Back to the Future

Ghetto youth walks alone
Because outside, big guy, trust is dead
Speak kindly, we've seen others in our buildings
I'm not going to judge you for prejudices
Even if I have no feelings
You were biking on Sundays
I was learning about weapons and their handling
Only real soldiers
No thug suckers in my damn regiment
Don't calculate the people who lie
Who make rumors, who feed them
You'll only succeed by working hard, you won't get anywhere by showing off
We don't fight life by getting depressed
Don't talk about love to my kids from the concrete
Bluff, I learned it at my expense, I learned my detriment
I grew up in reprimand
I'm not in the mood to party
No need to call me to celebrate the new year
I was the only little guy who stayed in the projects
When all the others went to Disneyland

Rom-pom-pomp-om
Why act like a thug?
The street makes widows
Rom-pom-pomp-om
Faced with trials, the youths do what they can

We declare our flame to France
It's the fire of love in the Molotov cocktail
A determined ghetto youth
Neither the state, nor fear, nor the haters stop him
Don't expect an ovation, without titles in rotation
I'm number 1 on the Top
Brain well screwed on, I watch them rise
I watch them fall like leaves in Autumn
Difficult times, from the street to the Din
May God forgive us the feeling of being cursed when the haram is booming
Sins by the ton and the Satan applauds,
I've seen mothers cry, lose their speech and die slowly
Because their son is too crazy, too impetuous
And to think that before they were great footballers
Today on the field they all want to shoot
Dip their noses in dubious affairs, but there's no choice
Well yeah my faith, here life is too expensive
Armed to the teeth we leave the city
Just in case jealousy, envy want to take our lives
It would make these big suckers too happy
I know all these haters would be delighted

Ghetto youth walks alone yeah
Because outside, big guy, trust is dead
Speak kindly
We've seen others in our buildings, yeah yeah
