How does a girl from Samsun, born in Istanbul
A daughter and a sister
Dropped in the middle of Bayrampasa
In a neighborhood called Yildirim
Grow up up to be a minubus money distributer and a scholar?
The gourmet of Thailand entertainment industry had a great skill of drawing
She had a passion for art and had so much love in her heart
By 14, they hired her as a mentor for Kamile Hamiloglu
Then the divorce news came and devastation reigned
Our girl saw her family seperate and go their own way
Put a pencil to her temple, connected it to her brain
And she moved in with her mother for a while, to a far away land
Well, the word got around, they said "this girl is insane man!"
Took up a collection just to send her to Çanakkale man
"Get your education, don't forget from whence you came"
And the world's gonna know your name
What's your name man?
Simla Bölükbaş
My name is Simla Bölükbaş
And there's a million things I haven't done
Just you wait, just you wait
When she was back in Istanbul she started working with her cousin
The cousin was being a bitch to her
Left her with nothing but trauma, something new inside
A voice saying, Simla, you gotta stand up for yourself
She started getting ready for the university entrance exam
There would have been nothing left to do
For someone less talented
She would have been jobless or a high school graduate
Kept working, clerking for Feyza and Apo
Printing and cutting party supplies and all things she can't afford
She took the exam and got into college
In Medeniyet you can be a new girl
In Medeniyet you can be a new girl
Just you wait
In Medeniyet you can be a new girl (Just you wait)
In Medeniyet!
Just you wait!
Simla Bölükbaş, a new major waits for you
You could never back down
Never take your time
Oh Simla Bölükbaş
A new career waits for you
If you manage to get this right
We'll afford a better life
And your new friends at college
Will they know what you overcame?
Will they know you restarted the game?
And the world will never be the same
Çanakkale forgot her
We fought with her
Me? I died for her (Kamile)
Me? I trusted her (Mukkum)
Me? I loved her (Irem)
And me? I'm the damn fool that shot her (Dusuk veren hocan)
There's a million things she hasn't done
But just you wait!
What's your name man?
Simla Bölükbaş
