When I found you, you were young, wayward, lost in the cold
– Wéi ech dech fonnt hunn, waart dir jonk, haartnäckeg, verluer an Der Keelt
Pulled up to you in the Jag’, turned your rags into gold
– An Et wéisst een erëm, firwat ee wie wiele soll.
The winding road leads to the chateau
– Déi verdréchent Strooss féiert zum Schlass
“You remind me of a younger me,” I saw potential
– “Dir erënnert mech un e jéngere Selbst”, hunn ech Potenzial gesinn
I’ll be your father figure, I drink that brown liquor
– Ech wäert är Pappefigur sinn, ech drénken dëse bronge Likör
I can make deals with the devil because my dick’s bigger
– Ech ka Geschäfter mam Däiwel Maachen, well mäi Schwanz méi grouss ass
This love is pure profit, just step into my office
– Dës Léift ass reng Gewënn, kommt just a mäi Büro
I dry your tears with my sleeve
– Ech dréchen är Tréinen mat menger Hülse
Leave it with me, I protect the family
– Loosst et bei mir, ech schützen D ‘ Famill
Leave it with me, I protect the family
– Loosst et bei mir, ech schützen D ‘ Famill
I pay the check before it kisses the mahogany grain
– Ech bezuelen de Scheck ier hien De Mahagony kuss
Said, “They wanna see you rise, they don’t want you to reign”
– Gesot: “si wëllen dech gesinn erëmbeliewen, si wëllen net datt dir regéiert.”
I showed you all the tricks of the trade
– Ech hunn iech all Tricks vum Handel gewisen
All I asked for is your loyalty, my dear protégé
– Ech hunn just fir är Loyalitéit gefrot, mäi léiwe Protegé
I’ll be your father figure, I drink that brown liquor
– Ech wäert är Pappefigur sinn, ech drénken dëse bronge Likör
I can make deals with the devil because my dick’s bigger
– Ech ka Geschäfter mam Däiwel Maachen, well mäi Schwanz méi grouss ass
This love is pure profit, just step into my office
– Dës Léift ass reng Gewënn, kommt just a mäi Büro
They’ll know your name in the streets
– Si wëssen ären Numm op Der Strooss
Leave it with me, I protect the family
– Loosst et bei mir, ech schützen D ‘ Famill
I saw a change in you (I saw a change, saw a change in you)
– Ech hunn Eng Verännerung an iech gesinn (ech hunn Eng Ännerung gesinn, eng Verännerung an iech gesinn)
My dear boy
– Mäi léiwe Jong
They don’t make loyalty like they used to (Not like they used to)
– Si maachen Net Méi Loyalitéit wéi fréier (Net wéi fréier)
Your thoughtless ambition sparked the ignition
– Är mindless Ambitioun huet D ‘ Zündung ausgeléist
On foolish decisions, which led to misguided visions
– Iwwer domm Entscheedungen déi falsch Visiounen gefouert hunn
That to fulfill your dreams
– Dat fir är Dreem ze erfëllen
You had to get rid of me
– Dir musst mech entgoen
I protect the family
– Ech schützen D ‘ Famill
I was your father figure, we drank that brown liquor
– Ech war är Pappefigur, mir hunn dëse bronge Likör gedronk
You made a deal with this devil, turns out my dick’s bigger
– Dir hutt en Deal mat dësem Däiwel gemaach, et stellt sech eraus datt mäi Schwanz méi grouss ass
You want a fight? You found it, I got the place surrounded
– Wëllt dir E Kampf? Dir hutt et fonnt, ech hunn D ‘ Plaz ëmginn
You’ll be sleeping with the fishes before you know you’re drowning
– Dir schléift mat De Fësch ier dir wësst datt dir erdrénkt
Whose portrait’s on the mantle? Who covered up your scandals?
– Wiem Portrait ass op De Mantel? Wien huet hir Skandaler ofgedeckt?
Mistake my kindness for weakness and find your card cancelled
– Verwiesselt meng Frëndlechkeet mat Schwächt a fannt är Kaart annuléiert
I was your father figure, you pulled the wrong trigger
– Ech war deng Pappefigur, du hues de falschen Ofzuch gedréckt
This empire belongs to me
– Dëst Räich gehéiert mir
Leave it with me, I protect the family
– Loosst et bei mir, ech schützen D ‘ Famill
Leave it with me, I protect the family
– Loosst et bei mir, ech schützen D ‘ Famill
Leave it with me
– Loosst et bei mir
“You know, you remind me of a younger me”
– “Dir wësst, dir erënnert mech un e jéngere Selbst “
I saw potential
– Ech hunn Potenzial gesinn
