The song 'Angeklagt' by
Bonez MC is about the difficulties that the fast and restless life of a rapper can have on their personal relationships. In the song, the rapper talks about the accusations and reproaches he receives from his partner. These are mainly due to him constantly being on the road and not having time for her ('And because once again I don't have time for you').
He understands her feelings and knows that he is the cause of her sadness ('Yeah, I know, it's all my fault'). He shows understanding when she leaves ('I can fully understand if you leave, yeah') and even advises her that it would be better to end the relationship ('Do yourself a favor and move on').
The song also contains an apology to his partner for not being the partner she deserves ('Sorry that you love me'). He is aware that his lifestyle and decisions can have negative effects on her ('I've only contaminated you, you smoke weed because of me').
Despite acknowledging the problems and apologizing, the rapper shows a certain resignation towards his situation and the possibility of change, by saying: 'Because no one has managed to change me'. He accepts his mistakes and weaknesses, but shows no willingness or hope for change.
Overall, 'Angeklagt' shows the conflicts and tensions that can arise in the life of a successful rapper between their career and personal relationships.
