"Now - if you're not seeking peace, love, unity and joy, there's no reason to be rapping, breaking, graffiti writing, djing - there's no reason for it. This is what's going on today. As I already said, a lot of the guys that you see or hear about - you see on television or hear about in the radio - they have no reason to rap."
Rise up, we rise up
Bis uns Flügel wachsen und wir fliegen - rise up
Vorbei an den Schwätzern, Hatern und Neidern
Mit jeder Line die ich schreibe wird mein Lichtkegel weiter - rise up
Rise up, we rise up
Der Track ist kein Brett sondern ein Hoverboard
Rise up, C R, Rise up, Z
Verschiedne Styles ergänzen sich und machen sich gegenseitig komplett
Endlich macht mich Mucke wieder Spaß
Das Biz hat mich fast kaputtgemacht, so bekam ich Druck von hier und da
Verlor mich dann im Suff und schrieb kein' Part
Meine Kunst wird noch nicht anerkannt, ich stelle 'nen zu riesigen Unterschied da
Zwar unverdient, aber wen wundert's?
Die Kultur wird hier begraben von Klickzahlen jagenden und dummverdien' im Wahn
Die Jugend nimmt die Wurzeln nicht mehr wahr
Rapper werden jetzt Sänger und wollen 'nen Ohrwurm für Streamingzahlen
Ich schreib Texte und nehm Beats wie ich mich grade fühl
Und sieh wie viel unterschiedliche Lieder und Videos es gibt von mir
Das liegt daran - ich möchte mich entfalten (Rise up)
Streue nicht weiträumig in der Hoffnung 'nen erfolgreichen Hit zu landen
Wenn's danach ginge müsst ich ganz simpel 'ne Handvoll alter Tracks meiner über 300 remaken, dann wird das was mit etwas Glück
Tracks aus der Zeit als man mich nicht mal kannte
Ich rappe [?], pump die Achtziger - verpisst euch alle!
Bin so 'n Typ der es halt nicht drauf anlegt
Und kommt mir jetzt bloß nicht damit ich hätt das Musikgeschäft missverstanden
Bin solang in dem ganzen Theaterstück Komparse bis der Plottwist ist
Criz - Hauptrolle für's Finale
Rollt mir keinen roten Teppich aus, rollt stattdessen all die Deppen darauf ein und macht es danach wie die Mafia
Das wär der Idealfall, doppeldeutig - Gottes Zeuge, dass ich sie mit ihrem Gesicht durch einen Spiegel jage
In deren Kopf wiederholt sich sowieso ein ständiges Wettrennen zwischen dem Cokerunner und Speedy Gonzales
Ich drop ne Bombe, jeder ihrer Moves - freezed wie die Arktis
Drei Scheiben in der Pipeline - unzählige Lieder sind gratis
Tut mir wirklich leid, aber für mich sind die gestört im Geist
Ihr habt Druffi-Favoriten - seid ihr Österreich?
Die rauben Kids, die knallen Cops, sind perfide im Verstand
Ich meine was anderes wenn ich sage "Mit ihnen an die Wand!"
Ich zwing sie dazu in schwindelerregender Höhe auf einem Sims zu stehen und drücke ihnen 'nen Becher Lean in die Hand
Davon lass ich mir nicht den Sommer versauen
Mach mir Luft und hol zum lyrischen Sommersound aus
Ihr seht doch was passiert, hier ist Rap-Borderland
Aber ihr macht nix, wie Jeff Hornacek
Der Wandel ist schon lange überfällig, das nicht nur im Rap
Die Kaleidoskop-Line bleibt - "Es ist wie das Z..."
Rise up, we rise up
Bis uns Flügel wachsen und wir fliegen - rise up
Vorbei an den Schwätzern, Hatern und Neidern
Mit jeder Line die ich schreib wird mein Lichtkegel weiter - rise up
Rise up, we rise up
Der Track ist kein Brett sondern ein Hoverboard
Rise up, C R, Rise up, Z
Verschiedne Styles ergänzen sich und machen sich gegenseitig komplett
Rise up, rise up, and we turn them to dust, to dust
Rise up, rise up, and we turn them to dust, to dust
Rise up, rise up, and we turn them to dust, to dust
