CAFFÈ AMARO

The rhythm, smooth as Carrara marble, glides over the words as if someone is dusting off someone else's window of success. Everything sparkles, the gold chains, coffee in a paper cup, fresh sneakers, but life still tastes the same, bitter. Here, they play tough, measure themselves by street smarts and the number of zeros in their bank accounts, but between the lines, you can hear something else: weariness with the superficial, with the constant need to "prove yourself." Everything seems to have grown into luxury and irony: expensive brands next to dirty hands, the whiteness of cocaine against a black soul. A mixture of confidence and boredom, where even idleness sounds forceful, as if rest is also part of the struggle. The music crackles with banknotes, but beneath it, you can hear it's not about money. It's about survival, stylised for a glossy magazine.
