More spiritual than scientific
More literary than mathematical
It's not at school that I learned to live
I identified myself, but not in books

More spiritual than scientific
More literary than mathematical
It's not at school that I learned to live
I identified myself, but not in books

More than a year that I've been alone
Abandoned like a social case
I've read a lot of books that didn't talk about us
Yeah, understand, that I need rap
But there are too many jealous people
They don't work like me, don't sacrifice like me
Don't love it like me, would want money like me
Seriously, I don't understand

I quickly understood the value of work
Knowing how to get up despite broken dreams
Not to end up on the straw
And as I write this, I have tears in my eyes
I think of my loved ones who give all their time
To live decently, fill their bag and do it legally

What we tell in the songs we love the field
The bi-bi is rarely real life
At 20 maybe you have the world at your feet
At 25 it's already crushing you
Either you complain and find excuses
Either you accept your fate, you do twice as much
We have few examples that are highlighted
And when they are they sell their souls to the devil

We don't recognize ourselves anymore, they call them sellouts
Behind the dead end, there might be an avenue
There is the boulevard of projects
Stars to unhook
I think back to Diaby, to the postal sorting
To the night shift when we were young
Little study, overwhelmed parents
Until morning on the PlayStation

Immoral life, depression, wake up at 4pm
Isolated, I hear the sound of tears
Running down my mother's cheeks
And what a horror, why so much violence around me?
Guys who drown, girls who fight against stronger than her
I have scars from it
Because when I was younger maybe I let it happen
Things I didn't validate like hitting a weak one
All for a phone
And go home as if nothing had happened
Where I lived we weren't stupid
But it was better if you weren't gay
Because despite our education, we could have teased you
And if I did it today, I regret it

More spiritual than scientific
More literary than mathematical
It's not at school that I learned to live
I identified myself, but not in books

I've been hearing this bullshit for too long
Dick contests
Alcohol, drugs and sex, the same life as Bukowski
But without the talent, it works much less
We don't believe in ourselves and no one does
If you turn the other cheek you end up on a cross
So we are violent, violent in our words
Violent in our actions, violence in our eyes
You don't get into the club, wrong color or wrong outfit
It's not our codes and I'm very disappointed

That we all need signs of belonging
Whether it's your shirt, your pair of Shark
A religious symbol, it's none of our business
I don't care where you come from, the face, it's within
The trap is that above, they divide us all
They don't calculate us, we're not there when they vote their laws
Just we suffer them and we acquiesce
So shut up and empty the cash register
I could have said that, but I was saved
Thank you dad, thank you mom, thank you to my brother even if I'm taller
Not often disappointed, I give little trust
But when I am, it hurts a lot
My circle closes surrounded by the real ones
No guy without principle, nor superstar

Na-na-na-na
Yeah, no guy without principle, nor superstar, eh

More spiritual than scientific
More literary than mathematical
It's not at school that I learned to live
I identified myself, but not in books

More spiritual than scientific
More literary than mathematical
It's not at school that I learned to live
I identified myself, but not in books
