Lyrics:

unum extremum spiritum (One final breath) ab intra (from within) hic et nunc (here and now) homo sum humani a me (I am a human being) nihil alienum puto (nothing human is strange to me) in fieri et in fine (in the beginning and in the end) omne initium difficile est (every beginning is difficult) palma non sine pulvere ([there’s] no reward without effort) ab intra (from within) ad altiora tendo (I strive towards higher things) unum extremum spiritum (One final breath) ab intra (from within) hic et nunc (here and now) homo sum humani a me (I am a human being) nihil alienum puto (nothing human is strange to me) in fieri et in fine (in the beginning and in the end) omne initium difficile est (every beginning is difficult) palma non sine pulvere ([there’s] no reward without effort) ad arbitrium (at will) ultima orationes vestras (Your final prayers) Et unum extremum spiritum (And one final breath) Ab intra (from within) a caelo usque ad centrum (from the sky to the center) astra inclinant, sed non obligant (the stars incline us, they do not bind us) Dum graviora manent (while heavier things remain) Chorus: in fieri et in fine in fieri et in fine (in the beginning and in the end) omne initium difficile est (every beginning is difficult) palma non sine pulvere ([there’s] no reward without effort) graviora manent (heavier things remain) hic et nunc (here and now) hinc illae lacrimae (hence those tears) in fine (in the end)

Story:

I wanted to create a song that celebrates the beauty and resilience of the human spirit. The Latin phrases and inspiring messages in the lyrics are meant to convey a sense of urgency and the importance of living in the present moment. The phrase "unum extremum spiritum" or "One final breath" emphasizes the idea that every moment is precious and should be savored. I included the phrase "homo sum humani a me" or "I am a human being, nothing human is strange to me" to convey a sense of empathy and connection with others. We are all part of the same human experience, and it's important to recognize and celebrate our shared humanity. The phrase "palma non sine pulvere" or "no reward without effort" emphasizes the importance of hard work and perseverance in achieving our goals. I wanted to convey the idea that success doesn't come easy, but it's worth the effort. The line "astra inclinant, sed non obligant" or "the stars incline us, they do not bind us" suggests that while we may be influenced by external factors, we are ultimately free to make our own choices and determine our own destiny. As humans, we have the power to shape our own lives and create our own futures. The final line "graviora manent" or "heavier things remain" suggests that while life may be difficult at times, we can find strength and hope in the face of adversity. Even when things seem hopeless, we can persevere and overcome the challenges that life throws our way. Overall, I hope that this song inspires listeners to celebrate their own strength and resilience, and to embrace the beauty and complexity of the human experience.
