J’essaye de refaire ma vie ailleursI’m trying to rebuild my life somewhere else.
J’comprends pas c’qui m’arrive d’ailleursI don’t understand what’s happening to me, by the way.
Comme toi, j’viens d’ailleursLike you, I come from somewhere else.
J’pense à maman, j’pense à cette vida locaI think about mama, I think about this crazy life.
Pour là-haut, j’ai déjà pris mon ticketFor the world above, I’ve already got my ticket.
Leurs bouches crachent et tirent comme des Toka’Their mouths spit and shoot like they’re weapons.
Et moi, j’continue de chanter comme un criquet, criquetAnd me, I just keep singing like a cricket, cricket.
Faire du sale, c’est devenu mon métierDoing what it takes has become my job.
Qualité avant quantitéQuality before quantity.
C’est bien de le vouloir mais faut appliquerIt’s good to want it, but you have to apply it.
Oh, vibrer, vibrerOh, to make them feel it, feel it.
J’fais d’la ‘sique qui fait vibrerI make music that makes you feel something.
C’est la seule à qui j’peux m’livrerShe’s the only one I can open up to.
Avec elle, j’me sens plus libreWith her, I feel more free.
J’suis solide, j’continue ma route, j’continue ma vieI’m solid, I stay on my path, I continue with my life.
Quand je vois que le public chante, j’avoue, j’suis raviWhen I see the crowd singing, I admit, I’m thrilled.
Parti de rien, j’suis devenu le prince de la villeStarted from nothing, I’ve become the prince of the city.
C’est que du vice, donc j’évite, j’attends pas que tu m’invites, bah ouais, bah ouaisIt’s all just wickedness, so I avoid it, I don’t wait for your invitation, yeah, yeah.
J’reste solide même dans les temps dursI stay strong even in the hard times.
J’reste solide malgré la tentationI stay strong despite the temptation.
Dieu seul sait tout c’que j’endureGod only knows everything I endure.
