Akhenaton :
Le r'veil ? Brusque ! J'veux rien de c?qui m?est d'
Des regrets, minimum, si la police fait des b?vues
J?pr'te l'oreille de part et d'autre, les discours me m'dusent
Eux fusillent nos 'tudes, nos parents : ils nous 'duquent
On Tiens le r?le de sous fifre, nos bras sont faits pour pousser
Un quotidien de soucis, objectif : Bouffer
?a s?corse si tu ram?nes ton faci's typ? de tewfik
Le mec bouffi dit ok ! ? plus tard j'te passe un coup d'fil
Le phone ? il est muet, le tutoiement : de rigueur
La marche sur le fil te f?che, avec les lois en vigueur
Au ball-trap : le DRH, mon sommeil : une Vendetta
Votre pyramide si elle craque, on la laissera dans l''tat
Shurik'n :
On se tue au taf, quand y en a, c'est le drame en fin de mois
3 bouches aux aboies, frigo vide, ch?que en bois,
7 piges sur un banc, dipl'm? top niveau,
On n?est pas tous ?gaux, au final « Mc Do »
Main d'oeuvre, importàe, routes neuves goudronn?es,
Combattants oubli's, jeunes fran?ais expuls's
Insultes immigr's, Histoires d'nigr?es
Vu comme une mauvaise graine : « R'sultat FN »
Familles d'cim?es, b'timents calcin's,
CRS sans papiers, maltraitàs aux guichets,
S??nerver, pas le temps,
Refouler, souvent
Pas riche, pas blanc,
Une piaule, pas de chance
Refrain (x2) :
Ce constat fait dans l'temps, ils nous ont mis dans l'vent
Balisent quand ils entendent : « palapapala »
On vit des courses haletantes, les balles sont dans l'autre camp
Nos Lyrics n?ont pas d'gants, y?a rien d'personnel
Shurik'n :
Informations d'form?es, illusion tàl'vis?e, tout le monde sait
Que les bons, sont pas mieux que les mauvais
On nous prend pour des ben'ts, le cul coller dans le ciment
La tàte, dans les 'toiles, ? regarder passer le temps
21?me, ?a y est, on y est, dis moi donc ce qui a chang?
Deux tiers de la populasse, sous le seuil de pauvretà
Les autres mangent pour travailler, travaillent pour manger
Cercle vicieux, mais dans ce fourbi,
Dis moi ? quels moments on vit
Les moutons, on sait c?qu?ils veulent,
Les pigeons, on sait c?qu?ils aiment
Bien dress's « ferme ta gueule », pas de griffes et pas de dents
Tous en file indienne, interdiction de r'ver,
On nous tond, on nous saigne et une fois us?, on nous jette
Akhenaton :
J'suis l'hirondelle sur le fil, ma destin?e ? Celle de l'aigle
Mon bagage ? Le v?cu, ma ville ? Mon leg
Mon domicile ? La mesure, le verbe ? C'est mon agr?g
Pour les skins, j'suis blanc, ? leurs yeux j'suis pire qu?un n?gre
Nos quartiers : du b'ton, le b'ton il est ? Bouygues
Bouygues il en a rien foutre, si ton cul est dans la mouise
Notre drogue ? La weed, leur drogue ? Le sky
Les grands crus ? C'est de l'art, tes tàtes en fleurs ? C'est pas l'gal
Minuit, « uiuiu », menottes : courrez
Chaque jour, une femme meurt, islamiste ? Non, mec bourr?
Parcours ? Classique, mon avis ? No comment
Distrib?g?n?rale fils, donc n?y vois rien de personnel
(Refrain x3)
Akhenaton (2x) :
Comprends la dimension, le geste et le sens de nos r?cits
On rel've taches et d'fis, avec ces sons qui d'filent
On r?gle pas de comptes, c'est pas perso, c'est rien qu?un constat
Pour ?a, faudrait pas qu?ils jettent nos phrases, nos vers dans crimes et d'lits
Y?a rien d'personnel
