M'agg Rutt O Cazz

13 Bastardi's song 'M'agg Rutt O Cazz' is a raw and unfiltered expression of frustration and disillusionment. The title itself, which translates to 'I'm Fed Up,' sets the tone for the entire track. The lyrics are a candid portrayal of the artists' weariness with various aspects of life, from societal expectations to personal struggles. The repetitive use of the phrase 'M'agg rutt o cazz' emphasizes the depth of their exasperation, making it clear that this is not a fleeting feeling but a deeply ingrained sentiment.

The first verse, delivered by Castì, delves into the monotony and futility of traditional education and societal norms. He reflects on how he learned the phrase 'M'agg rutt o cazz' even before attending school, highlighting a lifelong sense of discontent. The verse critiques the rigid structures of society, where listening to history and geography lessons feels pointless, and the constant noise from others becomes overwhelming. This verse paints a picture of a person who feels trapped and disillusioned by the expectations placed upon them.

Callister's verse continues this theme of frustration but shifts the focus to more personal and immediate grievances. He talks about the harsh realities of life, such as witnessing crime and drug dealing from a young age, and the pressures of conforming to societal standards. The imagery of 'bambini vendere la bamba' (children selling drugs) and 'puttane che sborro in gola' (prostitutes swallowing) is stark and jarring, underscoring the harshness of the environment they navigate. The verse also touches on the superficiality of commercial music and the relentless pressure to work just to survive, adding layers to the overarching theme of disillusionment.

The chorus, repeated multiple times throughout the song, serves as a powerful mantra of frustration. It encapsulates the essence of the song, expressing a deep-seated weariness with life and a desire for change. The final verse brings together the voices of Castì and Callister, reinforcing the collective nature of their discontent. They express frustration with everything from smoking too many cigarettes to dealing with ex-lovers and the relentless passage of time. The song ends on a note of unresolved tension, mirroring the ongoing struggle they face in their daily lives.
