Mu-murder by strangulation, murder by strangulation
Mu-murder by strangulation, murder by strangulation

Vous fiez pas aux apparences, les plus dangereux sont tous petits
Don't trust appearances, the most dangerous ones are the smallest
J'ai vu des monstres avec des corps de filles
I've seen monsters with the bodies of girls
Comment être sûr d'entrer au Paradis
How can you be sure of entering Paradise
Quand on sait qu'Iblis faisait partie des gens bénis
When you know that Iblis was among the blessed
Explique-moi pourquoi je flippe d'aller chez la famille
Explain to me why I freak out about visiting family
Effectivement, la belle-daronne peut m'mettre du poison dans mon riz
Indeed, the beautiful mother can put poison in my rice
Ou me slasher dans mon lit, tout en m'souhaitant bon anniv'
Or slash me in my bed while wishing me happy birthday
J'veux mourir un vendredi, à Médine ou à Taïf
I want to die on a Friday, in Medina or in Taif
Fais, fais, fais-moi voir le colis, fais-moi voir le colis
Do, do, do show me the package, do show me the package
Pas confiance en ta justice, mon avocat ai commis d'office
No trust in your justice, my lawyer was appointed for me
Y avait des traces de sang sur le lit
There were traces of blood on the bed
Les petits ne parlent que de biff'
The little ones only talk about cash
Reportages sur la sère-mi s'regardent sur plasma HDMI
Documentaries about the street are watched on HDMI plasma
Ne m'fais pas gole-ri, ne m'fais pas gole-ri
Don't make me laugh, don't make me laugh
Mieux vaut faire profil bas lorsque l'État envoie ses gorilles
It's better to keep a low profile when the State sends its goons
J'suis comme Hallyday face au fisc, Hallyday face au fisc
I'm like Hallyday against the taxman, Hallyday against the taxman
Ton destin est sombre mon fils, car être un noir en France c'est horrible
Your destiny is dark, my son, because being black in France is terrible
C'est un style de vie à haut risque, va falloir bosser comme un autiste
It's a high-risk lifestyle, you'll have to work like an autistic
Les petits ont troqué la biologie pour devenir O.G., triple O.G
The kids traded biology to become O.G., triple O.G.
Faute, mets ta tête au sol, penalty (pénalty)

Parle pas d'toucher des millions à ceux qui touchent le fond
Don't talk about touching millions to those who are hitting rock bottom
Ceux qui touchent le fond sont souvent ceux qui poussent le plus la fonte

Des idées, mais pas les fonds, à qui la faute?
Ideas, but not the funds, whose fault is it?

I don't want to sleep on my back, the Devil's perched on the ceiling
Des idées mais sans budget, j'suis béni, ça m'inquiète
Got ideas but no budget, I'm blessed, it worries me
Pendant qu'les employés d'chez Disney s'mangent le pénis à Mickey
While the employees at Disney are getting eaten out by Mickey
J'me suis dit "Ça sent l'roussi" ma barbe, ils veulent raser
I said to myself, 'Something smells burnt' my beard, they want to shave it
Pourtant les filles de ces racistes me demandent mon 06
Yet the girls of these racists ask me for my number
L'objectif n'a pas changé, petit récapitulatif
The goal hasn't changed, a little recap
Vivre et mourir entre amis, vivre et mourir en qamis
Living and dying among friends, living and dying in a qamis
Car Paname est magique, moi, j'suis illogique
Because Paris is magical, me, I'm illogical
J'fonce-dé des portes alors que j'ai le Vigik, je suis l'homme à abattre
I crash through doors while I have the Vigik, I'm the man to take down

You have some catching up to do, I'm not daddy's boy
Boom, shakalaka nigga, hey mama na ngáí
Boom, shakalaka nigga, hey mama na ngáí
J'crois qu'il commence à cailler, stylo bic bleu, noir, rah rah sur le cahier
I think it's starting to get cold, blue bic pen, black, rah rah on the notebook
J'kicke, appelle-moi "La Machine"

J'ai vu des bleds où y a pas d'eau, mais y a le McDo
