Crier à l’aide n’est pas mon rôle, trop fier pour frapper aux portes
Mes potes 13 dans un hall, j’galère à l’aéroport
Au bord du gouffre, trop fier pour demander du secours
Cet album c’est à chaque frère sur le chemin du retour
C’est pas un vol que je détourne mais un code que je découvre
Je t’informe que j’ai des doutes et à force je me dédouble
Double culture, double parcours, double résultat
A force d’être chez moi partout peut-être je suis chez moi nulle part
De quoi tu parles la misère peut nous rendre influençable
Mais les voyages m’ont appris que la France n’est pas une fin en soi
Et je me soigne en écrivant des lignes à contre temps
Ca interpelle la douane c’est plus des rimes c’est de la contrebande
Je compte défendre mon mic mitrailleur
Défendre les tirailleurs et puis je rentre ou je vais vivre ailleurs
Car y’a cette question que je n’cesse de me ressasser
Qu’est-ce qui me retient encore vraiment en France à part le rap Français ?
Influencé par le hip hop et ses disciples
Une époque qui se dissipe et même mes potes sont pas d’ici
Ma musique de NYC est à 182d
J’me sent encore à Roissy car j’me suis jamais intégré
Parce que, on m’a dit : « La France tu l’aimes ou tu la quittes »
J’répondrai à cette offense quand vous nous rendrez l’Afrique
J’répète, on m’a dit : « La France tu l’aimes ou tu la quittes »
J’répondrai à cette offense quand vous nous rendrez l’Afrique
