Venez voir [English translation]

[1st verse]

I'm only in my twenties

And my memory is already full to bursting

Of crazy things that I have unwittingly seen and that shocked me

Having grown where kids slit their veins

They beg for death, fortunately this is a beg in vain

They are tearing apart

I've seen kids raped by their parents

I've seen unfair judges and violent educators

I've seen this kid from reform school, skull split open, beat up by cops

I've seen this teacher crying like shit hit by a crowd of kids

I have seen citizens running all over the place charged by a large group of CRS

I've seen these youngins on the ground being coshed hardly

I've seen these mafiosi settling accounts shotgun style

I've seen this false caïd playing the tough guy and making a fool of himself

I've seen this junkie dragging a granny

Or these dealer of heroine pursuing a kid in order to mummify her

I've seen justice being wrong, convicting innocents

I've seen too young that this world is twisted and that it loves blood so much

[Chrous]

Don't tell me that this world is right

Ladies and gentlemen

Come to see where the reality wants to blind in our eyes

I've seen these nefast fragments way too young

I've forgotten the worst thanks to god but too many images won't go away

Don't tell me that this world is right

Unless you are insincere

You see its "beautiful reflection" here

So come see the folly that this world engenders

Please remove your blinkers

Be careful: shocking images

[2nd verse]

I've seen adults throw kids in the rabla 1

I've seen the corpse of the "human's rights" assassinated by blah 2

I've seen the pills 3 striking 4 sane persons

I've seen olders making kids work

Or make (girl) kids pregnant

I have seen this junkie with withdrawal symptoms pointing a syringe on a passer-by

Threatening to inject AIDS into him for his money

I've seen Man wrecking the nature

And a friend dying from motorbike accident because of a drunkard

I've seen that between four walls the envy of killing can become humane

I've seen that we can kill with one hand

I've seen dark people manipulating while preaching

I've seen dark magic changing people wholly

I've seen "mi hermana"5 crying because of uncertain future

Or kids sniffing glue in Argentine shanty towns

I've seen my country being fucked with impunity by the Occident

I've seen the Third-World screaming "vengeance"

[Chorus]

[3rd verse]

I've seen this tramp beat up until "goomer"* by these little jerks

I've seen the folly of revenge when nothing matters any more

I've seen brothers killing each other, blinded by pride

I've seen that this world is made of opportunistic idiots who only think of themselves

I've seen paedophiles imprisoned only three months

Or this sista crying, saying that she was raped by this ex-brother of mine

I've seen some losing themselves because of drugs

I've seen this little bitch sequestrating a granny with a schlass 6 "for the lols"

This young jumping into the void while a bad trip

I've seen these dickheads going to war for the pride of their country

I've seen cruelty being "vouvoyer" 7

Or kids in psychiatric hospital because they didn't have a house any more

I've seen "democracy" becoming an "elite-craty" or rather an "elite-filth" 8

That ordered us to stay sat in the inertia

I have seen minors in the street working as prostitutes

Or this blood-drenched child surrounded by cops screaming "yippee we got him!"

[Chorus]

1. I think it's heroin... in which case this sentence is badly translated 2. It's "blabla" in fr. Worthless talk and manipulation. 3. Medicine 4. As in bowling 5. Sister 6. Knife 7. See the description 8. Wordplay with the french words. Sounds like "crasse" which means "filth"
