Gravity
Jovanotti Lyrics

La forza di gravità
Jovanotti is referring to the force of gravity that is always present and keeps him grounded, physically.

MI tiene in piedi
This Italian phrase translates to 'keeps me on my feet' in English, meaning that gravity is a force that keeps him upright and walking.

Se io mi fermo cado
If he stops moving forward or loses momentum, gravity will cause him to fall down. This is a metaphor for life, where stopping or giving up can lead to failure.

Revolution
The Revolution represents a change, an evolution in thinking or ideas, and it is present in everything Jovanotti does.

Quello che credi
Whatever you believe in, is possible if you maintain balance and work hard to achieve it.

In equilibrio vado
If he maintains balance he can move forward, achieve his goals or objectives, and experience a sense of fulfillment.

Vivo sulla terra dalla nascita sono condizionato
Jovanotti reflects on being conditioned as a human who lives on earth from the moment of birth. He refers to a series of physical and environmental variables that condition him to earth, such as temperature, oxygen levels, and dimensions.

Da una forza che si chiama gravità
Gravity is a natural force present on earth and conditions everything and everyone living here.

È una legge naturale che MI obbliga continuamente
Gravity is an essential law or principle that obliges him, as a human being, to confront a form of energy or force. Gravity compels him to defy its pull and stay standing on his feet.

A confrontarmi con un tipo di energia
He must confront gravity, and work against it to stay upright, metaphorically speaking, he must confront his problems to achieve success.

Tutto tende verso un centro verso una condizione
Gravity pulls everything towards the center or towards stability and equilibrium to keep things alive.

Stabile di quiete per mantenersi vivi
To stay alive, everything must maintain a stable, quiet equilibrium and survive despite the forces pulling it in different directions.

Serve di riuscire a contrastarla con le forze
To defies gravity, he must put effort and energy against it, just as you must work hard to achieve in life.

Che trasformano tra moto ed entropia
By exerting forces on an object (Jovanotti), you transform it into a state of motion or rest, which is called entropy. He must act upon the forces that pull him down to move forward and succeed if he stops, he will fall into entropy, his life stagnated.

Anche fare un passo oppure alzarsi la mattina
Every small action, like getting up in the morning, is a challenge presented by gravity as it pulls you down.

È una resistenza al peso che mi schiaccia
Gravity causes resistance and pressure that pulls him down whenever he wants to advance, requiring him to make an effort to overcome it. This is a metaphor for how life can weigh us down and require effort to keep moving forward.

Sviluppare un moto contrastante per riuscire
To succeed, he must develop a motion that contrasts or works against gravity’s pull.

A sollevarmi per andare a lavorare
To go to work, he must put some effort into opposing gravity and getting out of bed.

Fare un scaturire un fuoco, rompere una pietra,
Jovanotti lists a series of actions like starting a fire, breaking a stone, and sharpening it to go hunting, done against the forces of gravity.

Affilarla e poi usarla per la caccia
Shaping the stone shows the importance of shaping his perception and creating useful tools to hunt and achieve his goals.

Trasformare condizioni avverse in possibili
Jovanotti highlights the significance of figuring out ways to flip adversity around and make it work in your favor and achieve your goals.

Vantaggi è qualcosa che mi è dato DI tentare
By taking advantage of obstacles and turning them into something positive, it becomes a chance to succeed.

Nel pianeta terra non c'è niente di scontato
Nothing is guaranteed or given on earth, and humans must' work hard for everything they have.

Non l'amore, non la rabbia, non la stessa vita
Jovanotti mentions that no emotion or feeling is granted to us. We love, experience anger, learn through life, and work toward goals.

Sono dipendente da una serie DI precarie condizioni
He is dependent on a series of frail and unstable conditions that can change quickly and affect his growth, achievements or well-being.

Di temperatura, ossigeno e dimensione
Jovanotti mentions that his well-being depends on numerous factors like temperature, oxygen levels, and dimensions.

Tengo ben presente che questo equilibrio di coordinate
Jovanotti emphasizes the importance of balance and equilibrium which is fragile and can change rapidly for humans to survive.

È il campo della mia partita,
The balance between different factors is the playing field of his life and determines his capacity to succeed.

So che l'Himalaya non è cosa più importante di un sorriso
Jovanotti acknowledges that, in life, the most important things are often intangible or non-materialistic, like a smile.

DI un kalashnikovo di una canzone
The beautiful things in life can be something as harmless as a song or a dangerous weapon like a Kalashnikov, but in the end, its importance is subjective.

Smaterializzare informazioni è l'approdo naturale
The natural evolution of humanity is to make information abstract and easier to access, from smoke signals to Rosetta stones to modern-day telemedicine.

Del mammifero chiamato essere umano
Jovanotti refers to humans as a kind of mammal that has developed the ability to make abstract technology over time.

Dai segnali con il fumo alla Stele di Rosetta fino
From smoking signals to Rosetta stone and everything in between, the human invention's ultimate purpose is to make our lives easier and move through time and space more efficiently.

Alle operazione telematiche di chirurgia
The advancement of technology has made it possible to perform operations remotely over the internet that once required physical presence in the past.

Dalle statue di idoli di pietra ai confini
From religious idols of the past to contemporary borders drawn on a map or digital art, the human's ability to create abstract forms is ever-evolving.

Che si sgretolano come ghiaccio nel calore di una mano
Technology and human inventions like borders, nations, governments can change and diminish over time and under different conditions.

Dalle grandi pietre alle mura di Micene
Human evolution is characterized by a series of inventions over time, from large rocks to fortified cities, and beyond.

A possibili esperienze di telepatia
As humans become more technologically advanced, we discover new potentialities, like telepathy and communication beyond language.

Prendo la tua mano per tenermi collegato
Jovanotti uses the language of technology to convey a sense of connection that holds people together, much like an electrical circuit.

A una fonte che mi nutre tanto forte come il sole
We depend on a source of energy, light, heat, and radiation that is as essential for us as the Sun is for life on earth.

Quando ci abbracciamo diamo vita ad un nuovo essere
Spontaneous acts of human connection like a hug can create a new entity or connection more significant than ourselves.

Lo sento me ne accorgo io lo so quando succede
Jovanotti believes in the power of personal experience and intuition. He can feel the creation of new life appear in everyday interactions between people.

Incrociare sguardi collegare i nostri cavi queste braccia
Jovanotti sees people as interconnected beings, and it is the act of looking into someone's eyes and connecting through actions that make life meaningful.

Questa voce che compone oggetti di parole fisica quantistica che agisce inesorabile
Jovanotti views language as a force that shapes and affects the world. He describes the physical process of forming words and the inescapable impact they have on themselves and society.

Si manifesta sempre dentro a quello che uno crede
Thoughts and beliefs are at the core of language, driving the way we create and use words to convey meaning in our lives.

Ba ba ba ballo
Repetition of 'Ba ba ba Ballo' reflects the energy and movement of the song embodying and representing movement and entropy caused by gravity.
