Damso - Ipséité (Bonus track) (English Translation)
[Intro]
Yeah, hey

[Verse]
I lived through dramas and difficulties, "misogynist", what they said
I talk about women under Melodyne, national anthem : impossible
Ban-ban-bang in the scope, so much hatred for so few euros
Choice of topics but I rap what goes on in my brain, I deliver myself
I'm of those who they insult, barriers that they inflict me
Always the same since my youth, in my veins, blood of winners
I believe in God as long as my punches are knockouts
These sons of bitches won't get out of this so easily
Number 1, imma become it again, I make mula
My payback cold and salted, in their asses, I let myself go
I didn't say anything, I stayed zen, my dad shares his pain with me
Let down with no hesitation, lynched in the news broadcastings
But for the love of the SACEM, I am proof of my selfhood
There aren't anymore stars in the sky tonight, the sound of bullets chatting with each other
There's a matter of death 'cause I have no heart anymore, the flowers have faded, there's no more chrysanthemums
Independent, I take no sick days, on the field like Edinson Cavani
My presence alone is worth an Audemars, I make my dreams and nightmares come true
Truth is a "noir désir" 'cause when it hits, it takes your life
But what is life ? If it's not death that gets us to be alive
It's all of those in which we believe that end up defining us
The lie is a relief that ends up disuniting us
[Chorus]
But, whatever may happen, I'll stay myself (oh yes)
In my joint, a little bit of Camel (always)
The sons of bitches, I don't give a (oh yes)
Beside that, I've made my first million (million)
But I still haven't paid the taxes (nah, nah, nah)
I ask myself how much they'll take from me (take from me)
Would I have enough to live in good conditions ?
Down here, I'm only making mula-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la (mula-la-la-la-la)
Down here, I'm only making mula-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Mama, I've made my first million (million)
But I still haven't paid the taxes (nah, nah, nah)
I ask myself how much they'll take from me (take from me)
Would I have enough to live in good conditions ?
Down here, I'm only making mula-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la (mula-la-la-la-la)
Down there, I'm only making mula-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la

[Outro]
TheVie, if not which life ?
What life if not this one ?
