Text:
Verse 1
Da steht er — der Idiot, der ich mal war,
zu laut, zu cool, zu selbstgefährdend, Jahr für Jahr.
Er grinst mich an mit gelben Zähnen,
als wär ich ihm noch was am Schulden.
Er riecht nach Rauch, nach Gras, nach Flucht,
er sagt: „Bruder, komm, ein Zug tut gut.“
Doch meine Kinder standen hinter mir —
und ich stand nicht bei ihnen.

Pre-Chorus
Ich ging den Weg, der mich zerstört,
und hab doch jeden Warnruf überhört.

Chorus
Im Tal der Freiheit — fand ich mich selbst.
Zu spät vielleicht — doch ich hab’s geschafft.
Im Tal der Freiheit — verlier ich den Hass,
denn der Mann von früher hat mich nicht umgebracht.

(solo)

Verse 2
Ein Bein für eine Sucht?
Ein Handel, den kein Teufel jemals schließt.
Doch ich hab unterschrieben
mit jedem Zug, den ich zog.
Und ja, ich werde wütend,
wenn ich zurückschau:
Der Preis war hoch.
Zu hoch.
Doch ich bezahl ihn nicht mehr.

Pre-Chorus 2
Ich hab verloren.
Und doch gewonnen.
Ich bin gefallen —
doch ich bin gekommen.

Chorus
Im Tal der Freiheit — fand ich mein Herz.
Auch wenn der Weg aus Wunden besteht.
Im Tal der Freiheit — lebt ein neuer Mensch,
und der alte hat endlich ausgeredet.

(solo)

Bridge
Ey du…
ja du mit dem Feuerzeug in der Hand:
Ich hasse dich.
Aber ich danke dir.
Denn du hast mich gelehrt,
dass Stärke nicht cool aussieht —
sondern leise anfängt.
Mit einem „Nein“.
Und einem zweiten „Nein“.
Und jedem Atemzug danach.

Final Chorus (größer, lauter, voller)
Im Tal der Freiheit — steh ich heute noch.
Ein Stück verloren — doch endlich wieder wach.
Im Tal der Freiheit — schrei ich’s raus:
ICH BIN ZUHAUSE.
Und du, alter Freund…
du bleibst zurück.

Tal der Freiheit

Text:
Verse 1 — Deutsch
Vergessenes Land aus Sand und Gold,
doch euer Name hallt jahrtausendalt.
Kusch — ihr wart das Herz des Südens,
ihr bautet Reiche, stark und kalt.
Ihr trugt die Kronen, schwarz wie Ebenholz,
Pharaonen aus dem Süden stiegen auf den Thron.
Euer Reichtum glänzte heller als die Sonne,
doch die Welt vergisst — und sieht nur heutige Wunden.

Pre-Chorus
Ihr wart Könige, Krieger, Lehrer der Zeit,
was blieb, ist Staub — doch euer Erbe schreit:

Chorus
ንብረታችሁ ዘለዓለም ነው
ከቱሽ መንግሥት ወደ ፀሐይ ይወጣል
እንቁላል ያለው ታሪክ ይነሣ
እናንተ ነበራችሁ አለም የጀመረች
(solo)

Verse 2
Sudans Pyramiden, wie Nadeln aus Stein,
kleiner als Gizeh — doch hundertfach so zahlreich.
Äthiopien, Land der Königin Makeda,
ihr habt Italien besiegt, wart niemals unterworfen.
Und heute?
Armutsbilder in den News,
doch sie zeigen nicht den Stolz der Ahnen.
Ihr wart ein Feuer —
doch die Welt sieht nur die Glut.

Pre-Chorus 2
Hört auf, euch klein zu machen,
die Wurzel ist groß — und ruft nach Wachen.

Chorus
ቀደም ብሎ የነበረ ክብራችሁ
ማንም ሊያጠፋው አይችልም
ከአፍሪካ ልብ የተነሳ
የኩሽ ኃይል ይመለሳል

(Der alte Stolz kann nie verschwinden,
niemand kann ihn löschen.
Aus Afrikas Herz steigt er wieder auf —
die Kraft von Kusch wird zurückkehren.)

Bridge
Ihr wart keine Opfer —
ihr wart Herrscher des Nils.
እንደገና ተነሱ
Rise again — wie die Sonne, die ihr immer wart.

