Most of the people here know I'm a hardcore metal lover, doesn't mean that I don't listen to anything else, I listen to almost all kinds of music, but I LOVE metal. There's this AWESOME Turkish metal band called Mezarkabul (Pentagram in Turkey) formed in the 1980s and still the best Turkish metal band in the world. All of their songs have a special meaning behind the lyrics. Here, I'll post two of my favorite Mezarkabul songs, one's in Turkish and one's English.
The first one's Bir ("One" in Turkish). It's kinda a religious song, so non-religious people, don't mind. No translator was working perfectly for me so I just did my own translation. I've posted the lyrics down too.

Lyrics:
Ates toprak hava olmus Fire, earth, air have been created,
Yagur olmus, hayat vermis sana rain has been created, giving life to you.
Kalbin olmus, ruhun olmus Your heart was made, your soul was made,
Aklin olumus, yol gostermis sana Your mind was made and it guides you.
Bir omurluk maceranda In your adventure of one lifetime
Hikayeni anlat bana tell me your story.
Ne anlam verdin sen buna What did you make of all this?
Ruhunda neler var senin What is in your soul?
Korkma ondan bundan Dont be afraid of this and that
Ne olumden, ne hayattan (fear) neither death nor life
Bu dunyada gorduklerinin Everything you see on this earth
Hepsi bir, hepsi haktan All are one, all are from God.
Atalarna malum olmus Your ancestors received divine inspiration
Kitap yazmis anlatmislar sana they wrote books to pass it on to you
Imam rahip, rehber olmus Imam and priest became your guide
Yalan yanlis aktarmislar sana deceptively and falsely passed it on you
Gunumuzun dunyasinda In today's world
Hepsi ayni, hepsi ala They all are the same, they all are divine
Isa, Musa, Muhammed, Buda Jesus, Moses, Muhammed, Buddha
Neyin varsa bilmis senin (they) knew everything about you.
Insanoglu kendini arar Humans search for their true selves
Dunya doner milim milim Earth rotates little by little
Eger gocup gidersen bugun If you were to pass away today
Yarim kalan isin var senin then you have unfinished business
Korkma ondan bundan Dont be afraid of this and that
Ne olumden, ne hayattan (fear) neither death nor life
Bu dunyada gorduklerinin Everything you see on this earth
Hepsi bir, hepsi haktan All are one, all are from God.
Insanoglu kendini arar Humans search for their true selves
Dunya doner milim milim Earth rotates little by little
Eger gocup gidersen bugun If you were to pass away today
Yarim kalan isin var senin then you have unfinished business
Korkma ondan bundan Dont be afraid of this and that
Ne olumden, ne hayattan (fear) neither death nor life
Bu dunyada gorduklerinin Everything you see on this earth
Hepsi bir, hepsi haktan All are one, all are from God.
Korkma ondan bundan Dont be afraid of this and that
Ne cehennem ne de seytan (fear) neither hell nor the devil
Bu dunyada bildiklernin Everything you know on this earth
Hepsi bir, hepsi haktan All are one, all are from God.Mezarkabul - Give Me Something To Kill The Pain
