[Hook]
So much power, still so much steam in the lung
This town is like a jungle, rats (are) extreme1in the group
Grief, because (there is) too much hate due to nonsense
Long fingers twist things, but bent
And if you're not a part of it, you will never see
One wears a tie, the other one a cuete2under his suit
And if you don't come from the bottom, you won't understand
The fight of "Good and bad"3never gets by here
[Part 1]
We are only as right4as the world allows us to be
For money you break in, for criminal offense out again
Only one thing makes us the same, really everyone has a dream
When the flower can break the asphalt, brother, we can make it too
Not even experience is for free, you have to learn it the hard way.
Between workmates,5that do the back-breaking job on the construction
That one, that learns until his head smokes, since dad is counting on him
Or kids without an home, that (would) stab (someone) for Air Max6
Or we, that stay up until the bills are purple again7
The ones that always screw8on the sound, because we will not give up the hope that discs will be sold
But slowly it's going uphills, only due to verses in the rapping
You can see uncles loosing their hair
Because cousins are going to jail again, only due to nonsense
(They) forget, that their last glance infront of the arrest
Only breaks mom's heart once more

[Part 2]
Strongly underrated, because here you start from the bottom
The cowardly normally stay unwounded in a fight
Death stands at the finishing line with a stopwatch and counts the time for every round
We didn't settle ours fights according after points
A powder keg with a really short fuse
Unfortunately a little spark is eneough to make everything start firing
But rarely one of us is carries in the fire
The dirt here is honest, carries the heart on the tounge, he
stays at home, the smog, that already forms us
Even when we are still in the stomach9, but what can we do?
The devil, that whispers: "Surround by rats
but only the darkness tells you, that the light would be the shadow!"
Big mouth, noone from us is a doctor in maths
But in the end the cash register is still right10
The hunger too big for the piece of cake, that they left
But share it with the weak with love

[Outro]
Come11to the world clean, the skins smells like milk
The ash in the air brings us up in the films
A little bit of dirt on the west is not so bad out here
then she12only gets a meaning from the dust
Come to the world clean, the skins smells like milk
