Lejos


J'peux pas oublier qu'j'arrive de loin
Plus loin encore que nos virées
Personne n'aurait parié qu'j'arrive vivante à ma majorité
J'ai survécu au cachot, à vos drogues, à votre autorité
J'm'en sors pas trop brisée, paix à tous ceux qui nous ont quittés
J'ai l'mal de vivre, le coeur coincé dans l'passé
J'parle à mes absents en larmes, les souvenirs entassés
Une lame plantée dans l'abcès
Faut qu'j'trouve la paix avant d'clamser
Pieds nus, j'cours sur des brasiers
Ma plume défie vos gratte-ciels
J'connais l'instinct de sacrifice
Fuck tous vos artifices
S'voiler la face, c'est pas du pacifisme
Chaque guerre est fratricide
Activiste, le monde est glauque
Wesh vas-y atterris
Tout l'monde veut acquérir
(?) moi je n'pense qu'à guérir
J'me casse en pleine nature, appelle-moi Artémis
Insupportable comme un chemtrail, comme un chien de paille
Mon âme est triste
J'manie l'éclair, car de la foudre j'ai la maîtrise
La vie est brève, ma rime est claire, y'a zéro place pour ta traitrise

Llegamos de tan lejos
En todos sentidos, tan lejos
En silencio llevamos una fuerza
Tan lejos, cada uno tiene la carga de su camino
Llegamos de tan lejos
En todos sentidos, tan lejos
En silencio llevamos una fuerza
Tan lejos, cada uno tiene la carga de su camino

Même si l'eau a coulé sous les ponts
Ou qu'les ponts soient passés à l'eau
J'garde mon lien personnel avec dedans et avec là-haut
Gosses des ruelles, citoyenne du monde je casse les barreaux
Fille spirituelle del su commandante Galeano
Corazón zapatista
En vivo del barrio
Epoca salida de la pinche poca del diablo
Humanos todos hermanos
Ni maestro, ni esclavo
Cantando la luz en las ruinas de un mundo quemado, lejos
De lo que extraño j'déstabilise les scénarios
Imprévisible comme la vie, choquée de la bêtise des fachos
Ma plume a touché en plein cœur
Sans les télés, ni les radios
Insensible à leurs boycotts, à leur système (?)
Cher public, ensemble on a niqué l'industrie
Pas besoin de leurs médias, pour faire vivre la musique
Qui a tué l'rap, noyé au fond d'un jacuzzi
J'ai choisi l'mic et pas l'Uzi pour tirer sur lois abusives

Llegamos de tan lejos
En todos sentidos, tan lejos
En silencio llevamos una fuerza
Tan lejos, cada uno tiene la carga de su camino
Llegamos de tan lejos
En todos sentidos, tan lejos
En silencio llevamos una fuerza
Tan lejos, cada uno tiene la carga de su camino

Ma plume défie vos gratte-ciels
Ma plume défie vos gratte-ciels
Ma plume défie vos gratte-ciels
Ma plume défie vos gratte-ciels

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
