Translation of the song lyrics Iz Dana U Dan - Elemental

Iz Dana U Dan (original)

Kol’ko nisko idemo, moze li uopce nize
Mozda nam se dig’o zanos, al' standard nam se ne dize
Dani ponosa i slave i minusa na tekucem
Mi ne zivimo, mi prezivljavamo
Sta ostavljamo nasem buducem narastaju
Dugove, racune, rate kredita nas guse
A nemamo ni kune
Kombiniramo kako odgodit' placanje, bar za desetak dana
Jebo zivot kad na karticu se kupuje hrana
Di smo sad, stara stednja se otopila
Osla na ono bitno, pojela se i popila
Bez svega smo ostali, prenaglo nas je pogodilo
Ko uopce zna sto se to prek' noci dogodilo
Koga da pitam, brate
Ko ce mi dat' odgovore
Reci bilo sta osim
Da je moglo biti gore
Sve te tisuce, hiljadarke, konjanici i rudari
Stavljali davno na stranu, za neki san da se ostvari
Nestali u brojkama, brojke ko snijeg okopnile
Dok mi smo prezivljavali, zivotne stvari poskupile
I di smo sad
Napokon mirni, napokon slobodni, napokon u svojoj drzavi
Al' sad smo siromasni
Dali smo svoje snove za ovu zemlju i nije nam zao
Al' usput se nasao domoljub veci od nas
Pa pokrao sav visak
Radili, al' nisu nas cijenili
Mjesecima cekali da plate trud sto smo ulozili
Di smo sad, opet sve ispocetka
Za kol’ko nisko idemo, od ponedeljka do petka
Kol’ko danas vrijedi nas rad
Imali smo, sad nemamo, di smo sad?
Samo zivimo iz dana u dan
I svaki san davno nestao je izbrisan
Koga da pitam, brate
Ko ce mi dat' odgovore
Reci bilo sta osim da je moglo biti gore
I di smo sad?
Jos cekamo bolje sutra
Mozda naivno se nadamo istim stvarima
Dok iznutra cijeli sistem zakazuje
Nema pravde da nas stiti
Nema postene vlasti, sve sami konvertiti
Obecanja su jeftina a zivot je tako skup
Pa su uzor kriminalci, sta ces, nije narod glup
Hoce standard, hoce lovu, hoce zivit', hoce sve
A to cekaju i cekaju, i cekaju i popizde
Jer nema smisla, rezije su visoke
Minus je preduboko
Sve to traje predugo, narod puk’o
Jedni kukaju sto jucer bilo bolje neg' danas
Drugi divljaju, galame dok ih puca nacionalni zanos
I pitam te, pitam te di smo sad
Dalje radimo na crno ispod cijene, al' do kad
Ko ce vratit' dostojanstvo, ko ce platit' punu cijenu
Dat' nam tol’ko kol’ko vrijedimo
Da stvari jednom krenu
Vise gubimo strpljenje, samo brojimo probleme
Sve sto imali smo nemamo, i tesko nam je breme
Pa na kraju svatko zapita se
Kolko nisko spao sam
Pa kako onda ostat' ponosan
Samo zivimo iz dana u dan
I svaki san davno nestao je izbrisan
Koga da pitam, brate
Ko ce mi dat' odgovore
Reci bilo sta osim da je moglo biti gore
I reci mi da smo mogli promijeniti svijet
(reci mi, molim te)
I da ce djeca sto dolaze imat' nasljedje za ponijet'
I reci mi da nismo sve dobro unistili
I da cu moci
Mirno spavati.
od savjesti
Reci mi da mozemo izgraditi, da nije prekasno
I ako zakazem daj mi snage, stvorit' nesto prekrasno
I vec sutra volio bih otvorit' oci, pa da budem zahvalan
Al' ne mogu pa stisnem zube, i hodam iz dana u dan

(translation)

The lower we go, the lower we go
We may be ecstatic, but our standard is not rising
Days of pride and glory and minuses on the current
We do not live, we survive
What we leave to our future growth
Debts, bills, loan installments are suffocating us
And we don't have a penny
We combine how to postpone payment, at least for ten days
Fuck life when you buy food on the card
Where we are now, the old savings have melted away
She relied on the essentials, ate and drank
We were left without everything, it hit us too fast
Who knows what happened overnight
When to ask, brother
Who will give me the answers
Say anything but
That it could have been worse
All those thousands, thousands, horsemen and miners
Put aside long ago, for some dream to come true
Disappeared in numbers, the numbers dripped like snow
While we were surviving, things became more expensive
And where we are now
Finally peaceful, finally free, finally in his state
But now we are poor
We have given our dreams for this country and we are not sorry
But along the way there was a patriot bigger than us
So he stole all the pendulum
We worked, but they didn't appreciate us
We waited for months to pay for the effort we invested
Where we are now, all over again
How low are we going, Monday through Friday?
How much is our work worth today
We had, now we don't, where are we now?
We just live from day to day
And every dream long gone is erased
When to ask, brother
Who will give me the answers
Say anything except it could have been worse
And where are we now?
We are still waiting for a better tomorrow
Maybe we naively hope for the same things
While inside the whole system fails
There is no justice to protect us
There is no honest government, all converts themselves
Promises are cheap and life is so expensive
So the role models are criminals, what are you going to do, the people are not stupid
He wants a standard, he wants money, he wants to live, he wants everything
And they are waiting and waiting, and they are waiting and pissed
Because it doesn't make sense, the utilities are high
The minus is too deep
It all took too long, the people broke up
Some are whining that yesterday was better than today
Others go wild, shouting as they are shot by national enthusiasm
And I ask you, I ask you where we are now
We continue to work illegally below cost, but until then
Who will restore dignity, who will pay the full price
Give us as much as we are worth
Let things go once
We lose more patience, we just count the problems
We don't have everything we had, and it's a heavy burden for us
So in the end everyone wondered
How low I slept
So how to stay proud
We just live from day to day
And every dream long gone is erased
When to ask, brother
Who will give me the answers
Say anything except it could have been worse
And tell me we could have changed the world
(tell me please)
And that the children who are coming will have a 'legacy to take'
And tell me we didn't destroy everything well
And I can
Sleep well.
of conscience
Tell me we can build, it's not too late
And if I schedule, give me strength, create something beautiful
And tomorrow I would like to open my eyes, so to be grateful
But I can't, so I grit my teeth, and I walk day by day
