Being from Ukraine, Lina has been very vocal about her love for her country and her roots. She dedicated “Something To Lose” to the war between Ukraine and Russia.
The sample that starts off the song is an air raid siren that goes off every time the country is under attack.

Dammit California
Don't you know that I am hurting?
Put the sun away, bring out the rain
Can you be sad for me?
Dammit happy people
Can't you see that I'm in mourning?
For the past that's gone, the days to come
Can you just grieve for me?
But some things just make you a pessimist
'Cause if there's hope I've lost all of it
Some things just make you an atheist
'Cause if there's a God, then he's full of shit
And it's strange how I got so used to
The pain of wondering if you
Will be around for a day or two
When I wake in the morning
Hope I still have something to lose
Dammit higher powеr
Can't you see the pain you're causing?
I try to look for light in the darkеst hour
Can we just catch a pause?
Aren't we already fucked enough?
Have some sympathy and give it up
It's a nightmare that I can't wake up from
Now aching has just become the norm
But some things just make you a pessimist
'Cause if there's hope I've lost all of it
Some things just make you an atheist
'Cause if there's a God, then he's full of shit
It's strange how I got so used to
The pain of wondering if you
Will be around for a day or two
When I wake in the morning
Hope I still have something to lose
Oh, oh, oh
When I wake in the morning
Hope I still have something
Some things you can't really speak about
Some things you can't really turn around
Now when we speak every time
Why does it feel like we're saying goodbyes?
Some things you can't really let go of
Some things you wish you would never know of
So I lay with my eyes open hoping
It's gonna be over once I am woken
It's strange how I got so used to
The pain of wondering if you
Will be around for a day or two
When I wake in the morning
Hope I still have something to lose
Oh, oh, oh
When I wake in the morning
Hope I still have something to lose
