you work your ass off
and then have no time
or work your ass off
and the pay's not nearly fine
you work your ass off to get on your feet
look at your life like one long worksheet

you think you suck
you think you will fail
one scary schedule
the end of the scale 
not being alive
given all of those deadlines 
toxic term what 
 if you don’t get  there in time?

always the same or
no rhythm at all 
feeling different, too much alcohol
not doing what you are supposed to do
you're trying to find out what that is out of your own view

the sun is shining now
tomorrow there will only be clouds
so go out
out now
and if there's something to celebrate 
do it now
before its too late
don't overstep the big steps in your life
cherish what you worked so hard on all the time!

or you'll ask yourself 
what for?
and then you'll work and work and work some more
no time to think to feel to remind to sleep
hold on and be brave, life can be sweet

what for

has it ever crossed your mind
how unlikely it is that
you are who you are – right here and right now
all what has happened led to this somehow

don't know what I would have done
if I had known what would come
don't know what I would have done
if I had known what would come

a milliesecond – and that car would have hit me
a faster seed –  there’d be no me
what would happened if I had gone to
group b or c or d not a at school?

I think these „what if“-questions usually lead nowhere
no good mood, we’ll never know
still I take a close look at all what’s happened 
to understand and choose future yes and nos

don't know what I would have done
if I had known what would come
don't know what I would have done
if I had known what would come

maybe good things don’t always bring more good things
– coincidence and complex webs –
still they are good for what they are and can snowball
no one can know what happens next

of course there are actions that in my view lead obvi
ously to dire aftereffects
others think differently, they aim to destroy
what in my view is worth strictly protect

just know that all leads to somewhere until it’s over
and you can turn bad things around
think it’s worth trying to care and keep fighting
question of timing: how did it turn out ?
     
don't know what I would have done
if I had known what would come
don't know what I would have done
if I had known what would come

what if hadn't chosen those guys?
now it seems obvious 
it would end up in such a mess

but of course there are logic reasons why
I loved those not different men
a  consequence of what has been

I think I understand, I see
what traits first attracted me 
cause I’m used to them, they are known to me 

I hope we’ll choose differently (some of them are)
find better combinations        (great and they stay in my heart)
more team and less frustration

has it ever crossed your mind
how unlikely it is that
you are who you are right here right now
all what has happened let to this some how
has it ever?

has it ever crossed your mind?

O.T.T.E feat. Rike Rina

I do wonder about the future.
"Crystal ball me", tell me, what do I want to see?

And will we remember, how we first met that almost november?
And will you be always be, always be there?
What did I see in you?

Someday, we will know, if we made some children, fulfilled some dreams and maybe built a life and a home and our own family.
We will see, what will be.

Do I still believe in us?
What will be, will be.
