Set out on the voyage of the conquering fools
Looking for the gold and the modern day jewels
It come to pass what was stuck in my head
If I didn't quit on looking then I'm probably dead

I hit the road and I rolled up north
looking for the origin, the place of my birth
I didn't notice when I ran a red sign
Hoping that everything would really be fine

Uh huh huh
People come and people go
But they never know what is going on
So they gotta try to be what they want to be

What the hell is happening to me
I hit the road and I rolled up north
Looking for the origin, the place of my birth
I didn't notice when I ran a red sign

Hoping that everything would really be fine
I set out about an hour ago
Looking for some gold, said hey oh
Then I went down looking for the big

The big brass show
So I went and then he started to go
Walking down the same old, same old road
Thinking to myself, this is quite a struggle

What can I gotta do tomorrow
Gonna find that gold
And conquer me some fools
Hey hey, hey oh

Conquering fools
Conquering fools
Conquer some fools
Hey we're conquering fools

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
