Leben leben [English translation]

I have to play these games with the system here

But I am waving around in the wind like flies do when they are flying

Often I am desperate because my drives were driving me

Often I only have hate left, but want to love out of love

I am looking for nature where there are round balls rolling

Looking for creeks and rivers where good fizzy water is fizzing

Have to shout out calls of freedom, between blowballs 1 after the future

Searching on a treasure hunt, but only find bad remains

Have to drink murky drinks, eat salty food,

Apply black make-up

Have to release my soul and dress it in a dress

I have to rhyme my rhymes on a beat

I have to release my spirit

Pray prayers to God

But I can't find peace

Don't need anything to read

I don't listen to the people who give big speeches

I only want to live my life

It is about time, it is about time

I am going to give everything

It is about time, it is about time

I want to live my life

Live my life

I am going to give everything!

I have to write my poem

And think the way thinkers do

Look at me, my fate, steer thinkers with the driver

Have to kneel on my knees, like when laying tiles

Often I can only hate, but want to love out of love

I have to grieve out of grief and because troubles bother me

I cannot see rays of sunshine shining in the sky

Can never bathe in the sun because of the clouds

I see my worries roll over me like coils

I sense a thunderstorm, that will shower me like showers

Do not see any rainbows, but slide like on slides,

Life sends me for a bath, like when swimmers swim

I always only catch a boot when I am out fishing,

But when the embers smoulder

And I feel feelings

And when the rage is raging, I have to tie up the laces

And smooth my own paths, and knead everything that is in my way like dough

I only want to live my life

It is about time, it is about time

I am going to give everything

It is about time, it is about time

I want to live my life

Live my life

I am going to give everything!
