01 border, what border?
I'm a child - of mother earth
i don't care - 'bout the land of my birth
i can go - whereever i want
and so can you - and everyone
look at the sky – infinity
and in the same way i'm feelin' free
your manmade boundaries – don't bother me
watch the horizon – there's no frontier to see
border?
What border?
I don't care
Nation?
Scandalization!
i hereby declare:
that i don't care ( i don't care)
oh i don't care ( i don't care)
free like a bird
always and everywhere
no i don't care ( i don't care)
i don't care (i don't care)
fuck your fences
here and everywhere

no christian country

02 no christian country
just because there's a so called christian party
and yeah, they teach religion in school
and you can visit a church once or twice a year
for christmas, a white wedding or a decent funeral
this is no christian country
no christian country!
a christian country would mean to help the poor
social justice, there's enough for all
no war, no military, blessed are the meak
noone's oppressed, and everybody's free
but in fact there won't be ever such thing
cause christianity is 'bout christ within
it's spiritual, it is in your heart
there's no connection between the state and god

03 worship industry
i went to a punkfestival
they offered delicious pizza
for a donation
so the poor could have some too
so many good bands
give their stuff away for free
as stream or even download
but not you
worship industry
no, you stream three songs out of ten
and you want even more cash than the rest
such a good running business
making money is what you do best
why keep it simple?
so it would seem like a basic thing
that everyone can join in
that everyone can understand
„no, let's make a science out of it
a big blown up corporation
with lots of stuff to buy
to show ones dedication“
and you're not playin services
you're playin „concerts“
and include all the rockstar clichee
crowd participation nonsense
worship industry
worship company
worship enterprise
it's time to let it die
do it like keith green
give good stuff away for free
yeah keith was advanced indeed
knew god would care for his needs

06 jesus was a refugee
Jesus was a refugee
in the land of egypt
Jesus was a refugee
in the land of egypt
his parents were refugees
in the land of egypt
and “This is what the Lord Almighty said: (Sacharia/zechariah 7, 8)
Administer true justice; show mercy and compassion to one another.
Do not oppress the widow or the fatherless, the foreigner or the poor.
Do not plot evil against each other.
Do not plot evil against each other.
Do not plot evil against each other.’
love your neighbour as yourself (Matthäus/Matthew 22, 39)

your racist god

|

07 your racist god
You claim to be the superior because you're white
you think that you've god on your side
which god you're talkin about? the one from the holy word?
the christ who came from the middle east and looked like an arab?
the one who was jewish and spoke of love and peace?
who talked to the samaritans though they were the enemies?
who treated romans with respect the same as the zelot terrorists?
who only got angry when it came to religious fanatics?
tell me
about your racist god
cause it can't be
the one i'm talkin' of
don't you dare to abuse christ for your filth

leave them alone
01:29
|
|||
08 leave them alone
since forever
you persecuted them
as if you got
no other problems
instead of caring
bout your own ways
you were real eager
to preach to dykes and gays
leave the gays
leave the gays
leave the gays alone
leave the dykes...
leave the dykes...
leave the dykes alone
it's not your business
it's not your job
to judge and to be unkind
so you better stop
christ said: „love your neighbor
as you love yourself“
i can't see them doin' wrong
so you better save yourself from hell

Rabbi rabbi
heal my soul
my twisted heart
so full of hell
of evil thoughts
wicked schemes
oh give me back
your jesus dreams
the holy ones
the good and pure
the view of light
that shall endure
with eyes peered on
you, christ alone
looking straight forward
to your throne
rabbi rabbi

10 Flucht
Die kleine Familie
kommt nur schwer voran
der Junge ist ein Säugling
sie müssen ihn tragen
doch dann ist es geschafft
die Grenze hinter ihnen
nach all den Strapazen
das Ziel das sie verdienen
da wo sie herkamen
lauerten Todesgefahren
und schon von Anfang an
wollte sie niemand haben
sie war schwanger doch man sagte:
„Die Wohnungen sind knapp -
es gibt noch nen Container
am Rande der Stadt!“
und jetzt atmen sie auf
endlich haben sie Ruhe
da sagt der Herr vom Amt
„wir könn'n nix für sie tun.
Sie müssen wieder geh'n -
zurück in ihr Land.
Der Bus steht vor der Tür.
Der Flug geht dann um acht“
und Maria schaut zu Josef
und die Augen werden nass
"Sag mir was wir tun sollen
ich habe einfach keine Kraft!"
und Josef schaut Maria an
und sagt: "Ich weiss es nicht..."
fängt zu zittern an und Tränen
laufen ihm über's Gesicht
alle Hoffnung lag darauf
dem Grauen zu entkommen
doch statt freundlichen Worten
haben sie nur Kälte bekommen
„So sind nun mal die Regeln,
die Gesetze dieses Staats.
Es tut uns leid doch wir schieben sie
und mitsamt ihrem Kind ab!“
Matthäus 2, 13
Als die Sterndeuter abgereist waren, erschien Josef im Traum ein Engel des Herrn und sagte: »Steh auf, nimm das Kind und seine Mutter und flieh nach Ägypten! Bleib dort, bis ich dir neue Anweisungen gebe8. Denn Herodes wird das Kind suchen lassen, weil er es umbringen will.«
14 Da stand Josef mitten in der Nacht auf und machte sich mit dem Kind und dessen Mutter auf den Weg nach Ägypten.

it wasn't god

11 it wasn't god
god provided this earth
with enough for all to eat
so if people starve
it wasn't god
it was us
and god said: „thou shall not kill“
and „blessed be the meak“
so if there's murder and war
it wasn't god
it was us
it wasn't god
it wasn't god
it wasn't god
it wasn't god
it's your choice
you got a free will
to let live
or to kill
it's your choice
your mind's awake
to give
or to take

14 i call on you
I call on you when i don't feel anything at all
i seek your face when i feel like i'm goin' to fall
i run to you when the clouds clothe themselves in black
i need your help when my life seems to be painted black
in times of darkness
i need your light
when i can't see anything at all
you'll be my guide
but not only in desperation
also in great times
i will always depend on you
and that's alright
glory to god through our lord for eternity
