Ay (part. Kassu)

In "Ay (feat. Kassu)", Shattz delves into the profound emotional turmoil and existential struggles faced by individuals in a world that seems unchanging and indifferent. The song opens with a reflection on personal identity, where the artist speaks of their color and soul being burdened with resentment, which disrupts their peace. This sets the stage for a deeper exploration of the human condition, questioning the possibility of living without suffering.

The lyrics poignantly highlight the absence of light and color in a life devoid of love, suggesting that without love, the soul withers. Shattz paints a vivid picture of pain and loss, observing from afar the agony of those who have lost something precious. The repeated cry of "Ay" serves as a haunting refrain, emphasizing the depth of this sorrow. The artist's plea to live in peace, without blood on one's hands, raises questions about the inherent violence and injustice in the world, and whether desiring peace is too much to ask.

The recurring line "The world never changed" underscores a sense of hopelessness and frustration with the static nature of societal issues. Despite the passage of time, the world remains the same, perpetuating cycles of pain and suffering. This repetition reinforces the artist's despair and the feeling of being trapped in an unchanging reality. Through this song, Shattz not only expresses personal anguish but also calls for introspection and change, urging listeners to consider the impact of their actions and the possibility of a more compassionate world.
