I grew up, I still don't want to leave the neighborhood
I don't want to leave, no, no, I don't want to leave

Don't act like you don't know me, I've been here since Paranoia
You hated me for nothing, I liked you, don't tell me "brother"
2017 I'm not rusty, I'm still here, my jersey wet
I'm here but I know if I sink they will all shout "hallelujah"
I've always managed even if happiness has screwed me over
Don't worry I see everything and even when they want to sweet talk me
Too many brothers locked up, don't play with the street
In the cell you're bad and Mama's stomach is knotted
If you leave in the car, she shed tears
Back to the neighborhood I was preparing the parachute and the phone and weapons
My room was empty without my brother it was weird
I didn't like being alone so we were always several
I had other buddies who were robbing with plans here and there
They served time on grandpa they just got out there
I remember no one tested me there was trouble we were full
We put two euros each to be able to put a quarter of a tank
One summer it was fire there was all the neighborhood in La Ciotat
And don't look sideways if the buddy leaves we will all jump
Everyone knew me with the Twingo, I was doing crazy freestyles
The whole neighborhood in my room, on the mic we insulted the police station
"Hey so blood, tell me how are you?
You were always with us you went to jail I haven't seen you since
Come on the neighborhood is alive again even if it's not like before
But there are still as many cops who commando us on the slope
Yeah they never investigated me, what do you want it's life
You have to make your way to build your future"

I grew up, I still don't want to leave the neighborhood
I don't want to leave, no, no, I don't want to leave
I grew up, I still don't want to leave the neighborhood
I don't want to leave, no, no, I don't want to leave

Go ahead and smile, it wasn't intended that we'd double up
Right off the bat, you're making up stories, you saw yourself overtaking me
The Honda gang of crazies, we're going to bring out the armada
Ask Tchyco, Azzedine, the two Wassims, Mehdi and Amada
I crossed paths with Norey in the city, he was in the same mess as me
And when Mama wasn't well, I'd see Gilou's mother
In front of the school every morning, it was a fight with my brother
And I wanted to play FIFA, he wanted GTA, we didn't agree
I was into sports, I went to football, then I started the fuf'
It's with the people from the neighborhood that I did my first feats
My first hit and runs, dirty team in the headphones
I was listening to music from Marseille, there were only killers
I didn't have a studio, I rode a Vespa up to Trets
I don't forget the brothers from there and the group LAS13
I represent the cambuteurs like Pif' and Houss'
We scratch at the building, ask Chekib we needed dough
We don't forget the full-time at the coal, ask Lakhdar
You tell yourself you have to make bread when you don't have any, and you're hungry
And shout out to KTS, we overtake by the emergency lane
Yeah, yeah son, it's cool to profit at roulette
It's tough what we live through, ask Fabio
It's with him that I grew up in the barrio
We suffered, we suffered, ask Gilou
A thought for his father, I don't forget, I don't forget
And this one's for Baby Boy, we turned around metro La Rose
We did TB in class until they kicked me out of school

I grew up and I still don't want to leave the neighborhood
I don't want to leave, no, no, I don't want to leave

We have the demon of alcohol, yeah, ask Tidi
That's how it is in the neighborhood, anyway it was written
And ask Mouss, life is hard, you need dough
To have new shoes, we like good laughs, Planète Rap, and concerts
We stay strong despite the low blows, ask Moubzer'
I'm in my room recording, we want to, blow up the house
If we have to get up in the morning to work we'll go ask Tarek

This song I wanted to make, before my eyes close
This song I wanted to make, before my eyes close
Before my eyes close, before my eyes close
Before my eyes close, before my eyes close
