Transcription
00:03From the murderous neighborhoods
00:05Where the all-too-frequent murderer
00:08Life, you see, and its consequences
00:09I tell the story of the guts of the ghetto
00:11These shady atmospheres
00:12They fire the shotgun
00:13Everyone goes back to bed
00:14Not a thug who lasts long
00:16You've been warned
00:17You've barely opened your eyes
00:18That you are being held
00:19Death or prison
00:21You have the cause and outcome
00:21History repeats itself
00:22And you think you're the most vicious one
00:24You want to climb by any means necessary
00:26So you're a subject
00:27No legal proceedings
00:29The road to the lookout, man
00:30The cops too
00:31You may have already sold
00:32A barrette for a vile one
00:34Between the bills of exchange and the balances
00:35You're balancing as if on a tightrope
00:36Your career may end
00:38On the very edge of a balance
00:39The mistrust of evil is not its table
00:41Your number of blows replaces
00:42The one from your mobile phone
00:43Now you know what goes on behind the scenes.
00:46The prison and its hardcore world
00:48You have to take responsibility.
00:49Even if its atmosphere suffocates you
00:51The judge is lighting you up
00:52And make your eyebrow concrete.
00:54Weakened despite your steely resolve
00:56You wish you could be proud of their bar association.
00:58Now that words become ink
01:00You realize that there are few people for whom you matter.
01:03Few letters and even fewer money orders
01:05What do you believe in to survive?
01:07But not to exist
01:08Your mother has nothing left but her eyes to cry with.
01:10His heart aches while his son is incarcerated.
01:12And shaken by her painful convictions
01:15She failed, she was lacking in your education
01:17And as soon as you left, it started all over again.
01:20Then you left again, as soon as you got out
01:22The younger generation looks up to you as a role model.
01:24They're counting on you to account for the money.
01:27That suits you, since you've got the cops on your back.
01:29You don't zip up the kids, you put them on the field
01:32You want for them what you wouldn't want for your son
01:34And your morality doesn't apply to your vice.
01:37Questioning yourself is out of the question for you.
01:39You don't care about the world, the cops, or their questions.
01:41You're still wary of smiles, even.
01:43You know that in prison many people would like to see you for a laugh
01:46To see you die after making you run
01:48To achieve this, they would even be willing to feed you
01:51Where enemies and friends become indistinguishable
01:54Can you say who will come to grieve over your fate?
01:56People like you, therefore you're profitable.
01:58You're well-known, but not very approachable.
02:01You're crazy, because the life you lead is choking you
02:03You're going crazy, you know the law, you boom-ang
02:06You're waiting for the one who doesn't knock but enters
02:08Desire weighs you down, yet you live in fear.
02:11No wonder, it's not just the cops you've got on your back
02:13Can you count the number of hairs that would want to abound?
02:15You've seen your enemies, you're incapable of separating them from your friends
02:18Because in fact, you don't have friends, just associates
02:20You're surrounded by people and rarely alone
02:23But surprisingly, how lonely you feel
02:25Your story is sad, but unfortunately you're not
02:27Nor the last one that money will lead to his coffin
02:30Because in this environment you quickly make people jealous.
02:32Guys who see you standing up and would like to bring you to your knees
02:35So it's unlikely you'll have a happy ending
02:37You can count the days while waiting for a bullet to pierce you
02:41Admit it, the neighborhood got you.
02:42And that just like inside, outside you are like your outfit
02:44You're not even sure you can ensure offspring.
02:47You can't take it anymore
02:47At night, you no longer sleep
02:49You think about the friends you've lost.
02:51You would never have believed that life on the road would be so reduced
02:54It's moving
02:54You're getting bogged down in quicksand.
02:56And you make it sink in with every movement
02:58You like a woman who loves, who likes peace and quiet
03:01But doesn't want to get involved in stories of shit and Camus
03:04Because here you are, stuck between two
03:06You've been warned, there's no thug who'll light a fire
03:09If you have kids, what do you want to teach them?
03:11How to gain respect, to become the leader of the gang?
03:14Will you tell them that to become a millionaire
03:16You don't need a diploma, and your dad is running from a gangster.
03:19How many young people are on this road with two cars?
03:21That's how many guys live where I come from.
03:23How many of them will not reach their thirties?
03:26Instead of one or two years, we take about twenty years
03:29Where the condemned are crowned
03:30They call going back on their decision being bloated.
03:33But you've been warned, there's no thug who'll light a fire
03:35You'll get killed as soon as you step out onto your fire.
03:38You've been warned, there's no thug who'll light a fire
03:40You'll get killed as soon as you step out onto your fire.
03:44Death or prison, in other words, four walls or four planks.
03:47You've been warned, there's no thug who'll light a fire
03:50You've been warned, the street only tries other ways out
03:53Death or prison, in other words, four walls or four planks.
03:57You've been warned, there's no thug who'll light a fire
04:00You'll get killed as soon as you step out onto your fire.
04:03Death or prison, in other words
04:06Four walls or four planks, you're planned
04:07Not a single thug gets through without fire
04:09You're planned
04:10Like you
