Tu ne nous trouveras pas dans les clubs en train de jouer les thugs
Pas de champ ou de shoot on a le micro accroché au cœur
Un bic, un bloc-notes et des métaphores qui génèrent la peur
C'est le grand méchant loup qui se pointe à pattes de velours, pour choquer les sourds
Et on n'en veut pas de leur costume pourri
Celui de MC nous colle à la peau et nous on se nourrit
De ce qu'on vit et ce qu'on dit, c'est qu'on ne voit pas ce qu'ils voudraient qu'on dise
Pour ça beaucoup nous visent et médisent, mais chaque jour on revient briser leurs statistiques
Tu sais d'où l'on vient et ce qu'on fait on ne le fait pas que pour les bifs
Y'a trop de bizz et pour du buzz on ne cherchera pas le bif
Même si le vaisseau un jour se change en frêle esquif
Jamais on piétinera nos gens pour une tranche de rosbif
La mission est la même, même après des heures de télé
Genoux à terre, y'a pas moyen même pour une paire de tétés
Tête froide et sang chaud, hiver comme été
C'est tout ce qui va nous préserver d'un état comateux
Les puristes à deux balles déguisés en survêt' Fila
Les cons qui voient nos lives comme un ralliement de primates
Et ceux qui roulent nos vies dans un foutu sale climat
On va tous les zinguer
Les abrutis pour qui aimer le drapeau c'est se filer
Les génies de la télé avec les sourcils épilés
Et ceux qui marchent sur les autres pour toucher le billet
On va tous les zinguer
Est-ce que tu as déjà failli die, eh, pour une poignée de dollars ?
Est-ce que tes baskets blanches ont zigzagué ente les mollards ?
Nos familles viennent du quart-monde, anus du territoire
Là pour fermer le clapet géant béant de Collard
Ce mic' s'appelle holà ! 8 ball en bakélite
Le dernier sur le tapis, clos la partie, shooter d'élite
Socialise pas avec la poussière de Medellin
N'invente pas mes délits, dans la cave pas de Pyrex, j'y mets des livres
Depuis vingt ans, la culture prend un sacré coup de chaud
Et que tout ce que veut la masse a le sale goût du calimucho
Sea, sex, sun, ragot, people
Et tirs à boulets rouges sur les radeaux des boats people
Les gens de bon cœur s'isolent devant les périls terribles
Trop de dérives stériles, il y a plein d'amour aussi en périphérie
A ceux qui sont debout et ceux aux genoux fléchis
Le cœur compatit si seulement la tête réfléchit
Les puristes à deux balles déguisés en survêt' Fila
Les cons qui voient nos lives comme un ralliement de primates
Et ceux qui roulent nos vies dans un foutu sale climat
On va tous les zinguer
Les abrutis pour qui aimer le drapeau c'est se filer
Les génies de la télé avec les sourcils épilés
Et ceux qui marchent sur les autres pour toucher le billet
On va tous les zinguer
