Au bout du compte [English translation]

[Verse 1: Akhenaton]

All those mornings when I kissed my mother

Coffee, crisp, when the sun blazed the sky

Leaving the house, my shoes kissed the ground

In mistral, I climbed the coast

My headphone propped on the ears, rap in the veins

I was living just for the weekend

Great dream, so nothing could interfere

There's only my jean that was cracking on the benches of high school

This same jeans, too stuck on the walls and to the neighborhood

When troubles came, it maintained the steel

[Couplet 2 : Wiley]

It's a new day now, but I ain't holding back

Spit bars that come on an old school Roll Deep track (Tiger)

Went top five for the fam, now I won't pursue

But I gotta let them know I ain't only that

Told you I'm gonna win, even though I sinned (I'm a sinner)

I once was a prince but now I am a king

I play it all down but now I got to bling

Cause I may as well embrace the blood clot thing

[Verse 3: Akhenaton]

This street became my lasso

Easy money, my ace, contained the assault

In the streets of the center, sitting on my bike

I smiled at everyone, salam, salut, hello

Hmm, I'm sorry, officer, I didn't steal anything

I only engraved this mic in silver; trip

On the wings of my songs, ten thousand feet above

Troubles that, like waves, faced our homes

[Refrain : Wiley]

Wha-La-La-Leng

Wha-La-La-Leng

[Verse 4: Akhenaton]

We will certainly regret our fights in the playground

Ultimately, only one thing remain: love

And if the road seems long, I assure you, it's short

Too short to spend a second one to fight

This new day, me, I live it well, yeah

I forgive everything, but I forget nothing, no

[Refrain : Wiley]

Wha-La-La-Leng

Wha-La-La-Leng

[Outro : Wiley]

Told you I am a God, this ain't a [?]

I spit sick bars but I can do a song

I play it all down but you know I was the one

So now I may as well embrace the path that I'm on
