Intro
Don't worry, I'm gonna do this right
It's Puch'K, my buddy
Roh, roh
She's daddy's girl
Huh, huh
Verse 1
Girls in bikinis, rockstar life
I want nothing down here, everything in the afterlife
I saw Mom crying her eyes out
Hot tears, hot tears
Tequila shot, bottle of tequila
My "te quiero"s are nowhere to be found
We make the euros, the euros
But you shouldn't stray too far from the concrete
Leave the field? No, like Sadio Mané
It's not the wind messing up your hair, nah
Nah, it's the convertible
Right now I'm with the lock
Nah, we're not the ones you're gonna rob
Just one swing of the Facom and I'm inside
When I get in, I go through the shutters
0.5 injection, those aren't her real lips
Whatever you touch, well, it loses value
Off-piste, red run, I set off the avalanche
Verisure, and the alarm goes off
Grr, pah, we're not gonna start beef
VIP, private booth, it's not the same class
It's been over five years since I had a summer
Since I've been on vacation, people ask me where I was
That's my kid, I'm the one who breastf-
That's my kid, I'm the one who breastfed him
I hit it with the flame and the paper burns
Huh, the paper's burning
Day-Date, rose gold, my wrist is shining
I break the hearts of brunettes, blondes and dark-haired girls
Chorus 1
I'd like to pay for everything for pretty Camila
But she forgot that the streets don't forget me
She likes it when I pay for everything, she's a daddy's girl
She's a daddy's girl
She likes it when I wear pink like cotton candy
I keep quiet, cops, we don't talk
Verse 2
Me, I had a heart to begin with
Now I've got a generator in its place
Before, I knew where the nice neighborhoods were
Now I've got my place there
She was pretty, she had everything
But she only wanted my money
But she's no mummy, now she can't sit still
La Rvfleuze, Vacra, it makes a racket
We're picking up passers-by, it's not twenty grams
Scoping out the deal on the avenue, what?
Scoping out the deal on Avenue Wagram
I wasn't there, and yet it's my dope
Between us, it's transparent
Apparently she knows my character, my temper
She knows things heat up really fast
Chorus 2
I'd like to pay for everything for pretty Camila
But she forgot that the streets don't forget me
She likes it when I pay for everything, she's a daddy's girl
She's a daddy's girl
She likes it when I wear pink like cotton candy
I keep quiet, cops, we don't talk
Chorus 3
I'd like to pay for everything for pretty Camila
But she forgot that the streets don't forget me
She likes it when I pay for everything, she's a daddy's girl
She's a daddy's girl
She likes it when I wear pink like cotton candy
I keep quiet, cops, we don't talk
Outro
I'd like to pay for everything
I'd like to pay for everything, Camila
She's a daddy's girl
I'd like to pay for everything
She's a daddy's girl
Daddy, daddy, yeah, yeah

allaité — breastfed

Allaité is the past participle of the verb allaiter, meaning "to breastfeed". It's an unexpected and striking word to find in a rap song, making it quite memorable.

In the lyrics, Vacra says, "C'est mon gosse, c'est moi j'l'ai allaité" (It's my kid, I breastfed him). This line is likely used metaphorically to emphasize his deep connection and responsibility to something or someone he has nurtured and brought up, perhaps referring to his music, his crew, or even his street credibility, rather than literally breastfeeding a child.

Vacra spends most of this track talking about the money, and the chorus is a shrug at the girl who wants it. "Elle aime quand j'lui paye tout, c'est une fille à papa" (She likes it when I pay for everything, she's a daddy's girl) is the whole joke: he calls her spoiled while lining up to spoil her, then admits "Mais elle a oublié que la rue ne m'oublie pas" (But she forgot that the streets don't forget me). The nickname returns as sugar in "Elle aime quand j'suis en rose comme une barbe à papa" (She likes it when I wear pink like cotton candy), because in French cotton candy is barbe à papa, literally "daddy's beard".

The verses are a victory lap with a burglar's sense of humor. He brags that "C'est pas le vent qui décoiffe, nan" (It's not the wind messing up your hair, nah) before the punchline "Nan, c'est le cabriolet" (Nah, it's the convertible), then slides into talk of locks, shutters and a Verisure alarm going off. The second verse name-checks both rappers and moves the scene to the smart Paris neighborhoods where they now have a place. Every chorus closes on the street code of "Je garde le silence, OPJ, on parle pas" (I keep quiet, cops, we don't talk), so the flashy life never quite drowns out where the money came from.
