“Meine Zeit” (My Time) is Cro’s laid-back victory lap. Over a sunny beat he tells us: right now is all that matters. The German rapper lists the cool sneakers, nineties vibes and Supreme caps he loves, but he keeps repeating that he is relaxed, plan-free and simply writing rhymes. Instead of chasing luxury cars or a beach villa, he enjoys the ride, trusts his talent and lets the music carry him around the world.
The chorus – “Meine Zeit ist jetzt” – is an invitation to the listener. Cro celebrates success without stress, fame without ego and style without beef. The song feels like opening the windows on a summer day: lean back, breathe in the beat and remember that the best moment to live, create and have fun is right now.
