Kartel · Other Songs - Kartel

Kazes da zivot je tezak
a ustvari ne znas ni sam
da li krenuti sve ispocetka
ili cekati kraj

Reci mi
reci mi

Koliko bolno je sada
skinuti s ociju mrak
osmeh sa lica laznog
koje upoznaje strah

Reci mi
reci mi

Probaj da hodas koracima mojim
pa onda reci da l' mozda smo isti mi
probaj da hodas koracima mojim
na samom kraju ko smo stvarno mi

Reci mi
reci mi

A rock song about trying to understand

Kartel's “Probaj” (“Try”) asks listeners to consider how much they really know about another person's life before judging it. The song's idea is empathetic rather than abstract: understanding might begin by trying to see the world from someone else's position. Its direct title turns that invitation into a challenge, encouraging perspective-taking without presenting the answer as easy or automatic.

The track appeared on Kartel's 2012 album *Možda baš ti*. The band draws on Balkan rock and alternative influences, with a straightforward arrangement that leaves the song's message in the foreground. “Probaj” sits alongside other tracks on the album that reflect on life, relationships and personal experience, giving the release a mix of emotional and social themes.

A dependable chart position is not widely recorded, but the song remains available through streaming and the band's online catalogue. Its appeal lies in a familiar but useful principle: empathy requires effort, and it is not enough to assume that another person's circumstances are the same as your own. “Probaj” gives that idea the compact form of a rock song, using a clear title and memorable melody to make its invitation easy to carry beyond the track itself.
