The song "Sogni Appesi" by Ultimo explores the themes of resilience, self-discovery, and the challenges that come with pursuing dreams. The lyrics depict the artist reflecting on past choices and the pain they caused, trying to find solace in his certainties and working hard to forget. However, he still cannot understand if he will ever be able to love the world or if he will continue to isolate himself. The artist talks about his struggles with self-expression and wanting to prove himself to others. He remembers feeling absent in the classroom, dreaming of a better life and wanting to show he was a winner. As he meets himself while running at night, he expresses hatred towards this version of himself, which causes them to take different paths. The song speaks to the artist's realization that even though he feels good now, he encounters his past self on the street and asks him to laugh together. This represents a reconciliation with his past and accepting the journey he has been on. The chorus asks what remains when living without memory and losing one's voice, searching for peace and letting life live through oneself. It reflects the artist's struggle with anxiety, which hides the smiles he has. It also touches on pondering the future, the questions, the answers, and the uncertainty of tomorrow, living with dreams hanging on, as the walls keep turning. The artist reminisces about listening to people giving lessons but not being able to learn, leading him to draw disappointments and conclusions. He acknowledges that having ambitions is easy, but bringing them to fruition is harder. He mentions being a different child, hating those who loved and waiting for winter. Being labeled as part of the losers' group, he still smiles and causes a thousand incidents for the people around him. However, he keeps pushing forward, letting the wheel spin by itself. The artist believes that only those who have always wanted something that doesn't exist can understand him. Ultimately, the song emphasizes the artist's reflection on his current situation and how it may not align with his initial expectations. Despite this, he takes pride in carrying on and believing in what he stands for. The repetition in the chorus and the mention of dreams hanging on walls signify the artist's continuous pursuit of his dreams, even if they seem elusive.
