Shindy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And this time is blindin' me
It's all that I see
I tell you it's all that I need
I'm livin' in a lie
It lift me up higher to new heights
I won't fight, no no no not this time
I am you
When you me put me back on silent ground I will shout it out
Oh your name
When you are things are possible
I see the world in a brand new light
Aston Martin vor dem Haus, nenn' es Aston Villa
Ich bin Fashionkiller
Rote Lederjacke, Michael Jackson, Thriller
Michael Jackson, Thriller
Michael Jackson, Thriller
Rote Lederjacke, nenn' mich Michael Jackson
An Shindys Haut lass' ich keine Billigware
Kinderzimmer gleicht 'ner Footlocker-Filiale
Ah, ich bestelle online auch ins Sofitel
Deutsche Rapper wollen bei mir lutschen, nenn' mich Lorielle
Ich fick' den Expressversand, jeden Tag weckt mich die DHL
Meine Bitch hat Geburtstag, ich schenk ihr Zanottis mit Zebrafell
Ich stapel die Schuhkartons so wie mein Geld auf der Bank an der Schweiz
Verprasse mein Schwarzgeld für Mode und Sneaker
Und führe es so am Finanzamt vorbei, ah
Deutsche Mietwagen, amerikanische Kreditkarten
Italienische Textilwaren
Jeder Motherfucker weiß, Kleider machen Leute
Guck, wie ich ein Lamm für meine Bikerjacke häute
Aston Martin vor dem Haus, nenn' es Aston Villa
Ich bin Fashionkiller
Rote Lederjacke, Michael Jackson, Thriller
Michael Jackson, Thriller
Michael Jackson, Thriller
Rote Lederjacke, nenn' mich Michael Jackson
Ich würd' dich killen für paar Yeezy Red October
Die passen zu der Jacke auf dem Michael-Jackson-Poster
Pigalle Paris, Street Fashion, AMG G-Klasse, G Wagon
Schwarze College-Lederjacke wie ein Football-Teamcaptain
Ich fick' den Expressversand, jeden Tag weckt mich die UPS
Pariser Versace-Store hab' ich gespeichert in Google Maps
Sage der Bitch, sei mal leise und kümmer' dich um meine Genitalien
Sie fragt, wo wollen wir beide denn heute zum shoppen hingehen, Italien
Also auf nach Mailand und Florenz
Baby, meine Kaufkraft steigert die Potenz
Jeder Motherfucker weiß, Kleider machen Leute
Guck, wie ich ein Lamm für 'ne Designertasche häute
Aston Martin vor dem Haus, nenn' es Aston Villa
Ich bin Fashionkiller
Rote Lederjacke, Michael Jackson, Thriller
Michael Jackson, Thriller
Michael Jackson, Thriller
Rote Lederjacke, nenn' mich Michael Jackson
The lyrics to Shindy's song, "Thriller," speak to the rapper's obsession with fashion and lifestyle, seen through the lens of Michael Jackson's famous music video. The first verse reveals the singer's intoxication with the sun and all that it represents, even if it's a lie. He finds himself lifted to new heights but isn't willing to fight against it. The chorus references Michael Jackson's "Thriller" video and the singer's own style, with an Aston Martin parked outside of his house, and a red leather jacket that pays homage to the King of Pop. The second verse describes Shindy's high-end tastes in shoes, clothes, and luxury cars, and how he flaunts his lifestyle while staying under the radar of the taxman.
Overall, "Thriller" is a celebration of wealth, success, and living life on one's own terms. There's a sense of bravado and swagger, as Shindy boasts about his designer clothing and expensive accessories. But there's also a hint of danger in the lyrics, as the singer seems willing to do whatever it takes to maintain his lavish lifestyle, even if it means hurting others.
