Royals & Kings [English translation]

[Strophe 1: Daniel Grunenberg]

A house with 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 it wouldn't be worth it without you

[Refrain: 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

[Strophe 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 it wouldn't be worth it without you

[Refrain: 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

[Strophe 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

[Refrain: 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
