Baby, you don't know how to dose
I already gotta bail
I can't be a savior
I walked into this game
Without a ticket
We jumped the turnstile
Like two fare dodgers
They're throwing punches in front of the club
Damn, it's heating up
Signal the driver
I don't care about their opinion
Them, they're just jokes
Yeah, they're just bloggers
I protect my brother for life
So if I'm Vi
Then Oli is Powder
Life's messed up
If I'd been born in the States
I'd probably be in Power
I didn't wanna show you
That you were hurting me
So I kept a straight face
Like in poker
Each their strength, each their spot
If Oli's the ace, then me
I'm the joker
Look me in the eyes
Tell me the truth, the older I get
The more I tell myself I earned it
There's nothing to win
Apart from some R.I.P.'s
I'll be dead anyway
F*ck posterity
I start meditating
Soon I'm gonna levitate
Soon I'm gonna guide them
I'm gonna make them recite
Machines against cash
They do it
Machines against cash
They do it every day
I'm at the age where the kids want me
As a mentor
I'm watching the hill
Waiting for reinforcements to arrive
Young crow turned
Big condor
When you get rich
You sink into comfort
Oli isn't tired
He still wants to f*ck them up
Took me a while to say it
But yeah, I was wrong
I hide my feelings
In Pandora's box
I look at her smiling
While she falls asleep
While she falls asleep
Oli, my brother, makes art
Every word is gold
We come from far
That's where it starts
I've changed
I think I forgive y'all
Mom's health
My reflection in the Garonne
Sometimes I tell myself
That it's made of tears
You know the artist
But not the man
You know the artist
But not the man
I'm gonna ruin the trip
If I anticipate the crash
Curious, I'd like to see
Everything they hide from us
They don't really fight
They wrestle
Close-ups, fake blood
Fake trash
His hand shakes on the gun
During the hostage taking
Always wary
Of the hidden side
Of guys too wise
Short-lived career
Artists panic
Like the pianist
Who played on the Titanic
I'm mad at life
Like a guy in paradise
Shot by a rifle
The day I'm out of inspo
I'll diversify
I foresee the end of oil
Like a Qatari
If you hate me
It's 'cause we look alike
Tell me what's left
Of adolescence
Phoenix in my lines
Gotta mix
Art with tears
Ink with ashes
Endless thoughts
Strange phenomenon
No way you can feel
The life I lead
And you're starting to get
What you hadn't got
I avenged my ancestors
We're even
Fake getaway to see who
Is the traitor in the team
Is the grass greener
Next door
If the lawn is artificial
London, first school trip
I counted coins
For a keyring
Years later
Sold-out show
Future thirty-year-old fulfilled
I closed the circle
Of my close ones
It's about feeling
Not a little whim
You wish me harm
That's ugly
When you come close
My scar hurts
Fans and buddies
Are hyped
Like a cop and a pickpocket
On Oxford Street
Chasing myself
Big car chase
Where I'm gonna once again
Take the wrong track
My buddy from elementary
Just had a kid
Now he's finally touching
His dream life
He tells me the magic
Of birth
Meanwhile
I'm trying to bring into the world
A mixtape
A mixtape, let's go
Those who knew
Aren't surprised

SONG MEANING

“Londres En Mars” feels like boarding a last-minute train ride with Bigflo & Oli, racing from their first school trip to London to the neon glare of sold-out arenas. The brothers recount how they hopped the turnstile into the rap game “sans ticket,” juggling sudden fame, street scuffles, and online critics while protecting each other like comic-book heroes (Oli the Ace, Bigflo the Joker). In a swirl of pop-culture nods, self-deprecating humor, and razor-sharp wordplay, they question success, legacy, and the comfort money brings, all while dodging the “machines” that turn art into cash.

Beneath the bravado beats a reflective heart: Bigflo meditates on mortality, hides pain behind a poker face, and weighs mixtapes against motherhood when a childhood friend becomes a parent. The song draws a full circle—from counting coins for a souvenir keyring in Oxford Street to headlining that same city—reminding us that fame never erases roots, doubts, or scars. “Londres En Mars” is ultimately a celebration of brotherhood and artistic grit, urging listeners to blend art with tears, ink with ashes and keep evolving, no matter how dizzying the ride.
