Rennen

CRO's song 'Rennen' delves into the modern-day hustle and the constant chase for experiences, validation, and social media approval. The artist begins by describing a typical hectic day, only to find solace in the comfort of his own bed. This setting serves as a metaphor for the need to disconnect from the external chaos and find inner peace. CRO emphasizes the importance of relaxation and being present, contrasting it with the relentless pursuit of excitement and social validation that many people engage in.

The lyrics highlight the societal pressure to always be on the move, chasing 'Gänsehaut-Momente' (goosebump moments) and the fear of missing out (FOMO). CRO criticizes the superficiality of social media, where moments are captured, posted, and quickly forgotten. He points out that life passes by while people are busy seeking likes and comments, missing out on genuine experiences and connections. The reference to 'It's A Hard Knock Life' playing on the ghettoblaster underscores the harsh reality of this lifestyle.

CRO also touches on the value of meaningful relationships over superficial ones. He prefers having one significant other rather than numerous fleeting encounters. The song reflects on the importance of pausing to appreciate the present moment and the people around us. CRO shares a personal anecdote about neglecting family due to his busy life, urging listeners to prioritize real-life connections over virtual ones. The song is a call to slow down, let go of fears and crises, and rediscover the vibrancy of life through genuine human interactions and mindfulness.
