Let me introduce myself, my name’s Mus and I live here
You wouldn't think so, but I come from Kabylifornia
Yeah, my dad speaks perfect French and I speak almost English
Yeah, my mom’s proud of me and of JSK
I remember when I was little, school done, backpack tossed
I hop on my board to skate all summer
When my mom yells from the window, “Mustapha
Come pack your bag, babe, ’cause tomorrow we’re off to the bled”
And then I raise my glass and my middle finger
To the future, the past, to Paris, to Algiers
To those who love me or not, to those who are like me
Mustapha, that’s me, so dig me, so
Dig me, dig me, dig me
Dig me, dig me, dig me
Dig me, dig me, dig me, dig me, dig me, dig me, dig me
I dig skating, I dig rock, I dig the bled yeah, that’s me
I dig skating, I dig rock, I dig the bled starf’allah
I dig skating, I dig rock, I dig the bled yeah, that’s me
I dig skating, I dig rock, I dig the bled, dig me
I dig skating, I dig rock, I dig the bled yeah, that’s me
I dig skating, I dig rock, I dig the bled starf’allah
I dig skating, I dig rock, I dig the bled yeah, that’s me
I dig skating, I dig rock, I dig the bled, dig me
Let me introduce myself, my name’s Mus, don’t be surprised
Undercover like a rocker I’m telling you my life
I’m a skater, I’m Parabellum and I live at night
I’ll always be whisky-loukoum-Kabylifornia
Curial Projects or Tizi, butter croissant or chaâbi
Between the two, an ollie, Paris-Algiers-Tizi
Curial Projects or Tizi, butter croissant or chaâbi
Like a pogo I live my life
Yeah, I know, one day I’ll be like you, I’ll be part of your life
Yeah, I know, one day I’ll be like you, I’ll be part of your life
Dig me, dig me, dig me, dig me, dig me, dig me, dig me, dig me
Dig me, dig me, dig me, dig me, dig me, dig me, dig me
I dig skating, I dig rock, I dig the bled yeah, that’s me

I dig skating, I dig rock, I dig the bled starf’allah
I dig skating, I dig rock, I dig the bled yeah, that’s me
I dig skating, I dig rock, I dig the bled
And then I raise my glass and my middle finger
To the future, the past, to Paris, to Algiers
To those who love me or not, to those who are like me

And then I raise my glass and my middle finger
To the future, the past, to Paris, to Algiers
