Jag är ingenting
KSMB Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Om jag vorde en flod skulle alla drдnkas
Och om jag voren en storm skulle jag fцrцda
Om jag vore en eld skulle allting brinna
Och om jag vore en gud skulle alla fцrsvinna

Men jag e ingenting...

Om jag vore en prдst mitt fцrakt bekдnna
Och om jag var en pistol skulle min kula mцrda
Och om jag var en soldat med makt att dцda
Dе pе allas hals jag skulle utцva denna

Men jag e ingenting...

Om jag vore dцden skulle jag besцka dig
Men om jag vore livet skulle jag цverge dig
Och alla sцta flickor, dom skulle jag samla
Och dom fula och gamla, dom fick alla andra





Men jag e ingenting...

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to KSMB's song "Jag är ingenting" (translated to "I Am Nothing" in English) are quite dark and introspective. The song speaks to the feeling of worthlessness and powerlessness that the singer is experiencing. In the first verse, the singer imagines themselves as powerful forces of nature like a flood, a storm, fire, and even a god. Each of these would cause destruction and chaos, but ultimately the singer realizes that they are "nothing" and have no power to cause such devastation.


In the second verse, the singer imagines themselves in more mundane roles like a priest, a gun, or a soldier. In each case, they would have the power to harm or even kill others, but again they end up feeling powerless and unable to act. The line about confessing their contempt as a priest is particularly interesting, as it speaks to the hypocrisy and conflict within oneself.


The final verse speaks to the singer's desire to be significant and noticed, but ultimately feeling invisible and unimportant. They would visit someone as death, but also abandon them as life. The reference to collecting all the beautiful girls and leaving the ugly and old behind further speaks to this desire for power and control, but again feeling helpless and insignificant.


Overall, the lyrics to "Jag är ingenting" are a haunting exploration of the human condition, specifically the feeling of powerlessness and insignificance.
