Superman
The Lucky Laki Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Aku bukanlah superman
Aku juga bisa nangis
Jika kekasih hatiku
Pergi meningalkan aku

Ayahku selalu berkata padaku
Laki-laki tak boleh nangis
Harus slalu kuat, Harus slalu tangguh

Harus bisa jadi tahan banting

Tapi ternyata sakitnya cinta
Buat aku menangis...

Aku bukanlah superman
Aku juga bisa nangis
Jika kekasih hatiku
Pergi meningalkan aku

Ayahku selalu memarahi aku
Jika jatuh air mataku
Kata ayah slalu
Air mata itu adalah tanda kelemahan

Tapi ternyata air mataku
Ternyata jatuh juga...

Aku bukanlah superman
Aku juga bisa nangis
Jika kekasih hatiku
Pergi meningalkan aku

Ayahku tersayang maafkanlah aku
Jika aku masih menangis
Masih belum bisa
Menjadi seperti apa yang ayah slalu mahu

Kita berjanji 'tuk tidak lagi
Menangis karena cinta...

Aku bukanlah superman
Aku juga bisa nangis
Jika kekasih hatiku
Pergi meningalkan aku

Aku bukanlah superman
Aku juga bisa nangis
Jika kekasih hatiku
Pergi meningalkan aku

Aku bukanlah superman
Aku juga bisa nangis

Jika kekasih hatiku
Pergi meningalkan aku

Overall Meaning

The Lucky Laki's song "Superman" tells the story of a man who is not invincible and can experience heartache and sadness like anyone else. Despite his father's insistence that men should not cry, the singer of the song acknowledges that love can be painful and bring tears to his eyes. He apologizes to his father for his tears and his inability to be the tough and resilient man that his father expects him to be.

The lyrics of "Superman" depict the struggle that many people, particularly men, face when it comes to expressing their emotions. Societal expectations often dictate that men must be stoic and strong, even in the face of heartbreak. However, the song suggests that acknowledging one's vulnerability and shedding tears can be a sign of strength rather than weakness. It also touches upon the universal themes of love and loss, showcasing how they can affect anyone regardless of their perceived strength.
