Esprits libres [English translation]

« Because nothing will change if we rely on pessimistic people, cousin! »

Stop judging us, whoever you are and wherever you're from

Because we come from a district where people want to shake up your wing

Because we're free and insurgent

Naive but worked up

Calm like weather or nuclear tempered

Yes, we are the intrigue at the gates of reality

Wearers of a last breath

Look outside what the street turns out to be

Bad faith getting into line with awakening

To believe in it is like discussing solidarity with a guy from Medef1

There's no point in it, it's called burying your head in the sand

When the ignorant one hides behind one's stingy ignorance

He becomes virulent, violent, and a defender of your ranks

Hanging on to all your fictions and devouring everything in his trail

We represent the mixing,

The alliance of heart and anger

Of base and margins,we make your palaces shake

Here come the hellions, we'll change the world whether you want it or not

Because this is our destiny and History will prove us right!

Move away if you're too cowardly to see the truth

Give way to free minds

Lineage of those who will turn history down

We won't change the world if we rely on pessimistic people

So shut up now, we're fed up with your poison

'came to blow up the dividing walls, it's time for harvest

Shut up now, you bunch of dark vibes' propagators

Shut it up now!

Why do you look down on us?

Get out of your own bubble so we can discuss again

We build to better shake their fortifications

Know that the beauty of life depends of the way you look at it

And that when a close one leaves us forever there's never ever any good bye

Everything goes out of control and they pretend it's normal

It's your dreams that made this world and it looks like a nightmare

Don't lecture us if you're sized to their mould

Heart hurting too much

You don't understand, for sure, yours is in a coma

After centuries of trauma the torch hasn't died

It has burnt across centuries and we are many

We've seen the beast trying to clasp us

It went out of your heads to lock us up in the box

We know its vice so well, it's been ages since it gave itself away

The system is nothing but an abomination that has built up

On the weakest and is doomed to collapse, go tell them that!

But who can feel happiness when the entire living is wounded?

Move away if you're too cowardly to see the truth

Give way to free minds

Lineage of those who will turn history down

We won't change the world if we rely on pessimistic people

So shut up now, we're fed up with your poison

'came to blow up the dividing walls, it's time for harvest

Shut up now, you bunch of dark vibes' propagators

Shut it up now!

For centuries we've heard no one but you

Your word is a monopoly

« Stand at attention » teaching methods, single-minded approach2 and holocaust

You are inside us, we are inside you since we are the otherness

Risen up from the old stakes because today will be our era

So we express ourselves and our ideas are echoing

Everywhere, because we carry the same heart

And because we recognize ourselves in the other

You bunch of sorcerers, your words have been lulling us into sleep for quite a while

And manage to corrupt our people to the extend that Hell starts to take shape

But here comes the time for revelations

Whether they want it or not, the last generation

Before anything else, the fall or the rise

We have no veneration for you

Without acceleration, the passage will be the colour of its consideration

It's a war of minds, a conquest upon imaginary worlds

The time has come to choose, being at a crossroads

The choice of a civilization that went for a quest long time ago, facing its own fate

Move away if you're too cowardly to see the truth

Give way to free minds

Lineage of those who will turn history down

We won't change the world if we rely on pessimists

So shut up now, we're fed up with your poison

'came to blow up the dividing walls, it's time for harvest

Shut up now, you bunch of dark vibes' propagators

Shut it up now!
