Lyrics
I cannot go to marabou because I'm afraid of God I cannot go the the therapist because I'm from the hood I've got many stupid principles that I've got to respect When they ask me why ? I answer "that's the way we do it in the hood" A little bit innocent, a little bit guilty Every police control brings me closer to my featuring with Tupac In my dreams, a lot of demons and crop circles For sure I won't do anything, I stay solid, like coffins I would love to tell you that I'm all yours That I love you and that everything will be new But all of Africa knows that no man stays faithful for life I'm getting crazy, I see happy people everywhere Either way love is not meant for me, or I am not made for love I come from a continent and a country that bleeds When violence is not enough to resolve conflict, we use black magic We are who we are with We attract what we have in common If you're surrounded by motherf**kers, that means you're one of them too Before, I wanted to change Now, I accept who I am I paint to kill time like Salvador Dali I've lost myself, it's undeniable I'm from Cameroon, a family name from there and a slave name My memories hurt, thinking hurts, I think of all the flaws, all the money badly spent Before, I thought that I prayed but then I grew up and I understood that all I did was reciting sentences that I had learnt by heart My style is bipolar My pen is crying I'm old enough to think, I want respect I don't want to please people anymore At our age, the road is still long And I lie like a cop when I say that I am outraged, that's bad Even a broken heart can give love Like a broken clock gives the right time, 2 times a day I fell from the truck or the ship, we make dying easy When we make our lives complicated but happiness finds itself it the simple things The mood is down, yeah I close my eyes and look around with my ears I need to talk to someone but I'm way too proud to admit it For how long have we been fleeing ? For how long have we been running ? For how long have we been lying ? For how long have we been suffering ? Head in the clouds, I see the stars calming me On the roof of a building, you and I, trapped in a spider web We do what grown up people do when they're naked Forgetting that most of the kids are unwanted Maybe he'll have your eyes Maybe he'll have my looks Maybe he'll have my voice, he'll have your nose But we'll never know because we'll give him back to the sky He travels without a visa That's ironic but there is nothing like family in the family plan Few truths and so many lies And now I'm whispering because I don't want God to hear me I talk more about God than I talk to Him I came alone but we'll leave together I'm so resentful, I'm, I'm, I'm so resentful I forgave those who hurt me when I saw that those whom I hurt forgave me I go to work in my car, I cry Chardonnais, stop whining I'm afraid of the final judgement but I'm living my life Don't ever talk to me like I'm still the Dinos from Imany Inanimate corpses, the Human lacks humanity Even God makes nobody unanimous Wide nostrils, France is afraid of me even though I'm the nice guy in the hood Leaving the door open is even worse than slamming it But happiness finds its way in simple things (happiness is in simple things) Everyday I sin and bring myself even lower I believe in God but I'm not sure that He still believes in me I say "He" but maybe it's a woman Maybe it's a wave Maybe it's a soul (So many things to say but I don't know who to say them to Sometimes I'd like to leave but it's forbidden) I wonder who makes laws Just remembered, it's those who don't respect them I remember concussions as a way to go The more I get older, the more trouble I have dealing with my emotions Life scares me like a Desert Eagle, like death, like an Algerian person screaming They gave me less but promised way more So I came back to spit fire like I'm Prometheus I think about what we were when I look at the stars Happiness doesn't come your way, it comes from you Slow down a little, you're driving way too fast I remembered when I prayed for everything that I've got today Simple things, Happiness is in simple things, yeah Why am I loosing myself ? Why am I getting down ? What does the small minds do when the big minds meet ? Simple things, happiness is in simple things If everything would go wrong, I'd stop praying Because if God gave me everything I wanted, I would use it the wrong way Simple things, Amen