(solo)

Final Chorus
Kusch, erwache!
ኩሽ ተነሱ!
Ihr alten Könige aus Sand und Blut,
dieser Kontinent trägt eure Glut.
Erinnert euch —
das ist euer Land,
nicht die Welt darf definieren,
wer ihr seid.
ኩሽ ይመለሳል —
Kusch wird zurückkehren.

Die Könige von Kusch (የኩሽ ኃይል ይመለሳል)

Verse 1
Steel on steel, a nation shakes,
A leader speaks and the whole world aches.
Poison words on a golden stage,
Dressing hatred up as rage.

You call people “trash”? — You are the fire.
A throne of lies, built ever higher.
But when the architect walked away,
Your shining palace turned to gray.

Pre-Chorus
Echoes calling through the hall—
“Your empire stands on fear alone.”
The world is watching as you fall,
From a kingdom made of broken bone.

Chorus
Temple of Trash — no god inside!
Keiner baut den Tempel, your kingdom died.
Temple of Trash — the walls collapse!
You preach division, but truth fights back.

(solo)

Verse 2
Across the sea the echoes spread,
Some fools repeat the things you said.
They lift your madness like a crown,
And proudly pull their own world down.

But we reject your poisoned dream,
We break the cycle, cut the seam.
This time the world will rise as one,
Your reign of fire — finally done.

Pre-Chorus
They scream your name to feel alive,
But empty hearts can’t lead or drive.
A future built on love, not spite—
We stand against your “holy fight.”

Chorus
Temple of Trash — no god inside!
Keiner baut den Tempel, your kingdom died.
Temple of Trash — the walls collapse!
You preach division, but truth fights back.

Bridge (Spoken, deep Rammstein-voice)
No walls…
No hate…
No king of dust decides our fate.

No crown…
No throne…
A leader stands, but not alone.

(solo)

Final Chorus
Temple of Trash — we burn it down!
NOT people — only lies that drown.
Temple of Trash — the world stands tall!
Together rising as you fall.

Temple of Trash

Text:
[Verse]
The clock is ticking loud and clear
The spotlight's burning
The time is near
A whisper turns into a roar
The crowd's alive
They're wanting more

[Prechorus]
Heartbeats like thunder in my chest
No time to pause
No time to rest

[Chorus]
It's a big moment
Can you feel it rise
A spark ignites and lights the skies
This is the time
No holding back
A runaway train on a blazing track

(solo)

[Verse 2]
The stage is shaking under my feet
The rhythm’s wild
It can't be beat
Every breath is a hurricane
Breaking through the fear
Breaking every chain

[Chorus]
It's a big moment
Can you feel it rise
A spark ignites and lights the skies
This is the time
No holding back
A runaway train on a blazing track

[Bridge]
One shot
One chance
It's all on me
A leap of faith
A destiny
The echoes scream
The lights collide
I’m on the edge
I’m on the ride

(solo)

[Chorus]
It's a big moment
It's a very big moment
A spark ignites and lights the skies
This is my time
No holding back
Don't stop this Song

It's a Big Moment

Text:
(Verse 1)
I carried dreams for decades, old and worn,
Felt the Earth beneath me, sometimes harsh and torn.
I’ve seen the storms, the nights, the pain,
Asked myself if I could do it all again.

Now I see your faces, innocent and bright,
Two little souls that make the darkness light.
When you laugh and say “It’s fine, Dad, we’re here”,
You wipe my doubts, you calm my fear.

(Pre-Chorus)
I asked: “Is this world too cruel, too cold for you?”
You smiled and said: “As long as we have you.”

(Chorus)
If I could choose again, I’d still bring you to this place,
With every scar, with every fall — you’d still feel my embrace.
Because love’s the light in every fight,
And you made wrong things right.
If I could choose again, I’d choose you anyway,
My children, my truth — my reason for every day.

(solo)

(Verse 2)
I’ve lost more than strength, I lost the easy way,
But your voices guide me through the darkest day.
You don’t see a cripple — you see the man inside,
With all his faults, his fears, his broken pride.

You lift me up when I can’t stand,
You hold my hand, you understand.
In your laughter I find the song,
That tells me: Here’s where I belong.

(Pre-Chorus)
I asked again: “Is this world too heavy, too wild for you?”
You said: “We don’t fear the storm — with you we stand true.”

