The repetition emphasizes the artist's longing for a new beginning, free from the struggles and disappointments of his current circumstances.

The song continues with themes of death and rebirth, indicating the artist's desire to escape his current existence and start fresh.

The scent of a new day excites him, contrasting with the bleakness and emptiness represented by "это черное Ничего" (eto chernoye Nicheto) or "this black Nothingness." Husky expresses his dissatisfaction with the world around him, referencing the graves surrounding people and the corrupt nature of work. He dives into a box, hiding from everything that has been looking for him, while his mother carries half an atlas in the box. These lines suggest that he feels trapped and powerless, seeking escape from the difficulties of life. The artist also mentions his friend who came up with rap music while considering the ambivalent atmosphere on the last day of Indian Summer with a bottle of "Виноградного дня" (Vinogradnogo dnya) or "Grape Day" and smoking from the window, resembling a cabriolet car. He mentions the absence of African Americans except for a couple of homeless people smoking ammonia in the stairwell. This part reflects the artist's observations of his surroundings and the contrast between different social realities. The song ends with the repetition of "Заново" and the singer exclaiming "Эва-эва-эва!" (Eva-eva-eva!), urging the listener to be like them and embrace their way of life. It is a call to not wait for better weather or rely on others, but instead, seize the moment and live collectively. Overall, "Заново" by Husky touches upon themes of disillusionment, longing for a fresh start, and expressing frustration with societal norms. The lyrics convey a sense of rebellion and desire for personal freedom, seeking to break away from the limitations of one's current circumstances.
