Alors par quoi commencer ?
Nous sommes le 7 en avril,
J'ai 17 ans, cher SINIK,
!je t'écris cette lettre en Afrique,
Mon prénom c'est Daryl,
Je rêve de rap, de Paris
Mon travail consiste à mettre de l'essence dans des barils !
Ca fait drôle de te parler,
De ma vie je suis géné,
Mais je dois ramener de quoi manger,
Dans ma famille je suis l'aîné !
Comment ne pas te dire que j'ai si peur de me cramer ;
J'ai ton album et sois honnête: est-ce grave si je l'ai gravé ?
Moi je rap et j'aimerais tant que tu m'apprennes les bons conseils,
Comme tous les jeunes de Libreville
J'attends la date de ton concert !
Ici, c'est différent, c'est pas gratuit quand c'est les femmes,
Assimiles tu que pour te voir il faut 6000 francs CFA ?
Ta réussite me donne envie, d'être une star, d'être en place, de
marcher,
Rendez vous pris sur la grande place du marché ;
Voilà je t'ai raconté ce que jai toujours du mal à dire,
Et puis pourquoi je t'écris cette lettre? C'est même pas toi qui vas lalire...
Nous sommes le 30 fin avril,
Aux Ulis, près de Paris,
Il est bientôt 23h00,
Comment vas-tu cher Daryl ?
J'espère que tout va bien,
Que tes projets tiennent debout,
Que le travail c'est pas trop dur,
Que tes époles tiennent le coup...
J'ai bien recu ta lettre,
Le récit de ton périple,
J'en ai déduit que ton courage,
N'avait d'égal que ton mérite !!
6000 c'est trop cher, surtout quand t'as rien dans les poches,
Mais t'inquiète pas je te ferai rentrer
tu pourras squatter dans les loges ! Daryl
Toi qui pensais que j'étais peut-être un beau parleur,
Mais c'est bien moi qui t'écris ça,
Ce n'est pas un mec de chez Warner !!!
Les distances qui nous séparent
Se sont écourtées dans ma tête ;
Mais bien sûr que j'aimerais bien pouvoir écouter ta maquette !!
Daryl, moi la musique, elle a délimité ma vie,
Quand j'arriverai dans ton pays
Tu nous feras visiter la ville ok ?
En attendant je te déconseille de lâcher,
Rendez-vous pris devant la scène sur la grande placé du marché...
Nous sommes le 12 au mois d'août,
Retour au taf en baskets,
Hier encore tu étais là,
J'avais mon badge en Back Stage !
Je me suis isolé là-haut,
J'ai vu frissonner ma peau,
Ca m'a fait rigoler à mort
Le coup des pistolets à eau !!!
J'ai kiffé quand ca kickait,
Quand le dj faisait des scratches,
Ici la vie a repris vite, ils ont déjà enlevé l'estrade,
Toujours fou de rap français,
Un jou je m'envolerai là-bas,
Ca m'a donné envie d'y croire,
J'espère te renvoyer la balle ;
Pourtant mon père m'a dit: "Ici la chance ne nourrit pas
Ecrire du rap et des chansons ça nourrit pas, ne l'oublie pas"
J'y crois même si, des fois, je pète un plomb, je te l'avoue,
La nuit je rêve de mon concert, de faire un plongeon dans la foule ;
Timide, j'ai l'impression d'être sur le fil du rasoir,
Je travaille dur, voilà pourquoi mon écriture pue le gasoil,
SINIK ne m'oublie pas parce que le temps bousille les coeurs,
Et n'oublie pas que dans mon cas ta musique adoucit mes pleurs...
A l'heure qu'il est je suis en tournée,
Je t'écris ces mots dans la voiture,
Tu pensais peut-être que je t'oublierai
Mais ça c'est pas dans ma nature.
Dans la caisse c'est pas facile,
M'en veux pas pour les ratures,
Sinon Daryl ça fait un bail,
Depuis tout ce temps comment vas-tu ?