(Chorus)
If I could choose again, I’d still bring you to this place,
With every scar, with every fall — you’d still feel my embrace.
Because love’s the light in every fight,
And you made wrong things right.
If I could choose again, I’d choose you anyway,
My children, my truth — my reason for every day.

(solo)

(Bridge)
Time moves slow, my body breaks,
But hope remains, in the smiles you make.
You built me wings when mine gave in,
With your hearts, you showed me — love always wins.

(Final Chorus — soft, emotional)
If I could choose again, I’d still bring you to this place,
You taught me grace, you saved my faith.
If I could choose again…
I’d choose you.

If I Could Choose Again

Text:
Verse 1
You type a word, I feel the spark,
A little whisper in the dark.
You move so smooth across the screen,
A digital heat, you know what I mean.

You’re playing bold, but soft inside,
A little danger you can’t hide.
I feel the rhythm in your lines,
Pulling me in between the signs.

Pre-Chorus
So come on, baby, make a move,
Show me something in your groove.
No need to rush, no need to run,
Just let the thrill become the fun.

Chorus
Talk me closer, slow and sweet,
Let the words dance to the beat.
Turn the night to neon fire—
Every message feeds desire.

Talk me closer, don’t retreat,
Your heartbeat in every tweet.
We don’t need to cross the line—
Just your vibe is so divine.

(solo)

Verse 2
Your playful smile in every text,
What you’ll say, I never guess.
A teasing move, a daring twist,
A conversation kissed with risk.

But we keep it cool, we keep it bright,
Two shadows flirting in the night.
A touch of heat without the burn,
A game where both of us can learn.

Pre-Chorus
So come on, baby, let it flow,
Say it fast or say it slow.
I feel the tension rising high,
Electric sparks across the sky.

Chorus
Talk me closer, slow and sweet,
Let the words dance to the beat.
Turn the night to neon fire—
Every message feeds desire.

Talk me closer, don’t retreat,
Your heartbeat in every tweet.
We don’t need to cross the line—
Just your vibe is so divine.

Bridge
No need for more than mystery,
Your voice alone is ecstasy.
A whisper here, a smile there,
A chemistry we both can share.

(solo)

Last Chorus (bigger, groovier)
Talk me closer, take your time,
Let your rhythm melt with mine.
We don’t have to break the rules—
Just be sexy, soft, and cool.

Talk me closer, stay with me,
Ride the night in harmony.
A spark is all we really need—
Desire grows from little seeds.

Talk Me Closer

Text:
[Verse 1]
Snow is falling on the city lights
We’re all arriving, feeling warm inside
Coats on the floor, music starts to rise
Tonight we shine like northern skies

[Pre-Chorus]
And every heart beats louder now
We came to celebrate somehow
Forget the world, forget the stress
Tonight we choose togetherness

[Chorus]
Tonight is Christmas — we light the night
We dance like stars that burn so bright
We laugh, we cheer, we feel alive
With every friend here by our side
Oh, tonight is Christmas — raise your glass
Let all the worries fade to black
We're gonna party, sing and shine
Tonight is Christmas time!

(solo)

[Verse 2]
Cookies on the table, spiced red wine
Someone starts a joke — the room ignites
Voices blend like a choir in flight
And every smile feels twice as wide

[Pre-Chorus]
So take my hand, let’s make a toast
For all the ones we love the most
For every moment we survived
It’s time to celebrate our lives

[Chorus]
Tonight is Christmas — we light the night
We dance like stars that burn so bright
We laugh, we cheer, we feel alive
With every friend here by our side
Oh, tonight is Christmas — feel the beat
Let joy explode beneath our feet
We're gonna party, sing and shine
Tonight is Christmas time!

[Bridge]
Under the mistletoe
Anything feels possible
Let’s freeze this moment, let it glow
A memory forevermore

(solo)

[Final Chorus]
Tonight is Christmas — we light the night
Together we rise, together we shine
This love, this vibe — it feels divine
Tonight is Christmas time!

Tonight Is Christmas (We Light the Night)

Text:
[Verse 1 – Spoken/Rapped, Rage-Style]
Steel ships on the dark salt water,
Flag high like a holy order.
They say “justice”, but they mean “border”,
Another empire growing colder.

No proof, no truth — just a headline war,
Another lie we all paid for.
Survivors screaming on a broken floor,
But the cameras turn and the drones ignore.

