Mustafa Sandal & İndira Elemes – Yoksay (Ignore/Ignore me)
Meaning of the Lyrics of Mustafa Sandal’s “Yoksay”
Mustafa Sandal’s “Yoksay” is a song that addresses the tension and urgency of a strained relationship. The track revolves around a clear ultimatum: either take decisive action to resolve ongoing issues, or face the consequences of separation.
The song’s central message is a firm call for change. Lyrics like “Çözüm bulmalısın bence bu derde” — “You need to find a solution to this problem, I think,” emphasize the need for addressing the relationship’s problems. If the necessary changes aren’t made, separation is inevitable: “Ben gidersem dönmem” — “If I leave, I won’t come back.”
“Üzülürsün, ben üzülmem” — “You’ll be sad, I won’t.” This recognition reveals an understanding that while the person making the demand may remain emotionally detached, the other party will feel the effects of the breakup. The repeated refrain of “Yok say beni” — “Ignore me” — reinforces the ultimatum and readiness to walk away if changes are not made.
