Qui non è il Mississipi
e nemmeno Atlanta,
ma non so che cosa c'è nella mia pelle bianca
e a 14 anni mi ha fatto sentire come
nato a Hollis, Queens, ma sotto falso nome
ho il passaporto italiano e un cuore mediterraneo
working class hero, con un amore spontaneo
per la botte piena e per la moglie ubriaca
la base aerospaziale nel centro di Aracataca
Gabo Marquez, Valentino Rossi ed Happy Days
Diego Velazquez, Saturday Night Fever e Walk This Way
e quando senti il richiamo della foresta
è la mia musica, è la tua festa
Come posso io
non celebrarti vita?
oh, vita
oh, vita
skip skip dive
so-socializza
ritmo mozzarella o pomodoro ecco una pizza
supercalifragilistichespiralidoso
uomo paleolitico di impatto mostruoso
non sono laureato ma posso insegnare ad Harvard
improvviso sul tempo meglio che al Village Vanguard
ormai sono uno standard
un grande classico
quick stop, rock & roll,
Mr Fantastico se esiste un Dio, forse sì, forse no, boh
ma ascolto le storie disposto a crederci un po'
che siamo figli di qualcuna il resto è tutto da fare
non ho radici ma piedi per camminare
Come posso io
non celebrarti vita?
oh, vita
oh, vita
Come posso io
non celebrarti vita?
oh, vita
oh, vita
Ho il flow di un jazzista
e il mood di un barista
le ossa rotte e riparate a forza di stare in pista
con la pistola ad acqua rapino la banca
la mossa del cavallo a elle che la via che spalanca
verso lo scacco al Re
verso la rivoluzione
un cantautore con la lingua come una percussione
che batte dove duole il dente, dove passa la gente
Alcatraz, Razzmatazz
precipitevolissimevolmente
coraggio la fantasia in viaggio
e tocco il centro infranto del cuore selvaggio
la foce dell'Orinoco, la poesia, il gioco,
sento un calore baby, è il Sacro Fuoco
Come posso io
non celebrarti vita?
oh,vita
oh, vita
Come posso io
non celebrarti vita?
oh, vita
oh, vita
Boom boom boom boom
ritmo della vita
la barzelletta di una natura addomesticata
ah beh sì beh vacci a credere te
è tutto sempre relativo come piace a me
non sono qui per il gusto, per la ricompensa
ma per tuffarmi da uno scoglio dentro all'esistenza
sono un migrante,
sono un cantante
un panettiere a Damasco
una stella distante
un pianoforte scordato dentro una sagrestia
l'avanguardia di guardia davanti alla retrovia
nel tempo della paura aspetto la fioritura
e se è una femmina si chiamerà
Futura

Come posso io
non celebrarti vita?
oh, vita
oh, vita
Come posso io
non celebrarti vita?
oh, vita
oh, vita
oh, vita
Jovanotti, real name Lorenzo Cherubini (Rome, September 27, 1966), is an Italian singer-songwriter considered one of the most influential figures in contemporary Italian music. His career began in the 1980s, launched by Claudio Cecchetto, and was characterized by a blend of rap and world music, always interpreted in an hip hop and funky style. Over the years, Jovanotti has progressively evolved his musical style, moving closer to the Italian songwriting tradition with lyrics that address philosophical, religious, and political themes. Alongside his musical career, Jovanotti has distinguished himself for his strong social and political commitment. A convinced pacifist, he has collaborated with organizations such as Emergency, Amnesty International, the Anti-Vivisection League (LAV), Nigrizia, and Data. He participated in demonstrations against public debt in the 1990s and in the movements No Excuses and Make Poverty History, taking part in Live8. Among his most representative songs are "My Girl", "Without Fear", "The Postman", "Boy of the Sea" and "The Essential".

Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
