Wenn der Mond in mein Ghetto kracht [English translation]

[Hook]

This life is like solitary confinement, I'll only draw the gun

if the moon crashes down into my ghetto

Things go bad for everyone, no one grants anything to others

I'll draw the gun when the moon crashes down into my ghetto

[Verse 1]

I had to beg for my dole

People here murder for a violet bank note1

Here in the ghetto literally everyone plays the lottery

No one's satisfied with his 300€ netto per month

No one's a millionaire here

One million depts, so we need two millions2

Your mum pushs the pram

She's 17 years old and still a little child

Here in this prefabricated building everyone grows up without a father

Proud fathers raise the sons with a harsh fist

Everyone ends up as drug dealer

Either on the needle or 15 years behind bars

Even my brother sits for a lifetime

at a place where a human can't life

In our district there's no sunshine

You'll be overflown by worries

Everyone mourns when the sky is weeping

[Hook]

This life is like solitary confinement, I'll only draw the gun

if the moon crashes down into my ghetto

Things go bad for everyone, no one grants anything to others

I'll draw the gun when the moon crashes down into my ghetto

[Verse 2]

Man, everyone's nerves are on the edge here

Even a taxi driver begs to his costumers with an empty fuel tank

Children hang out beneath bridges

I pray to god that one child will manage getting onto the bridge

My best friend was in the orphanage

Here you have no perspective if it's not mum but an educator who's screaming at you

Everyone threatens each other because he has even more pain

The asphalt explodes when the moon crashes down into my ghetto

In my district, 10 out of 10 are unemployed

9 out of 10 claim that illegal employment is profitable3

So it goes the whole life, don't you start talking 'bout rules

One against one, man, then I'll settle it4

It's like a street fight, who's afraid of the street

My hearts and soul are attached to the street

Yes, I've been to a psychotherapist

I'm scarred inside, that gangster who cries, too

[Hook]

This life is like solitary confinement, I'll only draw the gun

if the moon crashes down into my ghetto

Things go bad for everyone, no one grants anything to others

I'll draw the gun when the moon crashes down into my ghetto
