Le train d'vie est le même, j'ai pas envie d'le changer
The way of life is the same, I don't want to change it
Donne-moi d'quoi investir et j'repars aussitôt
Give me something to invest and I'll leave immediately
Et le vol, ça paye pas, j'vais faire partir des 100 g
And theft doesn't pay, I'm going to move 100 grams
Un des nôtres est à terre, faut que j'remet les gants
One of ours is down, I need to put my gloves back on
J'ai rôdé la nuit, j'ai cherché les billets
I roamed at night, I looked for the money
Il dit qu'il est fort mais c'est pas le meilleur
He says he's strong but he's not the best
Et y a pas que la police qui fait les saisies
And it's not just the police who make seizures
(Et y a pas que la police qui fait les saisies)
(And it's not just the police who make seizures)
J'ai rôdé la nuit, j'ai cherché les billets
I roamed at night, I looked for the money
J'ai rôdé la nuit, j'ai cherché les billets
I roamed at night, I looked for the money
(J'ai rôdé la nuit, j'ai cherché les billets)
(I roamed at night, I looked for the money)
Il dit qu'il est fort mais c'est pas le meilleur
He says he's strong but he's not the best
(Il dit qu'il est fort mais c'est pas le meilleur)
(He says he's strong but he's not the best)
Et y a pas que la police qui fait les saisies
And it's not just the police who make seizures
(Et y a pas que la police qui fait les saisies)
(And it's not just the police who make seizures)
J'ai rôdé la nuit (ouh, ouh, ouh, ouh, ouh)
I roamed at night (ouh, ouh, ouh, ouh, ouh)
Chaque jour, j'essaie d'être meilleur
Every day, I try to be better
Pas d'amour sans la haine, pas de paix sans guerre
No love without hate, no peace without war
Et y a pas qu'la police qui fait des saisies
And it's not just the police who make seizures
J'suis bloqué dans la street, j'me vois pas partir
I'm stuck in the street, I don't see myself leaving
Au quartier, ça devient compliqué, j'ai du me procurer une arme
In the neighborhood, it's getting complicated, I had to get a weapon
Si jamais demain je pars, pleure pas, prie pour moi
If ever tomorrow I leave, don't cry, pray for me
Pleure pas, non, prie pour moi
Don't cry, no, pray for me
Le train d'vie est le même, j'ai pas envie d'le changer
The way of life is the same, I don't want to change it
Donne-moi d'quoi investir et j'repars aussitôt
Give me something to invest and I'll leave immediately

And theft doesn't pay, I'm going to move 100 grams
Un des nôtres est à terre, faut que j'remet les gants

J'ai rôdé la nuit, j'ai cherché les billets
I roamed at night, I looked for the money
(J'ai rôdé la nuit, j'ai cherché les billets)

rôdé — prowled / roamed
Rôdé comes from the verb rôder, which means to prowl, roam, or hang around. It often carries a connotation of being in a place with a specific, sometimes illicit, purpose.
In the context of the song, the artist repeatedly sings, "J'ai rôdé la nuit, j'ai cherché les billets" (I prowled the night, I looked for money). This word vividly paints a picture of someone navigating the streets at night, likely involved in activities to earn money, highlighting the gritty reality of their life.
