u nid würklech da? wüu abwäsend bisch
säg kennsch das o? bisch irgendwo
nur nid da bir sach? wüu d? nöimen angersch bisch

niemer weiss genau? wie dass es witer geit
mir bewegen üs? aui nur irgendwo im all innen ume
mir schwäbe frei u niemer weiss - weiss wieso im all innen ume

The lyrics in Florian Ast's song Im All in paint a picture of individuals being physically present but emotionally absent from the situation at hand. It talks about people who are just "somewhere" but not really there, being called cowards by others because they lack commitment to their own lives. The song then shifts to exploring the idea of power and control, stating that no one really knows how things will turn out before taking life-changing decisions.
The theme of the song is about the struggle to find meaning and purpose. The lyrics suggest that people are floating in space, not really sure where they are going or what they want. The verse "It sounds fatal, but it's normal / mankind is and will remain brutal / Coal is power, and power is God / Is that really what everyone wants?" reflects the hopelessness people feel about their own existence.
In conclusion, Florian Ast's Im All in is a song that reflects on the difficult journey of finding meaning in life. The lyrics speak about the emotional distance that people experience, the debate about control and power, and a general sense of not knowing where one's own life is headed.
