Little Chance of Life as a Woman
Best song of June with disclosure by Muthia Nadhira
How did I find this song
June 12, 9:00 PM. That night I was lying weak in my room because of a fever, I opened YouTube and listened to interviews and fun facts there.
I started to feel bored and wanted to switch channels, but I found the latest video from Ferry Irwandi titled Hidup Sebagai Perempuan (Living as a Woman), yes it was just uploaded a few minutes ago.
I knew Ferry Irwandi when he was still a civil servant, not very intensely but I knew his journey, at least the values he held, both for his personal life and his nationalism.
(Docuvlog & Middle Age Journal) I like that content.
Ferry Irwandi’s distinctive opening “Hi Civilians”
Until now Ferry Irwandi has been an extraordinary person initiating the Malaka project, he is brave and able to gather extraordinary people, crazy people who want to break the anomalies that exist in society.
Who wouldn’t think he is a perfect man?
Everyone on social media must think so, just look at the values he holds, and their implementation. Yes, that’s actually done by Ferry.
But Ferry Irwandi is still human, in the Teman Makan video titled Hidup Sebagai Perempuan (Living as a Woman), he said that living as a woman is not easy (Women Have Less Chances of Failure).
He seemed to regret not having enough time to communicate and support his partner regarding what they dreamed of and needed.
Due to lack of support, reduced communication, it made his partner feel insecure, Ferry said insecurity is a disease that will gnaw at you from within.
because she is a woman, a wife, a mother, and so on.
With the same intelligence, women have fewer opportunities compared to men, Ferry said. If seen from a cultural background, almost all of it weighs on women.
Apart from their personal problems, there is nothing better than evaluation and improvement. And the song “Disclosure” sung by Muthia Nadhira conveys the message precisely, making me emotional.
Disclosure Muthia Nadira
Women can be independent, but if she has given her heart to someone then she will depend on them for life, she needs that man to always be there, always loyal.
But if something has become excessive, to the point of interfering with your time with your partner, if it continues, it will become a seed of suspicion that will cause problems.
For men, women are “perfect creations” but within women themselves, there is vulnerability thinner than a strand of hair.
Yes, this is very relatable to my recent experience, how a woman’s feelings can become heaven and earth in the blink of an eye, and the path she chooses is absolute.
It’s true what Ferry & Muthia said that there is no chance of failure for women, there aren’t many chances to try.
Women are not perfect beings, but are demanded to be perfect.
Being a woman is painful, being a mother is exhausting, is being a wife also a burden?
Muthia in her lyrics is very specific that what she wants is just attention, but sometimes men with their busyness consider their work the most important, which sometimes neglects their partner’s desires.
As a man reading this, maybe not all of it is relatable, this is understandable because men and women have different ways of expressing their love.
Because of that difference, communication becomes important, to understand each other and fight together. It’s not just men who fight, women actually want to contribute too, therefore two-way communication is needed to find a priority point.
Sometimes men like to make unilateral decisions, stop underestimating women’s thoughts!
Song lyrics (En)
I need you more than ever
but you wasnt there for me
Im waiting for you in our bed till you came home at three
Strolling around the city with some other girl
Whos got a time to looking pretty for somebodys man
How could i ever compete with her
You said im the visualisation of your imagination
Though i couldnt be a ten but what have i done to give you the right
Fooling around the whole year with some other girl
Whos got a time to looking pretty for somebodys man
How could i ever compete with her
All i ever ask was attention
but you turn your back left me hopeless
I put my trust but you toasted it away like it was nothing
Strolling around the city with some other girl
Fooling around the whole year with some other girl
Whos got a time to looking pretty for somebodys man
How could i ever compete with her
How could i ever trust you again
Lirik Terjemahan MUTHIA NADHIRA-DISCLOSURE
Aku membutuhkanmu lebih dari sebelumnya
tapi kamu tidak ada untukku
Aku menunggumu di tempat tidur kita
hingga kamu pulang jam tiga
Berjalan-jalan di sekitar kota dengan gadis lain
Yang punya waktu untuk berdandan cantik demi pria orang lain
Bagaimana aku bisa bersaing dengannya
Kamu bilang aku adalah visualisasi dari imajinasimu
Meskipun aku tidak bisa jadi sepuluh,
tapi apa yang telah kulakukan
sehingga kamu merasa berhak
Bermain-main sepanjang tahun dengan gadis lain
Yang punya waktu untuk berdandan cantik demi pria orang lain
Bagaimana aku bisa bersaing dengannya
Yang aku minta hanyalah perhatian
tapi kamu berbalik meninggalkanku
tanpa harapan Aku menaruh kepercayaanku tapi kamu menghancurkannya begitu saja seperti tidak ada artinya
Berjalan-jalan di sekitar kota dengan gadis lain
Bermain-main sepanjang tahun dengan gadis lain
Yang punya waktu untuk berdandan cantik demi pria orang lain
Bagaimana aku bisa bersaing dengannya
Bagaimana aku bisa mempercayaimu lagi.
