nauti.
Se on yhtä säväyttävä ku sienitrippi.
Yhtä päräyttävä ku eka bongihitti.
Ei ollu pukumies oikees vaan hippi.
Ei pukumies vaan hippi.
Kerran kävin kattoon silmiin pimeyttä.
Sama mitä teen, niin se pysyy läsnä.
Ypöyksin maailmas synkäs, pimeessä.
Siks onki pieni ihme, et oon tänään tässä.
Ei ketään kelle nauraa, ei ketään kelle huutaa.
En uskaltanu nukkuu, joutu painajaisii tuijottaa.
Monelt meni luottoystävät, ku selkään puukottaa.
Sen jälkeen sama paska läpi uuestaan.
Sitten se iski, pakko alkaa vähän toimia.
Et voi vail pohjakosketusta ruisia.
Nykyään se on mä, joka laivaa ohjaa.
Mää, joka päätän mihin mun päivät johtaa.
Valmiina kohtaan, päähän tippuu vaan sontaa.
Mut meno se, et oon valmiin sen voittaan.
Jos en kulkis täl valaistul polul selkä suorana,
ihan sama, jos oisin syntyny kuolleena.
Totuus, kun se tulee ilmi,
mä lupaan, sulta katkee filmi.
Olo uninen, valoon astuminen,
jääkylmään veteen kastuminen.
Iskee niinku tuhat jääpiikkii sun selkään.
Älä pelkää.
Ota se vastaan, silmät auki.
Kokonaisvaltaisesti nauti.
Se on yhtä säväyttävä ku sienitrippi.
Yhtä päräyttävä ku eka bongihitti.
Ei ollu pukumies oikees vaan hippi.
Ei pukumies vaan hippi.
Iskee niinku tuhat jääpiikkii sun selkään.
Älä pelkää.
Ota se vastaan, silmät auki.
Kokonaisvaltaisesti nauti.
Se on yhtä säväyttävä ku sienitrippi.
Yhtä päräyttävä ku eka bongihitti.
Ei ollu pukumies oikees vaan hippi.
Ei pukumies vaan hippi.
The lyrics of Juju's song Tuhat Jääpiikkii talk about a person who blames others for their problems and faults, but eventually realizes that the root cause of their troubles lies within themselves. The singer of the song feels isolated and betrayed by everyone, and sinks into a pit of darkness where they cannot trust anyone, not even themselves. They contemplate suicide, but just as they are about to give up, they experience an unexpected turn of events that shows them the truth about themselves. They come to terms with their flaws and understand that the only way to move forward is to face the truth head-on, no matter how painful it might be. The ending of the song encourages listeners to embrace the harsh realities of life and enjoy the experience as a whole, just like a psychedelic trip.
Line by Line Meaning
Syytin kaikkii muita osoittaen sormee.
I blamed everyone else, pointing my finger at them.
Luulin ampuneeni muita, ammuin itseeni polveen.
I thought I was shooting others, but I shot myself in the knee.
Uin syvemmälle kuoppaa, ei ketään kehen luottaa, ei mieheen tai naiseen.
I swam deeper into a pit, with no one to trust, no man or woman.
Sitten pimeys se valtasi kaiken ja sielt ei ollu pois pääsyy. Mut mikä oli tää syy?
Then darkness took over everything and there seemed to be no way out. But what was the reason?
Jokin suurempi voima sinne johdattava. Se jokin, se jokin oli kohdattava.
Some greater force led me there. That something, that something had to be faced.
Kädes hirttoköysi, toisessa ässä. Venaaminen päättymässä.
A noose in one hand, an ace in the other. Waiting was coming to an end.
Mietin siinä hetkes, et tää on tässä, tää on tässä. Jokin odottamaton, mieli niin malttamaton. Sit joku veti alta maton.
I thought in that moment that this was it, this was it. Something unexpected, mind so impatient. Then someone pulled the rug from under me.
En uskonu ikinä, et ison mustan mörön takaa löytyki minä.
I never believed that behind the big black monster was me.
Totuus, kun se tulee ilmi, mä lupaan, sulta katkee filmi.
The truth, when it comes out, I promise, your film will break.
Olo uninen, valoon astuminen, jääkylmään veteen kastuminen.
Feeling drowsy, stepping into the light, getting soaked in icy water.
Iskee niinku tuhat jääpiikkii sun selkään. Älä pelkää.
It hits you like a thousand ice picks in your back. Don't be afraid.
Ota se vastaan, silmät auki. Kokonaisvaltaisesti nauti.
Accept it, eyes open. Enjoy it holistically.
Se on yhtä säväyttävä ku sienitrippi. Yhtä päräyttävä ku eka bongihitti. Ei ollu pukumies oikees vaan hippi. Ei pukumies vaan hippi.
It's as exciting as a mushroom trip. As explosive as the first bong hit. It wasn't a businessman, but a hippie. Not a businessman, but a hippie.
Kerran kävin kattoon silmiin pimeyttä. Sama mitä teen, niin se pysyy läsnä.
Once I looked darkness in the eye. No matter what I do, it stays present.
Ypöyksin maailmas synkäs, pimeessä. Siks onki pieni ihme, et oon tänään tässä.
Alone in the dark, in the world of gloom. That's why it's a small miracle that I'm here today.
Ei ketään kelle nauraa, ei ketään kelle huutaa. En uskaltanu nukkuu, joutu painajaisii tuijottaa.
No one to laugh with, no one to shout to. I dare not sleep, had to stare at nightmares.
Monelt meni luottoystävät, ku selkään puukottaa. Sen jälkeen sama paska läpi uuestaan.
Many lost their trusted friends when they were stabbed in the back. After that, the same shit all over again.
Sitten se iski, pakko alkaa vähän toimia. Et voi vail pohjakosketusta ruisia.
Then it hit, had to start acting a bit. You can't just stay at rock bottom.
Nykyään se on mä, joka laivaa ohjaa. Mää, joka päätän mihin mun päivät johtaa.
Nowadays, it's me who steers the ship. Me who decides where my days lead.
Valmiina kohtaan, päähän tippuu vaan sontaa. Mut meno se, et oon valmiin sen voittaan.
Ready to face it, shit just keeps on coming. But the deal is, I'm ready to win it.
Jos en kulkis täl valaistul polul selkä suorana, ihan sama, jos oisin syntyny kuolleena.
If I did not walk this enlightened path with a straight back, it would be the same as if I had been born dead.
Iskee niinku tuhat jääpiikkii sun selkään. Älä pelkää.
It hits you like a thousand ice picks in your back. Don't be afraid.
Ota se vastaan, silmät auki. Kokonaisvaltaisesti nauti.
Accept it, eyes open. Enjoy it holistically.
Se on yhtä säväyttävä ku sienitrippi. Yhtä päräyttävä ku eka bongihitti. Ei ollu pukumies oikees vaan hippi. Ei pukumies vaan hippi.
It's as exciting as a mushroom trip. As explosive as the first bong hit. It wasn't a businessman, but a hippie. Not a businessman, but a hippie.
