Viens faire un tour dans ce qu'on appelle le ghetto
D'la pisse dans l'ascenseur, si tu daignes quitter ta Merco
On a l'humeur foncée, j'vois des mecs foncer
Dans la nuit, pourchassés par des Peugeot bleu foncé
Là-bas le taux de chômage n'est pas truqué je vois
Tellement de gens qui ne font rien juste en bas de chez toi
J'peux même te donner des chiffres au pif :
1664, 33, pastis et 8.6
Les hautes autorités ont vite constaté
Que dans la cité il n'y avait plus d'autorité
Les caïds paniquent, les femmes flics flippent
Ici les droites te permettent de faire des triples flips
Des gens s'battent à coups de battes, cassent de bus
Les sauvageons deviennent sauvages et en veulent toujours plus
Certains disparaissent, stressent à Fleury
D'autres businessent avec le diable et vite leur tombe est fleurie
Échec scolaire des caïds de la Pègre
Des loups contre des zèbres, demande à Claude Allègre
Les profs sont pour rien dans tout ça
Il faudrait qu'on les écoute, certains veulent juste du sparadrap
Sans facétie, c'est prophétie, apocalypse
Dans la cité de la bête j'habite au 6.6.6
KO c'est l'chaos, le K.O.S.O.V.O
La BO en VO d'un fléau, dégâts collatéraux
Refrain : C'est pour les quartiers chic comme pour les quartiers choc
Les blocs, car nous vivons l'époque dégâts collatéraux
L'homme laisse l'homme en détresse, SDF dans l'zef
Tout pour le bénef, rien pour l'UNICEF
En bref, il connaît pas nos tables de ping-pong
Nos murs lézardés Art Déco tendance Viêt-cong
Violence gratuite, coup de pression pour une pression
Et si tu hausses le ton, après l'oppression vient la répression
Honnêtement tu risques de partir bêtement pour un vêtement
Instantanément et ce sans testament
Alors on tease "sky, porto, vodka, Suze, Baileys, gin fizz, fusent
Donnent force et science infuse"
Je vois tellement de vices que les fils du fisc m'appellent le disca
Peace à mista Issa quand il dit ça fissa fissa
Les autres sont comme des arbres, on est là pour les scier
3ème millier sans vaciller, sortir l'acier
Ensuite on braque un type avec un P38 à huit
On prend la fuite on s'cuite et ça ainsi de suite
Parfois j'repense au temps où on bouffait des Pipasol
Au premier do ré mi fa sol aux collectes d'Action École
Aux Rubixcubes, Pataugas, Space invaders,
Montre calculatrice, betamax, les jeux d'20 heures,
Boule magique, basket Creeks, Treets, V2000
Mais pour nous, l'an 2000 n'est qu'une autre année bissextile,
La nôtre ! Et s'il y a naufrage on prie pas l'apôtre.
Dans l'?il on n'a pas de poutre, Yo on nage vers la côte
Refrain
3ème millénaire à la recherche d'un idéal
Le cash est l'bienvenu et ça même si le sac est sale
Il change la pisse en eau pure, la pollution en air pur
Le béton en Côte d'Azur et l'eau de chez toi en saumure
J'ai vu des rastas utopistes, extrémistes hard core
Se délecter des pieds tirés d'un corps de porc mort
Matérialistes, on s'pousse tous pour du flouze
Cours dire à ta mère que c'est le retour du blues
Même sans Rizoli on sait qu'la vie est une loterie
Rarement elle te sourit, souvent elle te trahit
Et ça suffit pour que les gens fassent des amalgames,
Parlent de notre réalité comme une compilation de drames
Un peu comme si ici on ne faisait que souffrir
Pire que depuis des décennies y'avait pas eu un sourire
Sais-tu qu'ici qu'un gros salaire est le SMIC
On peut même pas se payer une mort tragique sur le Titanic.
Refrain
