Control Lyrics in English Bilal Hassani

Bilal Hassani’s “Control” feels like stepping into a neon-lit maze at 2 a.m., where every beat pulls you deeper into a party that’s both thrilling and unsettling. The French singer invites us to follow him through crowded rooms filled with strange smells, hypnotic lights, and hands that keep tugging him back when he tries to leave. His bilingual lyrics mirror the push-and-pull: in French he admits “j’aimerais partir” (I’d like to leave), then in English he confesses “I want it right now.” That tension creates an atmosphere of temptation, excitement, and mounting anxiety, all wrapped in glossy pop production.

At its core, the song is a relatable story about losing—and craving—control. Hassani’s narrator tumbles from curiosity to panic as the night blurs, describing the feeling of being “possédé” (possessed) and “high,” yet unable to escape the dance floor’s spell. The repetitive chorus “I lost all control” becomes both a warning and a release, capturing how easy it is to get swept away by peer pressure, intoxicants, or the desperate need to belong. By the final refrain, listeners are left with a powerful question: is surrendering to the moment liberating, or is it a dangerous illusion? Either way, “Control” turns that inner conflict into an irresistible, cinematic ride.
