Ça Va Beaucoup Trop Vite Lyrics in English Bigflo & Oli
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Ça Va Beaucoup Trop Vite by Bigflo & Oli from French to English.
At first, there was only emptiness, no cities and no humans
Those morons hungry for banknotes
So the void, then after a little while
Balalabigbang
Here comes the Big Bang
Thousands of particles smash into each other
In the void, multiplying
In the abyss, like sperm cells
Now Earth shows up but it's a barren Earth
Sorry scientists, I know you'll laugh at that
There was no water, only volcanoes and lava
In the middle of the great beyond
It wasn't worth the trip
But humans weren't there so it was calm
Later in the verse that won't be the case
The arrival of water was a big step
The blue planet, it's wonderful
A spin-out
In the endless universe stretching from galaxies to nebulas
I'm moved
I keep going 'cause now the microbes appear
Cells split in mitosis
There's life in the water, nothing in the air
Aquatic creatures with funny names
Then a fish lands on Earth and struggles
It all starts with him, yeah, it all starts there
Come on my guy, look, legs are sprouting on him
Don't stop, I'm thrilled by the show
He walks on proud legs, my friends, here come the mammals
The machine's running, nobody can stop it now
Listen to me kid 'cause everything's hereditary
All this keeps going up to the apes
Guess who's next?
When one of them stands on two feet
I don't know if you realize the impact
Here's our buddy, the Australopithecus
From here on, I'll speed up, man
The rest is in every library
Shh, don't talk about it with the priest
Humans organize into societies
Change gods by place and kings by laws
Basically he invented everything, the wheel and fire
So today, he believes in himself
Armies and walls
Swords and battles
Knights or the Maasai
On Earth it's a mess
Cattle is the currency
Cutting each other up for medals
Life's just a detail in this battle royale
But don't be scared kid, don't worry
There aren't only b*stards
There's art and beauty in the mix
Magnificent palaces, polished stones
Palettes of brushes
For every master painting in the cathedrals
And every dish in the palaces, you see there's a gap
From the best to the worst, that's what we're capable of
I see you're turning pale
For the worst it's not your fault
You weren't there, don't cry it's okay
Quickly Antiquity, the Middle Ages, the Renaissance
The discovery of America and the slavery that comes with it
The Revolution in Paris, then kings lose their heads
Two world wars, deportation
Hearts weren't in a party mood
All that so my parents could meet
F*ck and so I could be born
So I grow up and I talk and I rap and I break through
Anyway humanity closed every loop
Up to this moment when you're hearing this verse
If we squeeze the history of the universe into one year
The Big Bang happens on January first
Earth forms early September, life appears on the 9th
On December 31st, the great apes show up at 2 p.m
Homo sapiens, modern man
As modern as Bigflo Oli, arrives at 11:48 p.m
Of course past and future go together
Teleported there, you won't have any bearings
Imagine the evolution humanity will make
If the world keeps moving at light speed
We'll rush into gigantic cities
Where buildings pile up
Maybe we'll only eat insect vitamins
And vacuum-packed bars of nasty food
Delivered to us in packs
Steak-fries in 20 milliliters
Big Macs in tiny pills at the bottom of the bag
We'll have forgotten every vegetable's color
Living on the Moon but gawking at a tomato plant
In the old-time museum
We'll see the animals from before, stuffed
Forks to show how people used to eat
Squares of grass under glass and flowers framed
Imagine the state of flora and fauna
A new finger on the hand to hold my iPhone
A chip deep in the head, we've changed the rules
No more bikes, no more skates, there'll only be drones
Cancer cured in two weeks
An AIDS vaccine saves the human race
Life expectancy calculated in one test
Synthetic tweaking of biological genomes
Chemical battles, no more bullets or tanks
Elon Musk on the banknotes
Quintessence, constant evolution
Galaxies expanding
Big Freeze, Big Bang
At the start, there was only emptiness
But life's challenge only frayed humanity's threads
Unlimited greed in the cities
Pushed the f*cking past to flip a coin
You get it, you show off?
But in the time of one frame
You leave the game
You f*ck then you freeze
You'll fill the dumpster like clothes in a thrift shop
You win or you lose while time crumbles
A film and the fame for the atoms that dodge each other
Barely time to live, you end up dead
You can shout "Please, help, heaven"
All your grandkids will've already forgotten your face
Religions might end up merging
All faith conflicts forgiven over time
Holograms rule us
Politics is robotic
Votes, stats and databases
Technological revolution
Demographic evolution
Diplomatic relations
Digital revelation
The world's too fast and time's unkind
Where the avant-garde become tomorrow's has-beens
A little scared
But I won't get to know it
Wholeheartedly
For the planet's fight
Gently
Yeah, humans who connect
All in their
Tragedy
The greatness
Of humanity will be reborn
A quarter hour
For thousands of kilometers
The authors
Will tell you online
That a rapper
Had predicted it
Man, have you seen the state of the world?
Hunger, bullets and bombs
Tell Galileo he was right, Earth was round
From the ecu to Ethereum
Those who lived in Rome
Too shocked to pay to visit the Colosseum
From voice to CD-ROM
Neurons linked like telecoms
Libraries burn so Google Chrome
Carbon-14
Speculation, who'll pop the bubble-gum bubble?
I hit the gas and take off, from up here I see the men
We're earthworms if the planet is an apple
And you know a war's the best PR stunt
And in millennia who'll be playing the album?
I poke and I prod, tics and OCDs, I emptied the stock
I leaked the posts and we aimed for the top, by cheating or flopping
Rigged the votes
It's going too fast bro, we've only one life so maybe I should stop
