I remember
Rigamortis
Rap like it was before
Aujourd'hui on fait le tour du monde avec un écran
Tchatche avec des gens du Pérou, Rio ou Milan
On fait même de l'argent, le cul dans le divan
Les dés on les relance, ouais, malgré le poids des ans
Beaucoup oublient le temps des missiles et des diamants
Ça trafiquait autant mais on était pas au courant
Y avais pas d'anges, alors et nos dirigeants
Cassaient déjà le décor tout comme dans le présent
Y avaient déjà des tigres, des lionnes et des serpents
La jungle était déjà là : "Rapapapapa"
Aucune couleur à la télé, aucun humoriste, aucun artiste
Grande époque d'une France toute blanche
La misère était là, pas de console dans la chambres
Aujourd'hui on la chante sur un Samsung à 800
Y'avait déjà des morts sur presque tous les continents
Y avait déjà des fils et des frères dans les contingents
A trop regarder derrière on voit pas ce qu'il se passe devant
Je rappel aux nostalgiques dans la scène il y a eu du sang
Avant n'est que le présent d'hier et le présent n'est qu'un futur passé
Mais pour demain, ça se fait maintenant, Rigamortis
Never be the same
Ce n'était pas mieux avant, c'était bien plus violent
Y'avait déjà des politicards cyniques au volant
Chaque année c'était la faim, c'était la crise
Ton passé idéal gît là : Rigamortis
Ce n'était pas mieux naguère aux 4 coins de le Terre
Il faut peser les mots, non le pays n'est pas en guerre
B.O de nos jeunesses, rap des 90
Il ne reviendra plus : Rigamortis
Lorsque j'étais gamin, on s'amusait avec deux flaques d'eau
On rentrait à la casa, complètement trempés, crados
Solidaires dans les bons coups et dans la merde, conscients
Qu'on était des morveux, les culs vissés au même bateau
On marchait torses nus, comme les rois d'Egypte en plein été
Au poignet, la gourmette que la copine avait fait cadeau
On tentait de fourguer un sosse à sa meilleure amie
Grande était sa gueule quand elle disait : "Non, ton pote il est pas beau"
Et puis aimer les autres c'est expérimenter les râteaux
Et défier les tempêtes, agglutinés sur un petit radeau
Avoir un idéal, foi en quelque chose, chez moi
Le crucifix, remplacé par la faucille et le marteau
La France n'était pas le paradis imaginé par ma famille
Où qu'ils aillent on les traitait de sales nabots
La vie surtout pas mieux que maintenant, je pleure encore les miens
Emportés par les larmes des fleurs de pavots
Je pense fort à ma tante qui s'agenouille devant son fils
Et tous les jours, couche des roses rouges sur le caveau
Milieu 70, tous mes grands montaient au braquo
Il y avait plus de morts que ceux que l'on attribue aux narco'

Never be the same
