Пожар
Vas Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
Ты сам виновен и подставил себя под удар.
Я объявляю пожар -
Ты погрузил своих детей в этот сущий кошмар.
Я объявляю пожар -
И отдуваться будешь ты, а не твой аватар
Я объявляю пожар.
Я объявляю пожар.
Ты посмотри, что на камерах!
Я не шучу.
Там только ты,
Ты подложил нам свинью.
И ты стираешь все записи,
И под молчание гитар,
Ты закрываешь нам занавес,
Но слишком пахнет пожар.
Я объявляю пожар -
Нам не получится спрятаться.
Я объявляю пожар -
Здесь нет таблеток, как в матрице.
Я объявляю пожар -
Мы точно знаем, кто поджог этот старый амбар.
Я объявляю пожар.
Я объявляю пожар.
Ты посмотри, что на камерах!
Я не шучу.
Там только ты,
Ты подложил нам свинью.
И ты стираешь все записи,
И под молчание гитар,
Ты закрываешь нам занавес,
Но слишком пахнет пожар.
Ты посмотри, что на камерах!
Я не шучу.
Там только ты,
Ты подложил нам свинью.
И ты стираешь все записи,
И под молчание гитар,
Ты закрываешь нам занавес,
Но слишком пахнет пожар.
Я объявляю пожар.
Я объявляю пожар.
Я объявляю пожар.
In the song "Пожар" by Vas, the lyrics depict a sense of accusation and confrontation. The repetition of the phrase "Я объявляю пожар" (I declare a fire) sets the tone for a fiery proclamation, symbolizing a situation that is out of control and in need of urgent attention. The singer directly addresses someone, pointing out their culpability and role in creating chaos and destruction. The imagery of a fire serves as a metaphor for a crisis or conflict that cannot be ignored or suppressed.
The lyrics suggest that the person being addressed is responsible for their actions and has put themselves in harm's way. By involving their children in the situation, they have inflicted a nightmare upon them. The lines "Ты погрузил своих детей в этот сущий кошмар" (You have plunged your children into this sheer nightmare) highlight the gravity of the situation and the impact it has on innocent individuals. The repetition of declaring a fire emphasizes the urgency and seriousness of the accusations being made.
The mention of cameras and recordings implies that there is evidence of the person's wrongdoing, despite their attempts to cover it up. The line "Ты подложил нам свинью" (You have set us up) suggests a betrayal or deceitful actions that have been exposed. The reference to erasing recordings and closing the curtain on the truth symbolizes an attempt to conceal guilt and avoid accountability. However, the lingering smell of fire signifies that the truth cannot be hidden or extinguished so easily.
The repetition of the chorus reinforces the singer's determination to confront the individual and hold them accountable for their actions. The lines "Здесь нет таблеток, как в матрице" (Here there are no pills like in the matrix) suggest that there is no easy escape or solution to the situation at hand. The assertion that the singer knows who set fire to the old barn implies a sense of revelation and justice seeking. Overall, the lyrics of "Пожар" convey a message of condemnation, revelation, and the inevitability of facing consequences for one's actions.
