Money [English translation]
Money [English translation]
[Chorus]
You want money? You want money?
Do you know the danger of money?
Are you aware that you will have nothing up there?
Look at Cahuzac who made them into idiots
The tramp who begs for money
I don't think that he does it for the same reasons
The billionaire speaks to the heads on his bills
Because he has lost his mind
[Verse 1]
He came up from nothing, he just had respect
Four years living with a woman, unable to afford to pay the restaurant
Always right, everybody loved him, everyone wanted to be his guy
In his dictionary, one could not find the word "miser"
He was known for the talent he had for football
The future whispered to us that he could not be unhappy
But life has caused around him, motherfucker
The sharks to lay eyes on what was closest to him
Impossible to anticipate when the devil lets you in
Asks the guys of your city but isn't really going to include them
And the brother flies away and his wings are golden
He doesn't want us to believe that there is a life after death.
And it's my duty, I must
Talk to you about it, yes, it's my duty, I must
His life a black hole, too dark
She took away his power, to believe it it must be seen
And at night, when his town shuts down
He counts his bills, he counts bills
Yes, in the evening, once night falls
Alone with his demons, yes, alone with his money
[Chorus]
[Verse 2]
She also didn't know the chic side of her city
She would have never believed that she'd stay in hotels like The Ritz
She who came from the country that could afford nothing
She was promised the moon, but only if her booty shook
Next to her, her daughter would tell her "Oh Mom, I'm so hungry",
"Yes, I know, I'm not at that age, but I'm willing to suck your breast."
A critical situation, I have trouble cleaning up the lyrics
There, surprised to panic, she had to play up her physique.
All for the money, she starts to give herself
Silicone lips, now, the rich know her
Humiliated every evening before she could take her money
Sometimes even more, she found herself in the middle
Exhausted, all her strength, she drew
Her one desire: to die or else put these men in jail
It's her little girl of six who seeks the help of the Almighty
If she tells you about her short life, you'll have chills
And in the evening, when her daughter falls asleep
She counts her bills, she counts her bills
All these images that haunt her brain
All that for the kid, all of that for survival
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
Stories like that, I can tell you them until we're tired
Money does not buy happiness, cousin, I swear, you got no idea
Myself, I thought that once the bank account was filled, everything would be better
But that's another story, Black M who approaches the Fire
Oh misfortunes, misfortunes, to the one who counts only on money, money
I said, "misfortunes, misfortunes, to the one who counts only on money, money"
