Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Kilos auf dem Glastisch
Wo die Karre herkommt wo die Karre herkommt
Wo die Karre herkommt frag nicht
Die Grillz sind am blitzen die
Pimps sind am sippen
Wir haben nichts, doch stapeln Bricks
Die Grillz sind am blitzen die
Wir haben nichts, doch stapeln Bricks
Du bist ein Gauner und ein Betrüger
Ich hol' dich rüber ich hol dich rüber
Alle tanzen crib auf der Tanzfläche
Gib mal Feuer
Wenn ich mir 'ne Ziese anstecke
Ich bin nicht underdressed
Du trägst Warnweste
Ich will kein Gibbet, uh, ich will das Andere
Wieder diese Klunker lawinen fallen runter
Ich fall' in die Massen
Mir helfen nur Pusher begegne dir im Dunkeln
Du siehst aus wie Zucker
Black track, black track
Um mich 'rum nur Luder
Uns gehört die Nacht
Verbrennen die Scheine und kommen
Nicht mehr runter
Denn an meinem Tisch nur Pusher
Uns gehört die Nacht
Verbrennen die Scheine und kommen
Nicht mehr runter
Denn an meinem Tisch nur Pusher
Pusher, Pusher, Pusher, Pusher
Pusher, Pusher, Pusher, pusher
Denn an meinem Tisch nur Pusher
Pusher, Pusher, Pusher, Pusher
Pusher, Pusher, Pusher, pusher
Denn an meinem Tisch nur Pusher
Ich bin ein Gauner und ein Betrüger
Ich hol dich rüber
Verdammt ich hol dich rüber pusher, Pusher
Nasenflügel brennen weil du Pep ziehst
Reiner Stoff nur für die Bande

Guck weil die Pakete gehen rum wie Taxi, Taxi

Konfrontier' sie mit dem Stress nicht
Mach mich auf zum Silo schaue auf die Kilos
Aus dem Trikot pass gut auf Amigo
Exklusiv, weil wir nicht
An Tankstellen feiern
Und ich merke wie die Bitch
Auf meine Banknoten geiert
Legen stahlharte und gibt's

Mache alles ready
Triff mich heute in der Tiefgarage
Ja, Herr Officer, ich weiß
Dass sie mich auf dem Kieker haben
Alle wollen kaufen
Weil wir Stoff aus Costa Rica haben
Uns gehört die Nacht

The lyrics of "Pusher" by Vira Lata depict a gritty and vivid portrayal of a criminal underworld, focusing on the activities of drug pushers and the dangerous lifestyle they lead. The opening lines set the scene with references to holding onto a glass tightly, kilos on the table, and the mysterious origins of a car, creating an aura of secrecy and illicit dealings. The repetition of "Die Grillz sind am blitzen" and "Pimps sind am sippen" reinforces the image of flashy accessories and shady characters engaged in illegal activities, while also highlighting the sense of defiance and rebellion in the face of societal norms.
The lyrics delve deeper into the criminal mindset, with the singer identifying themselves as a "Gauner und ein Betrüger" - a rogue and a deceiver. They express a sense of confidence and bravado in their actions, declaring their willingness to confront and overcome any obstacles in their path. The reference to meeting "Pusher" in the dark suggests a clandestine meeting with fellow criminals, where deals are struck and alliances forged under the cover of night. The imagery of falling into crowds and seeking solace in the company of pushers hints at a sense of alienation and a desire for belonging within this dangerous world.
As the song progresses, the chorus reinforces the theme of dominance and control, with the repeated refrain "Uns gehört die Nacht" emphasizing the ownership of the night by these pushers. The act of burning money and refusing to come down from their high underscores the reckless and hedonistic lifestyle they lead, where material wealth and power reign supreme. The exclusive nature of their gatherings, with only pushers allowed at their table, further reinforces the sense of camaraderie and loyalty within this criminal fraternity.
The final verses of the song delve deeper into the mechanics of drug dealing, with references to snorting cocaine, high-quality merchandise, and the competitive nature of the trade. The singer portrays themselves as a savvy operator, navigating through a world of danger and deceit with skill and cunning. The imagery of packages circulating like taxis and the allure of exotic substances from Costa Rica add layers of intrigue and danger to the narrative, painting a vivid picture of a criminal enterprise operating under the radar of law enforcement. Overall, "Pusher" by Vira Lata offers a glimpse into a shadowy world where crime, power, and danger intersect, and where the characters navigate a treacherous path in pursuit of their own version of success.
