I'd like to put a bullet in the head of my era
In the head, in the head
Look it straight in the face, this fear that strangles us
The future that chills us, this aftertaste of ash. Look it straight in the face, our century that's collapsing. All these efforts made to die against the clock
Look at them straight in the face, all these bodies that are breaking
All these legs that give up, these shoulders that exhaust
Look at us straight in the face, sleeping at funerals
Damn, we live too fast. Damn, we die too long.
Look where we came from. Look at the mess
Look closely at all our chain failures
Look at the form, never remember the substance
We aimed for the sky
We hit the ceiling
Look straight at the love that's bored. Look at the grace of taking out our trash
Look at our strengths waking up too late
Look straight at the hope that goes to hit the pavement
I look at it and I tremble
Because I know I resemble it
I'd like to put a bullet in the head of my era
In the head, in the head

Look at them straight in the face, our bloody borders
We could build cemeteries at the bottom of the sea
To think that we believe the sea can wash away our crimes
Look at it well, this ultra-modern genocide
Look it straight in the eyes
Look at this country of human rights
Where we prefer, where we prefer
To talk about the veil rather than rape
Flash-ball in hand
We prefer to condemn
Those who stir up shit
Than those who created it
We had to learn to repair better
We had to learn to get up better
We had to learn to talk better
We had to learn
We had to learn
We had to learn to disarm fear
In the end, we just had to get our fingers out of our hearts

Look at it rising, the smell of hatred
In my beloved France, darling FN
Look at Hanouna, Bolloré, Pascal Praud
Damn, what are we waiting for
To flush the toilet

Look at the strong, look at the weak
Look closely at the end of their reign
Why do my friends wake up
All with blood on their dreams
Look at it resonating, this anger that rumbles. I promise I'm not aiming at anyone, I'm shooting at everyone
I look at it and I tremble
Because I know I resemble it
I'd like to put a bullet in the head of my era
I'd like to put a bullet in the head
In the head
