Profithysteri
Skitsystem Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
För mig finns inget hopp
Ingen framtid
Jag är för evigt fri
Er profithysteri får mig att spy
Väcker oro i mig - Oro, hat och avsky
Förnedrad och hatad, alienerad
Men aldrig styrd
The lyrics of Skitsystem's song Profithysteri reflect a strong stance against the blind pursuit of profit, and the devastating effect it has on people's lives. The first two lines of the song, "Era pengar styr era liv, för mig finns inget hopp" translate to "Your money controls your life, for me there is no hope". This suggests that the singer feels trapped in a system where the pursuit of profit has taken over everything, and where there seems to be no way out. The following lines, "Ingen framtid, Jag är för evigt fri" translate to "No future, I am forever free" - this line appears to be ironic, as the singer feels trapped and hopeless in the system, yet ironically feels 'free' by being outside of it.
The chorus of the song, "Er profithysteri får mig att spy, Väcker oro i mig - Oro, hat och avsky" translates to "Your profit hysteria makes me want to vomit, Raises anxiety in me - Anxiety, hatred and disgust". This serves to underline the disgust and anger the singer feels at the way profit has taken over people's lives. The rest of the song touches on themes of crushed dreams, humiliation, and alienation as a result of the relentless pursuit of profit.
Overall, the lyrics of Skitsystem's Profithysteri are a strong indictment of the effects of profit chasing on people's lives. They evoke a sense of hopelessness and frustration at the impossibility of escaping the system, and also a sense of anger that the relentless pursuit of profit has replaced everything else.

Finding out the solved suspense of knowing a release of Skitsystem with Tompa Lindberg. Esto es una bendición. Saludos desde Panamá! Estoy sonriendo mientras oía los primeros treinta segundos de "Profithysteri".
