Lyrics Élément air Keny Arkana

Élément air


La même tristesse à chaque endroit
Écartelée par les frontières, blessée sous un drapeau
Petite flamme dans les yeux, nerfs de braise, feu sous la peau
Temps des révélations, la vérité s'verra bientôt
Même la tristesse a ses raisons sista, on s'reverra là-haut
Sans ton aide personne ne sait c'que serait devenu cette jeune accro
Maître en art de rebondir à force que toute chose parte à l'eau
Fermée face à ceux qui résument la vie aux néons d'un labo
Et même détruit par le monde, nul ne peut dresser le dragon
Dis-leur on reste imprévisible car la plaie est ancestrale
Passagère d'une planète dont le cri retentit dans l'espace
Pas venue sur Terre pour une carrière, tant pis si j'pète pas dans les charts
J'peux plus regarder en arrière sans m'effondrer tellement j'ai mal
Tu sais j'ai survécu au bûcher, des croix, du feu, des poignards
Mystique fille de Belissena, hérétique comme les cathares
Dites à l'inquisiteur que c'est l'heure pour lui de faire ses bagages
Parce que qui vit par l'épée périra sous une lune écarlate
Inch'Allah que la roue, tourne tourne vite
L'équilibre qu'on normalise ressemble à la tour de Pise
Normal qu'un jour on serre, à trop prendre sur soi les jours de crise
Mon frère reste vrai pour le meilleur et pour le pire
On choisit d'mourir ou de vivre à chaque seconde qui passe, en vrai
De pleurer ou de rire quand le monstre grimace, hombre
Vivre c'est prendre le risque d'oser l'sommet ou le vide
A trop zoner on coule vite, faut pas flipper des virages grand V
Persécutés mais libres comme les chamanes et les druides
Par ceux qui n'connaissent pas la force qu'il faut pour s'élever des ruines
Comprends ce qu'on délivre, des douleurs et des rimes
Des plaidoyers terribles aux couleurs de ce qu'ont gravé nos rétines
Bien sûr qu'ont est nés libres et égaux mais devant Dieu et sûrement pas en droit
Société comment voudrais-tu qu'on croit en toi ?
Exclus, pointés du doigt, depuis qu'on a appris à voir
On voit la même tristesse à chaque endroit, au paradis de l'argent-roi

La même tristesse à chaque endroit au paradis de l'argent-roi
La même tristesse à chaque endroit au paradis de l'argent-roi
La même tristesse à chaque endroit au paradis de l'argent-roi
La même tristesse à chaque endroit

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
