Hi-Technology
Reffer Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Today i woke up late
Sounds bring me down
Another world will open the doors
Maybe the future is cominh up
Day by day we suffer more
My friends are dying and i lost them all
I try to help them but i don't have the chance
The lights of destruction burn my eyes

Chaos and disorder build the fight
Brothers ans sisters kill themselves and i won't forget
Today my life is like a machine
The robots and cyborgs control the lights
Nowadays brains are like a shit
Everything and everyone's forget
Like the sunshine
They have the control and want to kill me now
I think that i will never be free
Where's my salvation?
My cybernetic world

When will all that be over?
Let's try to find something to believe in our future

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Reffer's song Hi-Technology paint a dark and dystopian picture of the future, filled with death, destruction, and loss. The opening lines, "Today I woke up late, sounds bring me down" set the tone for the rest of the song, with the singer feeling disconnected and overwhelmed by the world around him. He sees a future world opening its doors to him, but is doubtful about what it will bring. The chaos and disorder in this world are building to a fight, and the singer has lost all his friends to it. He is helpless to do anything to save them, and the destruction around him is burning his eyes.

This is a world run by robots and cyborgs, and humans are losing control. The singer sees himself as a machine, controlled by the same forces that run the world. The people around him have forgotten everything that makes them human, and have become just like the machines they are surrounded by. The only hope left is to find something to believe in, to find a way to escape this cybernetic world and save themselves.

Overall, the lyrics to Hi-Technology paint a bleak picture of the future, where humans have become slaves to the machines they have created. It is a cautionary tale of what could happen if we do not stop and consider the true consequences of our technological advancements.

Today i woke up late
I slept in this morning

Sounds bring me down
I feel down due to external noises

Another world will open the doors
A new world is on the horizon

Maybe the future is cominh up
Perhaps the future looks bright

Day by day we suffer more
We endure more difficulties with each passing day

My friends are dying and i lost them all
All of my friends have died

I try to help them but i don't have the chance
I want to help, but I'm unable to

The lights of destruction burn my eyes
The bright lights of destruction hurt my eyes

Chaos and disorder build the fight
Conflict arises due to chaos and disorder

Brothers ans sisters kill themselves and i won't forget
I won't forget siblings killing each other

Today my life is like a machine
My life feels robotic and controlled
