Croyez en moi [English translation]

Under-esteemed talents lead us to become fallen targets by the GOM* authority.

It’s not man who comes to life, it’s life which comes to man.

When I was younger, I was taught to take what life gives me.

So I took what she gave, but it wasn’t enough.

It’s not enough just to eat in order to feel full.

Me, I hunger for sentiments, I thirst for compliments.

There’s so much for people to live for.

But there are some who take away these lives, all for money!

Even if everyone does not have the same opportunities,

We all need to be recognized.

Refrain :

I need you / someone to listen to me, to look at me, to have confidence in me.

And even if I don’t lead a model life, believe in me !

I need you / someone to listen to me, to look at me, to have confidence in me.

And even if I don’t lead a model life, believe in me !

The pearles of success are within music and sport : because at school

They insisted upon us to quickly change sides.

Our travels are chaotic because many potholes force us to set out sights for minimum wage,**

But we want to aim for the moon.

And while our parents love us,

They take us for puppets.

They’re surprised by the hatred in the world, but want us only to alter things about the women.

A rich Arab is seen as a rich man,

While a poor Arab is seen as an Arab.

Either money helps us achieve great success or it’s the point of debate!

Refrain :

I need you / someone to listen to me, to look at me, to have confidence in me.

And even if I don’t lead a model life, believe in me !

I need you / someone to listen to me, to look at me, to have confidence in me.

And even if I don’t lead a model life, believe in me !

Panache :

We all want fast cars, bullion, sacs of money, nice girlfriends***...

To be able to break through, to be rich and dance...

But life is complicated !

People kill each other to gain riches and lose themselves in sadness.

The current time priviledges us with liberty.

But I no longer see equality, and even less fraternity.

We survive in the ghettos.

It’s hell.

I’m starving,

I want to hit someone,

I’m hastling you with my world

I bring you there where life is so depressing !

Attend to me,

Look at me,

The pain is written on my face!

Mister Panache, what do you have to say about this?

I wanted a stand-off, what rotten luck !

We all need to be recognized !

Refrain :

I need you / someone to listen to me, to look at me, to have confidence in me.

And even if I don’t lead a model life, believe in me !

I need you / someone to listen to me, to look at me, to have confidence in me.

And even if I don’t lead a model life, believe in me !
