Jungkir Balik
Morfem Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ibuku guru sekolah
Tumbuh besar di pinggiran
Petakan kavling yang tentram
Tak sampai melarat
Jauh dari konglomerat
Serba pas ala jeans sekarang
Mimpiku tinggi menjulang
Aku jungkir balik
Kepala di kaki di kepala
Gapai-gapai mimpi
Kepala di kaki di kepala
Aku jungkir balik
Kepala di kaki di kepala
Tabrak prihal tak mungkin
Abaikan mustahil
Terdidik menjadi biasa
Hidup di zona yang aman
Tetanggaku semua seragam
Pegawai negeri palingan
Anak-anak mereka
Rada ugal-ugalan
Lalu tiba-tiba menghilang
Usia injak dua puluhan
Kuangkat kaki dari rumah
Aku jungkir balik
Kepala di kaki di kepala
Gapai-gapai mimpi
Kepala di kaki di kepala
Aku jungkir balik
Kepala di kaki di kepala
Tabrak prihal tak mungkin
Abaikan mustahil
Wo ku jungkir balik
Kepala di kaki di kepala
Gapai-gapai mimpi
Kepala di kaki di kepala
Aku jungkir balik
Kepala di kaki di kepala
Tabrak prihal tak mungkin
Abaikan mustahil
Musti musti ini musti di wujudkan
Musti musti ini musti di wujudkan
Musti musti ini musti di wujudkan
Musti musti ini musti di wujudkan
Tiada hal yang tak mungkin
Abaikan mustahil
The lyrics of Morfem's song "Jungkir Balik" tells the story of a person who is the child of retirees from the bank and a school teacher, growing up in a peaceful suburban area where they live comfortably without having to worry about financial struggles. However, their dream is to aim high and leave behind the safe and peaceful life, where all their neighbours are civil servants' children who act like they own the world. Suddenly, in their twenties, this person leaves their house and takes a leap of faith to pursue their dreams, despite being aware of the challenges they will face. The person acknowledges the difficulties and says they will not let such challenges stop them from reaching their dreams.
The overall theme in the song is about taking risks and going beyond one's comfort zone to achieve dreams. The lyrics describe the singer's ambition to leave behind their mundane life and reach a higher level of success, no matter how impossible it may seem. The term "Jungkir Balik" also has a connotation of doing a somersault or a flip, which represents the challenges and unexpected scenarios that the singer goes through to achieve their dreams.
Some possible interpretations of "Jungkir Balik" could be related to taking steps beyond one's familiar surroundings, being unafraid to take chances, and rising beyond materialism and what society expects of individuals. It also symbolises the idea of fighting to achieve one's goals despite the hurdles that come along the way, and being determined to make their dreams come true.

Ayahku pensiunan bank
My father is a retired banker
Ibuku guru sekolah
My mother is a school teacher
Tumbuh besar di pinggiran
I grew up in a suburban area
Petakan kavling yang tentram
Living peacefully in our own plots of land
Tak sampai melarat
Never became poor
Jauh dari konglomerat
Far from the wealthy elite
Serba pas ala jeans sekarang
Content with simple things like jeans
Mimpiku tinggi menjulang
My dreams are lofty
Tinggalkan kavling ke awan
Leaving behind the simple suburban life and reaching for the sky
Aku jungkir balik
I'm turning everything upside down
Kepala di kaki di kepala
Mind and body in disarray
Gapai-gapai mimpi
Reaching out for my dreams
Tabrak prihal tak mungkin
Breaking through impossible obstacles
Abaikan mustahil
Ignoring what seems impossible
Terdidik menjadi biasa
Being raised to be ordinary
Hidup di zona yang aman
Living in a safe zone
Tetanggaku semua seragam
All my neighbors are in the same uniform
Pegawai negeri palingan
Most of them are government employees
Anak-anak mereka rada ugal-ugalan
Their children are a bit mischievous
Lalu tiba-tiba menghilang
Then suddenly disappear
Usia injak dua puluhan
Entering my twenties
Kuangkat kaki dari rumah
Lifting my feet from home
Wo ku jungkir balik
I'm turning everything upside down
Musti musti ini musti di wujudkan
This must be made possible
Tiada hal yang tak mungkin
Nothing is impossible
Abaikan mustahil
Ignore the impossible
