"Gallo Nero's song 'Wie Pac'" (translated as "Like Pac") is a German hip-hop track that pays homage to the legendary rapper Tupac Shakur, fondly known as Pac. The lyrics depict a reckless lifestyle, with the artist rolling through the night with his collaborator Bonez, driving slowly and listening to Pac's music. The mention of a burning cigarette and a cup with Codeine implies a sense of indulgence and intoxication. The song also touches upon the harsh realities of life, highlighting the presence of friends in jail or buried in graves. The artist sheds tears and pours Hennessy from his glass as he contemplates the fragility of life. There is an underlying theme of mortality and the fleeting nature of existence, with the realization that one day, all the lights will go out. Despite the hardships and experiences the artist has faced, he doesn't need a second chance as he has seen and lived through it all. The lines "left me alone, when I die, keep pumping these songs" suggest a desire for his music and legacy to live on even after his passing. The chorus expresses the artist's hope to die gracefully, like Pac. He encourages others not to be sad but to come and dance at his grave, symbolizing a celebration of his life. Each sip and puff feels like it could be his last day, emphasizing the intensity and uncertainty of his existence. The song also touches upon the artist's feelings of loneliness and fear at night. He describes being alone with his fears and dark thoughts, with demons circling around him. The mention of Lucifer hunting reflects a sense of being chased or pursued by troubles or negative forces. Overall, "Wie Pac" portrays a mix of hedonistic indulgence, reflections on mortality, and the influence and admiration for Tupac Shakur. The artist embraces his own thug persona, recognizing the presence of fear and struggles in life but also celebrating his resilience and musical legacy.
