You front like a dealer but you're stuck on parlay bets, I bet
Since I'm around, your Thursday's saved
Your one chick's at the slots, two are snorting coke in the restroom
And I'm scanning the crowd for Jette
No matter how much I'd want it, nobody's got it like me
Nobody vibes like me, shut the f*ck up, I'm lit
I miss your face
I still crash at Mom's, she says, "Son, I never see you"
My heart's pumping, but my soul's frozen
If I skip a line for a day, the Abiat seeps from my pores
Somewhere out there we lost each other
This sh*t breaks you, this sh*t shaped me
Bro, who's King Kong? My face stays stone
I'm shanking anyone who crosses my path
Run far when my other self shows up with scissors
We don't like drugs, but we live off 'em
My big bros move tons
Between life and death and "Who's the Don here?"
Make sure he leaves with cash
No, actually I mean: make sure he shows up with cash
Nobody's seen so many blocks, yet they talk about it
Lucky's the sheriff, but Lacazette's Megatron
It goes
Those were seventy shots from the G-Wagon
Pocket knife, pepper spray, Glock 17, butterfly
I'll chop your head off with a katana, I'm a samurai
Being smart is dangerous, dangerous ain't smart
I stab into the masses, stab out of the masses
At thirteen I started figuring life out
Life blasted me, now it's starting to lick me
The cops and I play hide-and-seek in the yard
'Cause my youngins are flipping their twenties
He does it to eat, I’m like, "Keep the seventy"
We’re filthy, but we still have golden spots somewhere
You forgot your bros at the first mil
With the Smith & Wesson I lounge like a patron on the chair
Bro, I only run with the best of the best
And your ex dances to "Gucci Gang, Gucci Gang"
I only move half and whole Ronnys outta Holiwan
I do it for the Rolls-Royce Cullinan
Pocket knife, pepper spray, Glock 17, butterfly
I'll chop your head off with a katana, I'm a samurai
Being smart is dangerous, dangerous ain't smart
I stab into the masses, stab out of the masses
Pocket knife, pepper spray, Glock 17, butterfly
I'll chop your head off with a katana, I'm a samurai
Being smart is dangerous, dangerous ain't smart
I stab into the masses, stab out of the masses

Megatron — Megatron

Megatron is a direct reference to the iconic leader of the Decepticons from the Transformers franchise. It's an unexpected and engaging word to find in German rap lyrics.

In the song, the artist uses "Megatron" to assert dominance and power, stating, "Lucky ist Sheriff, aber Lacazette ist Megatron." This line implies that while others might have some authority (like a sheriff), the artist, Lacazette, is on a whole different level of power and influence, akin to the formidable Megatron. It's a clever pop culture reference that adds a layer of boastful confidence.

Get ready for a wild ride with LACAZETTE's "LID"! This track throws you right into a gritty street narrative, where the artist is caught between the harsh realities of his environment and a longing for something more. He talks about people faking it, saying, "Du machst auf Ticker, doch hast Kombis auf, ich wette" [You act like a dealer, but you're in debt, I bet], and then shifts to a more personal note, missing someone's face: "Ich vermisse dein Gesicht" [I miss your face].

LACAZETTE doesn't shy away from the darker side of life, describing a world where drug use is common: "Deine Eine hängt am Automat, zwei ziehen Koks auf der Toilette" [Your girl is at the slot machine, two are snorting coke in the toilet]. He contrasts this with his own resilience, stating, "Euch macht dieser Scheiß kaputt, mich hat dieser Scheiß geformt" [This shit destroys you, this shit shaped me]. It's a powerful look at survival, loyalty, and the constant struggle for dominance, all wrapped up in a high-energy, no-holds-barred delivery. He even throws in some intense imagery, like "Hack' deinen Kopf ab mit Katana, ich bin Samurai" [Chop off your head with a Katana, I am Samurai], showing a readiness to defend his place.
