	~~[TBA]~~		"Na srcu mnogo rana ima. U njima vlada večna zima. Na bolnoj duši ožiljci stoje. to su tragovi prošlosti moje" - is the intro phrase.

			(There are many wounds on my heart. They are lead by eternal winter. Scars remain on my aching soul. They are traces of my past.)

			The video starts showing outside of a prison, and Baja behind bars. It then switches to him breaking rocks with a hammer. Next scene shows Baja singing from behind bars and it briefly switches to prison's interior, specifically, a cell and process of giving food, before going back to Baja singing the chorus. It then goes to show prisoners splitting a loaf of bread and people looking out from a window. A woman then comes to Baja and they kiss through the bars and they hold hands. She lights him a cigarette, touches his face, and leaves. He sings alone before the video ends, when they both leave the prison with Baja wearing a suit.

			In my soul, I'm a hero
			I wa, the others are guilty
			Again, a cell is waiting for me

			Days in prison go by
			I dream of a visit
			It would still be better
			If I was free

			Snows are blowing outside
			Grief is tearing my heart
			I'm getting laughed in my face
			By old graffitis on the wall

			Days in prison go by
			I dream of a visit
			It would still be better
			If I was free

			I believe there is a God
			I believe there is truth
			And I'm aware of that
			I will get out of here

			Days in prison go by
			I dream of a visit
			It would still be better
			If I was free

			My body is filled with scars
			On my chest is a gray eagle
			I stole again, I got caught again
			What can you do, you only live once

<poem>
Na grudima orao sivi
ja sam u duši delija
pao sam, drugi su krivi
opet me čeka ćelija

Zatvorski dani teku
sanjam posetu neku
ipak bi bilo najbolje
da mogu napolje

Napolju snegovi veju
tuga mi srce kida
u lice meni se smeju
stari grafiti sa zida

Zatvorski dani teku
sanjam posetu neku
ipak bi bilo najbolje
da mogu napolje

Verujem, ima Boga
verujem, ima pravde
i ja sam svestan toga
ja ću izaći odavde

Zatvorski dani teku
sanjam posetu neku
ipak bi bilo najbolje
da mogu napolje

Ožiljci svud po telu
na grudima orao sivi
opet sam krao, opet sam pao
šta ćeš, jednom se živi
