Colonia English translation
von Timeless feat. Eko Fresh

Welcome to Chicago on the Rhine
The Dom - the first thing you see when you reach the train station
Get out, I'll wait at the platform
First to Ehrenfeld; Venloer street
I live in the skyscraper with the highest suicide rate
At the police station, where every camera is bugged
In the Kebapland you give the best Adana in the country
In Ossendorf I was at the Gymi up until the eighth grade
Until I had to decide whether to listen to Pac or Biggie
Down to junior high, yeah, Montessori high
First joints at the Rochus church - here comes the police
It was fine up to here, a bit of stone and lip bleeding
Fuck a little until the rings call you at the weekend
Between party punks and artificial sluts
But fuck - I love it, get drunk at Zülpicher Platz
We are the center of North Rhine-Westphalia, Kings on the Westside
Cologne - don't give a damn whether it's on the left or the right
In Colonia!


Here in the shadow of the cathedral
Man, our lifestyle is hustle and flow'n
Because this is my city
Here in Colonia!
Brother, the rats are loose
You want to see something, spend a night in Cologne
Only one night
Here in Colonia!
Get out of the hood and make a million
Brother, I have a vision
Because we are one city
Here in Colonia!
These streets don't let go
We lead a life here in the shadow of the cathedral
This is my city
Here in Colonia!

Ek is the pure king here
Screw your dialect, we don't speak son of a bitch here
I'll make it difficult for you at the Ring, today at the Benz
There are more rascals here who listen to Brings than German rap fans
One grill if I want another one
Digga chill, in Kalk doesn't work your From Eigelstein to Claudwig-Platz
Let's smoke so much that the ozone layer bursts
One fetches here daily from the Middle East seller
The city with the most disgusting train station in Germany
No longer had an account; Took my bank away from me
Today X-6, VIP, entrance at Lanxess
Reality, she has spoken
This is where mayors get stabbed
Turk stays in jail for weeks, let's hope
Cologne will always remain a city for dreamers
Because we're all there
Wed Kole!


Here in the shadow of the cathedral

[?] lives in the house where I live again today
I didn't understand anything then, I only knew Italian at the time
Then I lived in Braunsfeld, then in Ossendorf
Heard my first rap and then I grabbed a block and a microphone
On the outer canal road
The first brides on the oral phase
The first herbal schnapps and weed flag
Mama has come, rented a house in Junkersdorf
My recording sessions were reason enough to fly out there
A hundred chicks banged, I show the garden and fireplace
And my own floor - suddenly they were in love
Then lived in Bocklemünd, directly at the center of Görling
Off the Beverly Hills, back to the troubled spotlight
After that in Rodenkirchen, then back to 823
To the boys, to the haze, to the liquor, to the white
My home - I am from Cologne as long as I live
Because this floor stands above everything, how majestic

Here in the shadow of the cathedral
Man, our lifestyle is hustle and flow'n
Because this is my city
Here in Colonia!
Brother, the rats are loose
You want to see something, spend a night in Cologne
Only one night
Here in Colonia!
Get out of the hood and make a million
Brother, I have a vision
Because we are one city
Here in Colonia!
These streets don't let go
We lead a life here in the shadow of the cathedral
This is my city
Here in Colonia!
