(This is a banger)(This is a banger)
Han-han-hanHan-han-han,
Yeah-eh-ehYeah-eh-eh,
Mes Noushis, mes DjorssairsMy street brothers, my fellow hustlers.
YeahYeah,
Je salue tous mes éléments, mes Noushis, mes DjorssairsI greet all my crew, my street brothers, my fellow hustlers.
S’il vous plait, dites à la loi de me foutre la paixPlease, tell the law to leave me in peace.
J’ai trop de mal dans mon cœur, moi je veux trouver la paixI have too much pain in my heart, I just want to find peace.
Le soir-là, je suis dans mood, donc je prends plus les appelsThat night, I was in my zone, so I stopped taking calls.
Faut sortir chercher lahan, c’est ça on dit garçonYou have to go out and chase the money, that’s what makes you a real man.
Tu peux me prendre comme ton fils, mais ça dépend de la façonYou can treat me like your son, but it depends on how you do it.
Je salue Adjamé et puis Abobo ohI shout out Adjamé and then Abobo, oh.
Je salue les cités et puis le ghetto ohI shout out the estates and then the ghetto, oh.
Ils vont nous bognan, hummm (trra)They are going to respect us, hummm (trra).
Ils vont nous bognan, hummmThey are going to respect us, hummm.
Ils vont nous bognan, hummm (trra)They are going to respect us, hummm (trra).
Ils vont nous bognan, hummmThey are going to respect us, hummm.
Faut sortir chercher lahan, c’est ça on dit garçonYou have to go out and chase the money, that’s what makes you a real man.
Faut sortir chercher lahan (stra, stra)You have to go out and chase the money (stra, stra).
Ta plus grosse peine sera de compter sur les gensYour greatest pain will come from relying on others.
Les plus gentils, tu vas les trouver plus méchantsThe nicest ones, you’ll find them to be the most vicious.
Ma famille a besoin de billetsMy family needs cash.
Et pour ça, j’dois sortir et grouillerAnd for that, I have to go out and hustle.
Mon bébé veut porter VersaceMy baby wants to wear Versace.
Dont rajoute un djaii sur mon cachetSo add a little extra money to my fee.
Je salue Adjamé et puis abobo ohI shout out Adjamé and then Abobo, oh.
Je salue les cités et puis le ghetto ohI shout out the estates and then the ghetto, oh.
Ils vont nous bognan, hummmThey are going to respect us, hummm.
Faut sortir chercher lahan, c’est ça on dit garçonYou have to go out and chase the money, that’s what makes you a real man.
Faut sortir chercher lahanYou have to go out and chase the money.
