Song Lyrics

prinz Pi- Eifer & Sucht

Sie kommt am nächsten morgen / sieht durch aus, riecht nach Rauch / knickt auf ihren hohen Schuhen fast um, flucht, zieht sie aus / frage sie: Wo war sie? / sie sagt: Bei ihrer Freundin... / ich sage zu ihr: Verarsch mich! / sie sagt: Du weißt gar nichts! / Sagt: Na gut, war noch feiern mit paar Leuten / aber ey, da war nichts/ kenn den Typen halt auch von der Arbeit / SMS nicht bekommen, Akku war nicht geladen, geh kurz duschen, nerv mich nicht, muss jetzt schlafen / Ich fang an zu fragen - Sie hat mir nichts zu sagen / geh raus, geh zur Arbeit, habe Lust mich zu schlagen / doch ich bin kein guter Boxer -bin nur scheißwütend / auf diesen Scheißtypen -endet meist übel / vor allem für mich selber / all dieser Mist mit Weibern / Warum steht auf meinem Dach kein Bitchableiter?

Unter meiner Haut wimmelt es von Ameisen, kann ich keiner traun', giebt es noch Wahrheiten? Sie frisst mich auf, sie frisst mich auf. Eifersucht ich bin zusam' mit meiner Eifersucht.

Ungewissheit macht den Tunnelblick / Ich klicke mich ungeschickt / durch ihr Facebook...ich wette er hat sie rumgekriegt / heut mittag ihr Hundeblick...ja die hat was zu bereuen / treff mich jetzt mit ner Neuen, das wird sie nich grad freuen / Bin voll der Kindergartenspastie, seh die Fehler klar doch mach sie / ein verletzter Vollidiot macht irgendne Fickbekanntschaft aktiv / mein Telefonbuch ist lang, doch diese Nächte länger / die Gefühle werden nicht schwächer nur weil ich sie verdrängt hab / Und ich vermiss sie schrecklich / vermisse wie sie riecht / jede Nacht geht meine Hand von selbst dahin wo sie sonst liegt / und wenn wir telefonieren bin ich nich nett doch will das gar nicht / bin nur sauer auf mich selber weil sie nicht mehr in meinen Armen liegt



Unter meiner Haut wimmelt es von Ameisen, kann ich keiner traun', giebt es noch Wahrheiten? Sie frisst mich auf, sie frisst mich auf. Eifersucht ich bin zusam' mit meiner Eifersucht.

Translated, it is like this: ( I am sorry for the grammar)


Prinz Pi- eagerness& addiction (=jealousy)


She comes home in the morning / looks tired, smells of smoke / Almost sprains her foot in the high heels, swears, takes them off / I ask her where she was? / She sais she was with her friend.. / I say: You're kidding me! / She sais: You know nothing! / Sais: Well then, I was out with friends / but hey, nothing happened / I know the guy from work / Didn't get your text, phone wasn't charged, let me take my shower, don't bother me, I have to sleep now / I start making accusations- she doesn't have anything to say / Go out, go to work, want to pick a fight / but I'm not good at boxing- I'm just really mad / with that jerk-it often ends cruel / but mostly for myself / all that trouble with women / Why don't I have a liar-conductor?



Ants swarm under my skin, kann I trust no one, is there still truth? It eats me, it eats me. Jealousy, I'm together with jealousy.

Uncertainity gives me the tunnel vision / I awekwardly check her facebook...I bet she has a thing with that guy / today at lunch her puppy-eyes...yes she regrets something / I'll meet another girl now, she won't be happy abou that / I'm such a kindergarten- idiot, see the mistakes clearly but  make them / one hurt complete idiot activates an affair / my phonebook is long, but those nights are longer / The feelings won't fade away only because I blocked them out / And I miss her so bad / miss how she smells / everynight my hand goes where she normally lies / and when we're on the phone I am not nice to her but want to be / I'm so mad with myself, that she isn't with me any more

Ants swarm under my skin, kann I trust no one, is there still truth? It eats me, it eats me. Jealousy, I'm together with jealousy.

