Weitergrinden is a compound word combining the German weiter (further/on) and the English slang term grinden (to grind). It means to keep working hard, to hustle, or to persist in one's efforts.
In the context of the song, the artist uses this word to express their determination to continue working hard and striving for success, emphasizing a relentless pursuit of their goals. It's an interesting blend of German and English slang, reflecting modern youth culture and ambition.
What's the secret? In "Geheimnis 2," which translates to "Secret 2," Sevi Rin and t-low pull you into their world of hustle, loyalty, and confusion. The song's hook constantly asks if you can keep a secret, followed by questions about identity and direction: Are you young or old? Are you on the right path or the wrong one? The artists themselves seem unsure, admitting they don't even remember what happened yesterday, painting a picture of a fast-paced, disorienting lifestyle.
The secret they eventually share is all about their journey. They rap about staying true to themselves and their old friends, leaving fake people and old ways behind. They reflect on their rise from the bottom ("War mal am Boden so wie 'ne Matratze" / "Was once on the floor like a mattress") to their current success, filled with real watches, money, and the loyalty of their crew. It's a song about grinding for a better life, never looking back, and holding onto the people who were there from the start.
