Jamais de recul, que ce soit à plusieurs ou bien tout seul
Never backing down, whether with others or all alone
Comme le dernier I-Mac Apple, jamais ne recule
Like the latest Apple iMac, never backs down
Devant les problèmes les difficultés
In front of problems, difficulties
Tiens bon comme des tentacules
Holds on tight like tentacles
Jamais ne recule
Never backs down
Comme le sang qui coule qui circule dans tes veines
Like the blood that flows, that circulates in your veins
Ma force vient du plus haut, du grand manitou
My strength comes from the highest, from the great manitou
Il m'accompagne partout, el numero uno
He accompanies me everywhere, el numero uno
Ma force vient du plus haut, du grand manitou
My strength comes from the highest, from the great manitou
Il m'accompagne partout, el numero uno
He accompanies me everywhere, el numero uno
Solide comme un jean Levi's
Solid like Levi's jeans
Avec lui à mes cotés je ne crains rien ni personne
With him by my side I fear nothing nor nobody
Pas besoin d'aller à l'église pour me confier à lui
No need to go to church to confide in him
Pas d'une tierce personne
Not through a third person
Je préfère la confiance à la traitrise
I prefer trust over betrayal
D'autre préfèrent dealer avec le diable en personne
Others prefer to deal with the devil himself
Fidèle malgrè tout ce qu'ils disent
Faithful despite all they say
C'est dieu qui me guide qui protège ma personne

Qu'il pleuve, qu'il grèle ou qu'il neige
Whether it rains, hails, or snows
Le Tout Puissant me protège, me permet d'éviter les pièges
The Almighty protects me, allows me to avoid traps
Me donne le pain du p'tit dèj et mes souffrances il allège
Gives me breakfast bread and lightens my suffering
Brise les sortilèges telle Blanche-Neige
Breaks spells like Snow White
Que tu sois blanc, noir ou beige, il pige ton manège
Whether you're white, black, or beige, he gets your game
N'essaie pas de le doubler tu te feras tèj
Don't try to double-cross him, you'll get thrown out
C'est là-haut qu'il siège, mais toujours parmi nous
It's up there that he sits, but always among us
C'est l'heure du refrain donc j'abrège
It's chorus time so I'll cut it short
Ma force vient du plus haut, du grand manitou
My strength comes from the highest, from the great manitou
Il m'accompagne partout, el numero uno
He accompanies me everywhere, el numero uno
Ma force vient du plus haut, du grand manitou
My strength comes from the highest, from the great manitou

Je me sens fort comme Hercule de l'aube au crépuscule
I feel strong like Hercules from dawn till dusk
Quand l'ennemi me bouscule, jamais je ne bascule
When the enemy shoves me, I never fall
Sans prendre de pilule, ma force pullule à l'instar de Hulk
Without taking a pill, my strength swarms like Hulk's
Sans prendre de pilule, ma force pullule à l'instar de Hulk
Without taking a pill, my strength swarms like Hulk's
