Perchés literally means "perched," like a bird on a branch. However, in French slang, it's often used to describe someone who is a bit "high," "crazy," or "out of touch with reality."
In the song, the line "On est tous un peu perchés" (We're all a bit perched/crazy) suggests a shared human experience of being a little bit eccentric or perhaps lost in our own thoughts and pursuits. It's an interesting word because it carries both a literal image and a common, informal slang meaning, making it memorable and culturally insightful.
Silvàn Areg’s track “J’sais Pas Trop” (which roughly means I’m Not So Sure) is a high-energy pep talk wrapped in pop rhythms and urban poetry. Drawing on his Armenian roots and a life of hustling "with nothing,” the singer admits he is always running, stumbling, and sometimes trying too hard, yet he refuses to give in to regret. Instead, he repeats a simple mantra: do your best, keep going, and remember that after the rain comes sunshine.
Money can’t buy back time, social masks are exhausting, and real success is just being yourself. With that in mind, Areg cheers on the listener to create their own opportunities, chase their wildest projects, and accept the inevitable highs and lows along the way. The chorus’s honest “J’sais pas trop” becomes a relatable shrug that turns doubt into courage: good luck, see you soon, and let’s keep the party going even when life is messy.
