Lyrics translation:
I'm a world champion in repressing
Anything that scares me, anything stressful, I put on mute
I'm a world champion in loving
Firstly myself, then at the stage and the street
The hardest is to give it to someone close
I'm a world champion in not being
In not solving your problems
Even the pictures on the walls
I wasn't the one who hanged them
I'm only in charge of the melodies
I'm a world champion in falling
And getting back up like a champ
You'll see, like a phoenix
I'm burning, but choosing every day to live on
I'm a world champion in wanting
At least trying
You'll see, how in the end
After the losses, the victory is so much sweeter
I'm a world champion
I'm a world champion in justifying
Weaknesses and desires
The urge is an old acquaintance
I know every old trick it keeps in its bag
But look, someday I'll be righteous
Deep down what I have is not enough, at all
I'm a little rat and life is a pipe1
Falling down the hole because I can't distinguish
Between good and evil, and where does it all lead to
You're being all usual
But soon we'll run out of fuse
I'm a world champion in falling
And getting back up like a champ
You'll see, like a phoenix
I'm burning, but choosing every day to live on
I'm a world champion in wanting
At least trying
You'll see, how in the end
After the losses, the victory is so much sweeter
I'm a world champion
I'm a world champion in compensating
Apologizing and pleasing
Sinning, cleansing myself
Exposing, covering up
Say, how can one write songs with a thousand expectations
Millions of views
I'm a world champion in falling
And getting back up like a champ
You'll see, like a phoenix
I'm burning, but choosing every day to live on
I'm a world champion
