Translation of Comme Avant from French to English
You know there's nothing funny about making the guts talk
It's cutthroat like being a guarantor
I took a step back, I raised the prices (yeah)
Old man, we have to move forward by sinking the debris
My mother, I heard her, rarely listened to her
I'm disgusted, bro, I see my grandmother getting old
Losing the glow she had when I was riding the merry-go-round
May God lighten her burden
There will always be a bit of my father in my songs (oh)
I feel like I've never digested
I feel like I'm never going to live happily
I've never enjoyed my successes
Always a bone, even when we live beautiful things
Always a bone, it seems like I deserve it
Always at full speed because life is short
Always a pain, it seems like I've aged
And I live my records like diseases
Reward me if I have the virtues
Leave me if I have disappointed you
And talk to me about what I never knew
Let them talk about situations they haven't lived
Weapons they haven't held and people they've never seen
If necessary, I take the left, I take the motorcycle out of the box
I burn it at the relay point and I will have sabotaged everything
The kind of gift that is in me and they will salute the talent
When I'm in a box
Oh, mom
I made you sad and I did nothing cautiously (mom)
All we wanted was to move forward (before)
Times change and nothing will be the same as before, oh mom
(Oh-ah-ah) oh, mom
I made you sad and I did nothing cautiously (ah-ah-ah)
All we wanted was to move forward (ah-ah-ah)
Times change and nothing will be the same as before, oh mom
Often, I think about Chef Diss locked up in his jail
Always the same damn end written on the scenario
I miss the barrio when I'm far from it
But I'm going to die where the last clowns die
I consumed her smile and I drank her tears
Twenty-eight brooms, always on my guard
I end up finding my way each time I get lost
Or each time I've had enough, yeah
And what am I going to say? (Me)
That I'll be faithful to you until paradise?
And what am I going to say, me?
That life is beautiful to a bald child in pediatrics?
You want me harm, what have I done to you, me?
I spend my life being straight and no one is infallible
I made my mistakes, work, family
What the state took from me, I would have already changed my life
I'm afraid of lacking pedagogy
And of lacking honesty, in both cases, it's screwed
Look where I am
You have your life ahead of you, screw it, boy
I look at your grave like my twenties
And I no longer learn anything from the wise
The years pass like moments
And I sell these rhymes like a soap (soap)
Oh, mom
I made you sad and I did nothing cautiously (mom)
All we wanted was to move forward (before)
Times change and nothing will be the same as before, oh mom
(Oh-ah-ah) oh, mom
I made you sad and I did nothing cautiously (ah-ah-ah)
All we wanted was to move forward (ah-ah-ah)
Times change and nothing will be the same as before, oh mom (oh-ah-ah)
