Okay, okay
I'll tell you a small-town story
The less you listen, the more it starts over
I'll tell you a story tonight
The less you believe it, the more it comes true
And in my head I only wanted silence
I ran toward joy but came in third
I wanted happiness like in a dream
But it's almost a year I haven't slept a second
And I think only about the crash
Friends pretend nothing happened
And more than one witness, yet
I'm dead, nobody shouts it
Enough
Look among things to find their casual beauty
Just
By catching its instinct you finally give in to certainty
Because
Answers are hidden, abandoned in a memory and its reflection
Maybe
You look for an angel but everyone is the angel of others and of themselves
I live like I've been stoned
But one stone a day
I wait for the lethal one
Yet I don't flinch
I read letters, conjugated in the present
Verb form: 'I can't, I'm staying absent'
Always free
Satisfied with nothing
Still a castaway
Obviously the time will come
Enough
Look among things to find their casual beauty
Just
By catching its instinct you finally give in to certainty
Because
Answers are hidden, abandoned in a memory and its reflection
Maybe
You look for an angel but everyone is the angel of others and of themselves
I'm my own angel, that's why I don't believe in me
Free from excess but slave to rhymes and lexicon
I pray, staring at my reflection in puddles
While a Lambo splashes mud on my jeans and parka
I don't have more problems than others
Just more time to think about them, like the well-off
You say, 'Online everything's top, so it's good to be there'
Life also lays down the stops
Life is still stuck at telegrams
I don't flaunt my pain like a banner
Even though I'd be doing myself a favor since it boosts the audience
'Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow', same plot, Sophia Loren
I gotta wake myself up, time blows the hours away
I set off from scratch, heart of gold, ex-voto
I fill the void, I explode
I know one day I'll just be a former celeb
I head out, fly under the strobes
Then I seize you in the dream, hands on your neck and shake
Till you scream under the sheet, 'Enough now'
Look among things to find their casual beauty
Just
By catching its instinct you finally give in to certainty
Because
Answers are hidden, abandoned in a memory and its reflection
Maybe
You look for an angel but everyone is the angel of others and of themselves

SONG MEANING

In L’Angelo Degli Altri E Di Se Stesso, Tiziano Ferro teams up with the sharp-tongued rapper Caparezza to spin a restless, cinematic tale of small-town life, sleepless nights and the never-ending hunt for happiness. The narrator has survived a crash — literal or emotional — and now moves through memories like flashing streetlights, feeling “dead” while everyone else pretends nothing happened. Over a driving beat he admits he once sprinted toward joy and still finished “third,” while Caparezza fires off witty, self-deprecating lines about mirrors, social media and the fleeting nature of fame. The contrast between Ferro’s soulful melody and Caparezza’s rapid-fire verses mirrors the push-and-pull inside the mind: hope versus doubt, calm versus chaos.

Yet the chorus shines a hopeful torch: real answers hide in everyday details, in half-forgotten memories and their reflections. If you pause to “observe between things,” beauty appears; if you trust instinct, certainty follows. The song’s key idea is disarmingly simple and profoundly uplifting — each of us can be an angel to others, and to ourselves. By urging listeners to reclaim that inner guardian, Ferro and Caparezza turn a story of provincial angst into a universal reminder to look after one another, notice the small sparks of wonder around us and, above all, believe that salvation often starts from within.
