Matter of Time
Neural Fx feat. Marco Sfogli Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm the infinite being that flies around you,
The beginning and the end.
I have born never, never will die
I'm your punish and your grace…

You absorb and consume me
In your infinity dimensions
Without a hope to break up
My darkness and desperation
Get away, and leave me alone

I have felt how it runs over me
How my skin changes day by day
By the time my eyes see
The end comes

Beyond the logical real
There's something with me
It takes my hand, and I take control
It takes my eyes and drives my way

How fight against you?
How fight with you?

I have seen days and nights die
You are everywhere
It's looking all my fears
It's looking my mistakes

Spiral time
Constant evolution
Growing by the same cycle

You can't challenge me
You'll accept my will and command
I can't feel, and I don't think
I just fly, watch me pass by

There are no more for us
It's gone
Who wants to live forever?
Who wants to be forever?

Beyond the logical real
There's something with me
It takes my hand, and I take control




It takes my eyes and drives my way…
No!

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Matter of Time" by Neural Fx feat. Marco Sfogli present a deep philosophical reflection on the nature of existence and time. The first stanza introduces the idea of an infinite being that encompasses everything, from the beginning to the end of time, neither born nor destined to die, capable of being both a punishing force and a source of grace. The second stanza describes the human experience of being caught in the infinity of dimensions, unable to escape the darkness and desperation that come with it. The singer expresses a desire to be left alone, to break free from the cycle of growth and evolution that drives everything forward.


However, the third stanza adds a new dimension to the song, suggesting that beyond the logical reality that humans understand, there is something with them, leading them forward, taking control of their lives, and shaping their perceptions of the world. The singer is left questioning whether it is possible to fight against this force, or whether it is better to surrender and accept its will and command. The final stanza presents a more fatalistic outlook, suggesting that there is no escaping the endless spiral of time and evolution, and that the only way out is through death.


Overall, the song dives deeply into questions of mortality, purpose, and identity, offering a complex and thought-provoking perspective on the nature of existence in the world.
