Translation of FAVELA from French to English
I make dirty money in the eyes of God
But it's worse in the eyes of my own state
In my life I've never been able to reconcile the two
So either I do it well or I don't do it at all
As I inhale the smoke, it starts again
I stay up late at night, in my head I don't know what to think
I love her character, her insolence
She looks at me in the eyes, suddenly, I can't speak anymore
Come on, let's go to Bériz, I'm in a Merco, it's bombing on the ring road
I only live for the madness, I live like in a series
I only live for the madness, I live like in a Netflix series
I go all the way even if sometimes I want to take the exit
I have to remind myself that I exist, I have to remind myself that I exist
I'm already far but I still fill up
I don't even know what I put in my heart anymore
And it's often a guy like you who does it to you
You'll be betrayed by a friend
I was there when the block was burning
I was there when the others weren't
And if I left it's because I had to
If I left it's because I had to
Han, han, han, han
This time, I ended up alone
Accompanied by my bitterness
I'm thinking about how I can
Han, han, han, han
It's the problems on the phone
I have a few projects on the ground
I'm wondering how I can
Without you (without you)
I'm stuck in a trap and I can't get out (I can't get out)
Without you, I'm stuck in a blocked lélé
I'm invited to the party but I arrive late
And well, our names are on the list but you know
And outside it's dark like in the hallway
And there are many who burn their wings
I'm not waiting for a sign, I'm waiting at six meters
But they don't want me to shine the others
They don't know what I'm going through my brother, one day it's okay, one day it's too much
The days repeat themselves as Autumn says, you sleep when you have to get up early (you have to get up, yeah)
It's hot like in the favela (hot like in the favela)
Me, I don't live for the cameras
I'm with my wandering wolves
Since the New Era, I need more every month (every month)
I'm already far but I still fill up
I don't even know what I put in my heart anymore
And it's often a guy like you who does it to you
You'll be betrayed by a friend
I was there when the block was burning
I was there when the others weren't
And if I left it's because I had to
If I left it's because I had to
Han, han, han, han
This time, I ended up alone
Accompanied by my bitterness
I'm thinking about how I can
Han, han, han, han
It's the problems on the phone
I have a few projects on the ground
I'm wondering how I can
Without you (without you)
I'm stuck in a trap and I can't get out (I can't get out)
Without you, I'm stuck in a blocked lélé
I'm invited to the party but I arrive late
And well, our names are on the list but you know
On the list, yeah you know
Our names on the list, yeah you know