Little Green

Giving a child to adoption to offer him a better life, is certainly a tough and serious decision to make for young mothers all over the world. The Song “little green” is written by Joni Mitchell, who gave her little girl up for adoption in 1967 after she gave birth in the age at 20 and her boyfriend left to California. They had a reunion in 1997, after they searched for each other for years.  About her decision she said:

“ I was dirt poor. An unhappy mother does not raise a happy child. It was difficult parting with the child, but I had to let her go. ”In “little green” , Joni Mitchell uses pure and pretty Imagery, characterization  of an indifferent father, a troubled mother, and an innocent child, and natural personification, to show that “sometimes there’ll be sorrow”, and life sometimes requires tough decisions.

    Little Green is “born with the moon in Cancer”, so she might have been born in a summer night,being the horoscopic cancer. Singing “when the spring is born” he puts the picture of flowers in the listeners heads and the positive feeling that is associated with springtime, that might rub off to the attitude against her daughter, influencing the way, other people see her, positively. She gives us a nice hand-tight example  how “icicles and birthday” are standing for a nice and neat childhood.

Mitchell characterizes the father of little green as a “non-conformer”. He went to California, right after the girl was born, “hearing that everything’s warmer there”.  After she wrote him a letter, telling him about the birth and except from a poem, she earns indifference from his side. He seems not rally to care, in order of being so far away anyways.

Herself, she describes as a “child with a child pretending”, telling the audience, that she was really young for having a baby. She decided, to give the baby up for adoption after naming it “little green”.
About herself she talks in the third form, so at the first sight it doesn’t seem like she’s actually talking about her own experience in the song.
The child itself was “born with the moon in cancer”, so probably in a summer night. Mitchell wants her to be a “gypsy dancer” and names her little green. When she gives her up for the adoption, she sings “little green, have a happy ending”, as saying a little goodbye to her daughter.

    In “like the colour, when the spring is born”,Mitchell compares her daughter’s name with the arrival of spring, giving the season human characteristics, as the world appears to turn into a bright and colourful place, that might be associated with hope and strength.
She uses similar Personification, when she sings”like when the northern lights perform”. Northern lights are a beautiful appearance that seem to be  almost magic, when they occur. Comparing her daughter with those, wishing her the freedom of those lights, that move gracefully over the sky, she impresses that she really wants only the best for the child.
“There’ll be crocuses to bring to school tomorrow”, she sings, wishing her daughter a life without worries, so she can focus on those little things in life, like bringing flowers to school, when the time of the year has come.

    Throughout the song, there are many seasonal literary devices that stick out, mostly describing that after the winter, the world gets green an beautiful again, just like life sometimes happens to be. Mitchell makes clear, that she wishes just the best for her baby daughter and thought about her decision seriously. That the song makes a little sleepy is makes sense, in order to be written for a little child and the opportunity to be a lullaby.

Why I choose "conflicts in german rap"?

I listen to almost every kind of music. I get attached to songs very easily and listen to them over and over again, until I get sick of them. Some songs made it through a couple years and I still love them, although there is not that need to listen to them every second of the day any more. But German rap is my thing.I never get sick of it and listen to the same songs until everyone around me gets sick of them. But don't get me wrong. Rap is mostly known as cheap trash that doesn't give anything away than a lot of swears and offenses. But if you dig a little and try to get behind that, you'll find guys who care about rap and make good music. They create a peace of powerful poetry in every single song they write. They rap about every-day life and problems and love and almost everybody can associate with that. My favourites are Prinz Pi who is mostly ironic, Casper who sings a lot about the time when he came over from America as a little child, and Cro who is 19 years old and makes a mix of rap and pop-music.
I chose the Theme "conflicts", because I think that it is found a lot in rap. It might be mostly Love, Money,  the annoyance over the hurried world and criticising the society.
