Django
I’m completely ready, waiting for the sign
No gunshot is strong enough -
I’m protected by what I know
It will be the first day.
I’m not weak and have no fear
I wash my hands and erase the trace
I’m protected by what I know
It will be the first day.
People want, people think they want, people want what’s expected
What do you want, what do you want, what do you want, what do you want, what do you want?
What do you really want?*
I sit still and stare into the dark
There’s no one anywhere, and nothing left for us
Sky, earth, cold feet
And there is (there is) the reward
I’ll cast aside desires, for desires are a lie (a better life, a lie)
And this freedom too, it’s a lie (the twentieth century, a lie)
I’ll move beyond, and a voice will break
And a better past will await us
People want, people think they want, people want what’s expected
What do you want, what do you want, what do you want, what do you want, what do you want?
What do you really want?* x4
Django is a powerful reflection on desire, identity, and the complexities of freedom. The lyrics weave through questions about what we truly seek in life—whether our desires are shaped by societal expectations or if they come from within. The song explores the tension between external pressures and the internal longing for authenticity, challenging listeners to consider what they really want beyond surface-level ideals. Through vivid imagery and repetition, Django delves into themes of self-awareness and the pursuit of something deeper, with a sense of both defiance and introspection.

Django is a catchy anthem for anyone who’s ever wondered, "What do I really want?" Konstrakta takes a playful jab at how people often chase after what society expects, rather than what they truly desire. With repeated questions like “What do you want?” the song has us all second-guessing our own desires. It's like a musical wake-up call: stop following the crowd and start figuring out what you really want. Simple, right? 🤪
