Wenn die Zeit es zeigt wird man sehen,
When the time reveals it, we will see,
ob wir die richtigen Wege gehen.
if we walk the right paths.
Die Überlebenszeit ist jetzt,
The time for survival is now,
denn die Messer sind gewetzt.
for the knives are sharpened.
Der Schwätzer hat geschwätzt.
The chatterbox has chatted away.
Die Kampagne hat gehetzt.
The campaign has incited.
Die Regeln sind verletzt.
The rules have been broken.
Überlebenszeit ist jetzt!
The time for survival is now!
Kümmer dich um dein Leben
Take care of your life
und dann, kümmer dich um uns!
and then, take care of us!
Die Schäden können wir beheben,
We can fix the damage,
das ist nicht die Kunst.
that's not the art.
Wir müssen was bewegen,
We need to make a move,
sonst bewegt sich nichts.
or nothing will move.
Es geht nicht nur um dein Leben,
It's not just about your life,
sondern ob es ein Leben ist.
but whether it's a life at all.
Mach es dir nicht zu schwer,
Don't make it too hard for yourself,
zu viele Blicke sind schon leer.
too many gazes are already empty.
Wir stellen die Ordnung wieder her,
We restore the order again,
die keine Ordnung ist.
that isn't really an order.
Gib die Sorgen wieder her.
Bring back the worries.
Wenn das in Ordnung ist,
If that's alright,
Dann lebt jeder wieder mehr
Then everyone will live more again
Und alles ordnet sich.
And everything will fall into place.
Hoffnung ist größer als das Meer.
Hope is greater than the sea.
Kümmer dich um dein Leben
Take care of your life
und dann, kümmer dich um uns!
and then, take care of us!
Die Schäden können wir beheben,
We can fix the damages,
das ist nicht die Kunst.
that's not the art.
Wir müssen was bewegen,
We need to make a move,
sonst bewegt sich nichts.
otherwise nothing will move.
Es geht nicht nur um dein Leben,
It's not just about your life,
sondern ob es ein Leben ist.
but whether it's a life at all.
Kümmer dich um dein Leben
Take care of your life
und dann, kümmer dich um uns!
and then, take care of us!
Die Schäden können wir beheben,
We can fix the damages,
das ist nicht die Kunst.
that's not the art.
Wir müssen was bewegen,
We need to make a change,
sonst bewegt sich nichts.
otherwise nothing will move.
Es geht nicht nur um dein Leben,
It's not just about your life,
sondern ob es ein Leben ist.
but whether it is a life.
Can you see the light, do you know the light?
Can you see the light, do you know the light?
When it shines are you one that was blessed with life?
When it shines are you one that was blessed with life?
Do you feel the time or is it in your mind?
Do you feel the time or is it in your mind?
Because my father came to give sight and heal the blind.
Because my father came to give sight and heal the blind.
Come on my people now I know you feel it now.
Come on my people now I know you feel it now.
It's the awakening the chosen will be spiritual.
It's the awakening the chosen will be spiritual.
God bless the child in everyone of us.
God bless the child in everyone of us.
It's the coming of Christ and in God we trust.
It's the coming of Christ and in God we trust.
Cause in the darkness were the demons dwell.
Cause in the darkness were the demons dwell.
In this darkness the devil cast an evil spell.
In this darkness the devil cast an evil spell.
Yea he telling lies watch who you listen to.
Yea he telling lies watch who you listen to.
Watch what you say because you never know who's hearing you.
Watch what you say because you never know who's hearing you.
Can you see the light, do you know the light?
Can you see the light, do you know the light?
Will you recognize him when you stand in front of Christ?
Will you recognize him when you stand in front of Christ?
When he holds your hand, will you go with him?
When he holds your hand, will you go with him?
Chosen are the few who stand strong without trembling.
Chosen are the few who stand strong without trembling.
Kümmer dich um dein Leben
Take care of your life,
Und dann, kümmer dich um uns!
And then, take care of us!
Die Schäden können wir beheben,
The damages we can fix,
das ist nicht die Kunst.
that is not the art.
Wir müssen was bewegen,
We need to make a change,
sonst bewegt sich nichts.
or else nothing will budge.
Es geht nicht nur um dein Leben,
It's not just about your life,
sondern ob es ein Leben ist.
but whether it’s truly a life.
Kümmer dich um dein Leben
Take care of your life
und dann, kümmer dich um uns!
and then, take care of us!
Die Schäden können wir beheben,
The damages we can mend,
das ist nicht die Kunst.
that is not the art.
Wir müssen was bewegen,
We need to make a change,
sonst bewegt sich nichts.
otherwise, nothing moves.
Es geht nicht nur um dein Leben,
It's not just about your life,
sondern ob es ein Leben ist.
but whether it's a life at all.
