Laival eka laival vika [English translation]

Who says you can get results with no effort

I don't believe them, I give it everything I've got

Real Mäkki, not a coastal Russkie,

a real authentic Estonian

You wanted to beat me when I was down,

But I won't get knocked out, I am ready

You gotta be first on the boat, last on the boat

I have what it takes

During the night, I hustle my 1 kg bag

Every night, you see in you dream,

the only and real Mäkki

Yolo swag, straigt outta Mustamäe,

Hashtag: barely through the Customs

No more militsiya 1, I shouted aloud:

independent Estonia at last,

Ready to party2 until I die,

They try to send real Mäkki back to Tallinn

But I ain't going back, it's too expensive there

They closed the old Mustamäe market

Won't find any pirated goods,

With minimum wage came to build your home, boy

We'll roll up in your yard with a van

You start to hear the chatter in northern patois

And when the hammer is not tapping,

you find these carpenters, drinking Saku3 at a club

Who says you can get results with no effort

I don't believe them, I put all in

Real Mäkki, not a coastal Russkie,

an authentic real Estonian

You wanted to beat me when I was down,

But I don't get knocked out, I am ready

You gotta be first on the boat, last on the boat

I have it what it takes

Raivo, are you broke4 ?

Leave the Third World

All together5 to Tallink

No time to sleep

Hear the call of Saarenmaa Tuulik3

Where you smell wood filler

Not gonna pass out6, at the deck of the ship

So that the Border Guard won't recognize me as drug mule

With an Estonian look, slav haircut7, and too drunk

Most def will get caught at the Customs

No need for translation, I get the problem

I am not a racist, my chaffeur is a Russkie

Even though it was hard in the early 90s,

and pockets empty (no money)

Nowadays I do what I please

No trade unions, no strikes, no sick leaves

Come look at the construction site,

This ain't no scam

I am the most real Estonian,

who has lived since my dad (rest in peace)

[2x]

Who says you can get results with no effort

I don't believe them, I put all in

Real Mäkki, not a coastal Russkie,

an authentic real Estonian

You wanted to beat me when I was down,

But I don't get knocked out, I am ready

You gotta be first on the boat, last on the boat

I have it what it takes

1. Soviet-era polica2. dipata, "to dip", not sure what this means in contemporary Helsinki/rap slang (not referring to dipping your chips into a bbq sauce)3. a. b. Estonian beer4. literally "rikki = broken", and I think it is an Anglicism, meaning "are you broke?" (with no money)5. "Kaik yhes koos" might be a reference to old Finnish sketch on Estonian Aerobics class by Vintiöt? "Kaido Kuukap & Voimlemisen karpsed" https://youtu.be/1Yn4y13R1ps6. "ottaa lepii" = to rest7. literally "letti = braid/plait", but in slang means just haircut. I assume that this means this "gopnik/slav haircut" combed straight down with the hair resting on your forehead? e.g. https://i.imgur.com/JHEEbF1.jpg
