Glasperlenspiel
Royals & Kings (English Translation)
[Verse 1: Daniel Grunenberg]
A house with a garden, a new car
On TV I see people who already have everything
I make six crosses, I lose a bet
And I think of all the beautiful things I would like to have
Sometimes at night, I dream of a yacht
I fly far, far away in my own jet
But if I'm being honest, I don't need that
Because all of it wouldn't be worth it without you

[Chorus: Carolin Niemczyk]
I celebrate ourselves as we are
We aren't Royals or Kings
But we are free, we are never alone
Who needs a Rolls-Royce or a palace in Versailles?
We are as we are
We aren't Royals or Kings
Our grandmothers aren't queens, they have to make ends meet
But I think, it's alright, exactly as we are

[Verse 2: Daniel Grunenberg]
You are what matters, we also dance in the rain
Every Ashfield with you is a garden of Eden
All the money in this world is like fog and smoke
It is there and disappears, it doesn't stop us
But if I'm being honest, I don't need that
Because all of it wouldn't be worth it without you

[Chorus: Carolin Niemczyk]
I celebrate ourselves as we are
We aren't Royals or Kings
But we are free, we are never alone
Who needs a Rolls-Royce or a palace in Versailles?
We are as we are
We aren't Royals or Kings
Our grandmothers aren't queens, they have to make ends meet
But I think, it's alright, exactly as we are
Exactly as we are
I celebrate ourselves as we are

[Verse 3: Summer Cem]
Everyone asks where do I want to go
But I celebrate myself as I am
Today the business runs by itself
Even now I'm not rich but I have a million dollar smile
Million dollar smile, still only the sunshine (yeah)
Because even the bank director welcomes me (huh)
Million dollar smile, now on Spotify (yes)
You don't have to be royal to drive a Rolls-Royce
[Chorus: Carolin Niemczyk]
I celebrate ourselves as we are
We aren't Royals or Kings
But we are free, we are never alone
Who needs a Rolls-Royce or a palace in Versailles?
We are as we are
We aren't Royals or Kings
Our grandmothers aren't queens, they have to make ends meet
But I think, it's alright
I celebrate ourselves as we are
Exactly as we are
I celebrate ourselves as we are
Exactly as we are