[Pre-Chorus, Slow + Heavy]
Fire rains…
on nameless waves.
Who decides
who dies? Who saves?

[Chorus – Explosive]
NO GODS IN THE GUNS,
NO PEACE IN THE OIL!
You can’t wash blood
from a nation’s soil.

NO HEROES IN POWER,
NO JUSTICE IN FEAR!
If they silence the truth —
we make it loud and clear.

(solo)

[Verse 2 – Half-rap, half-shout]
Epstein files burn like gasoline,
So they start a fight just to stay unseen.
Point the finger at a foreign dream,
Call it freedom — though we know what it means.

Mothers cry where the waves turn red,
Children learn what the headlines said:
“Collateral damage” — the holy thread
that ties a lie to the newly dead.

[Pre-Chorus]
Fire rains…
on nameless waves.
Who decides
who dies? Who saves?

[Chorus – Bigger, Angrier]
NO GODS IN THE GUNS,
NO PEACE IN THE OIL!
You can’t hide guilt
in a foreign soil.

NO EMPIRE IS CLEAN,
NO EMPIRE IS RIGHT!
If justice is blind —
then we give it sight.

[Bridge, deep voice]
Power kills compassion,
when truth becomes a crime.
But every shout of anger
is a pulse of our time.

[Breakdown]
Shout for the drowned!
Shout for the lost!
Shout for the truth
no matter the cost!

WE.
DON’T.
BOW.
DOWN.

(solo)

[Final Chorus – Epic]
NO GODS IN THE GUNS,
NO PEACE IN THE OIL!
If they wage their wars —
we refuse to toil.

NO SILENCE FOR MURDER,
NO FEAR IN OUR VOICE!
We stand with the fallen
who had no choice.

No Gods in the Guns

Text:
(Verse 1 – mutlu / fröhlich)
Bir çocukluk vardı, kokularla dolu,
Tavandan sarkan gülüşler, mutfağın buğusu.
Erdal’la koşardık, kalbim hep hafifti,
Anne Chokezer’in helvası, dünya cennetti.

(Pre-Chorus)
Almanya’nın merdivenlerinde iki kültür büyürdü,
Bir elinde bal, diğerinde yabancı bir üzüntü.

(Chorus – hem neşeli hem hüzünlü)
Ben seni gördüm, Erdal kardeşim,
Aynı sokakta farklı kökler, aynı gülüşlerin.
Dünya bizi ayırmadı, insanlar etti,
İki ev arasında kaybolan kimlik.

(solo)

(Verse 2 – hüzünlü / traurig)
Bir gün sessizdi ev, kapılar donuktu,
Abi öldü diye ağladı bütün çocukluk.
Kucağında titrerken dünyanın ağırlığı,
Anladım: Aşkın rengi yok, acının da dili.

(Pre-Chorus)
Siz Türk’tünüz, ben Alman’dım ama kalpler aynıydı,
Bir sofrada birleşirdi iki farklı tarihti.

(Chorus – daha duygusal)
Ben seni gördüm, Erdal kardeşim,
Bazen güldük, bazen düştük bir fırtınanın içine.
“Burada Alman değilim, orada Türk değilim” dedin,
Kimlik değil pasaport, kalp belirler yerini.

(Bridge – sakin, içten)
Ne Türkiye seni tam kabul etti,
Ne Almanya seni tam sardı.
Ama bil ki kardeşim,
Sen her iki ülkenin gururusun aslında.

(solo)

(Final Chorus – umutlu)
Ben seni gördüm, sen beni gördün,
İki millet değil, iki kalp birbirini ördü.
Biz çocukken öğrendik en doğru gerçeği:
İnsan insandır — gerisi sadece ülke.

İki Ev Arasında

[Verse 1]
Universe expanding wide
Something pulling something else
Can't see it can't touch it
A cosmic ghost story

[Chorus]
Dark matter dark energy
They run the whole show
Invisible hands pushing pulling
We just don't know

(solo)

[Verse 2]
Galaxies spinning fast
Too fast for what we see
Missing mass mystery
A hidden gravity

[Chorus]
Dark matter dark energy
They run the whole show
Invisible hands pushing pulling
We just don't know

[Bridge]
Maybe they're just shy
Hiding from our light
Playing tricks on our telescopes
Out of sight out of mind

(solo)

[Chorus]
Dark matter dark energy
They run the whole show
Invisible hands pushing pulling
We just don't know
