What's standing in your way? Say, why do you stay standing when things are moving forward?

Why do you only want to take the next step in life tomorrow?

What is it that is holding you back? What, what you think

The moment you repress that desire for more?

Is it fear? Just say it, I know it all too well

Fear and people belong together, just like a pensioner and his hat

And you're angry because you're not where you want to be

You find that the shortest match becomes a symbol

But you know what, none of that has any relevance

You have the heart of a lion, the calmness of an elephant

Then go and do what you can, use your strength

The world is big, the good Lord made it just for you hmm!

When the wind always blows in your face and doesn't change

Then you know you're on the right path, you're on the right path

And when life often brings you to tears and you stand still

Then you know you're on the right path, you're on the right path

You are on the right way

And when you fall, you get up, even if you don't believe it

You know this: Rome wasn't built in a day

Don't let everything around you ruin your hope

Who cares about your bad certificate, a migrant background?

It's about you, who you are and what you do

What you are capable of, how much grit you have in you

And if it feels good, go for it, even if it's not usual

A dream is something beautiful, a vision is something more beautiful

And if the rest of the world just keeps hiding

Are you building something that you will later leave to your children

Because the winner laughs last, use your strength

The world is big, the good Lord made it just for you

When the wind always blows in your face and doesn't change

Then you know you're on the right path, you're on the right path

And when life often brings you to tears and you stand still

Then you know you're on the right path, you're on the right path

You are on the right way

And even if the road is still long, bumpy and rocky

And everyone thinks what you're trying to do is embarrassing

Let them talk quietly, as long as none of them can break you down

First they make fun of you, later they are jealous

And want a piece of your money and success, because

You are now living the life you wanted

Smile at her and then use this phrase

"The world is big, the good Lord made it just for you"

When the wind always blows in your face and doesn't change

Then you know you're on the right path, you're on the right path

And when life often brings you to tears and you stand still

Then you know you're on the right path, you're on the right path

You are on the right way

Sinnbild — symbol / emblem

Sinnbild translates to "symbol" or "emblem". It's a more formal and evocative word than the common "Symbol", suggesting a deeper, more profound representation.

In the song, the artist uses it to describe how the shortest matchstick becomes a "Sinnbild" (symbol) for feeling insignificant or unlucky. This powerful imagery makes the word stand out and adds a layer of poetic depth to the lyrics.

Ever feel like you're stuck, afraid to take the next step towards your dreams? Pillath and Manuellsen's "Auf Dem Richtigen Weg," which means "On the Right Path," is a powerful anthem for anyone who needs a push forward. The song asks you directly: What's stopping you? It understands that fear is a normal part of being human, but it encourages you to look inside and find your inner strength, describing it as having the "heart of a lion" and the "calmness of an elephant." It’s a call to action to use your power and seize the world that was made for you.

The core message is a surprising and inspiring one: facing challenges is a sign you're doing something right. When the wind is always blowing in your face or when life brings you to tears, the song says "you know you are on the right path." It reminds you that great things take time, just like "Rome wasn't built in a day," and that your background or past mistakes don't define you. What truly matters is your grit and what you do. So, even if others doubt you or make fun of your journey, keep going. According to the song, their ridicule will eventually turn into envy when they see you living the life they wish they had.
