King Lyrics in English by Bosh

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song King by Bosh from French to English.
Des fois, j'repense à l'époque d'la tess'
Sometimes, I think back to the hood days
Y avait pas le chauffage dans la caisse
There was no heating in the car
Demain, si tu veux l'faire, qui t'empêche?
Tomorrow, if you want to do it, who's stopping you?
Détermination, pacsons, j'encaisse
Determination, packs, I cash in
Tu m'as vu sur Paname faire d'l'acting
You saw me in Paris doing acting
Avant, j'étais dans les carjacking
Before, I was into carjacking
J'fais des millions, j'veux être le King
I'm making millions, I want to be the King
J'fais des millions, j'veux être le King
I'm making millions, I want to be the King
Des fois, j'repense à l'époque d'la tess'
Sometimes, I think back to the hood days
Y avait pas le chauffage dans la caisse
There was no heating in the car
Demain, si tu veux l'faire, qui t'empêche?
Tomorrow, if you want to do it, who's stopping you?
Détermination, pacsons, j'encaisse
Determination, packs, I cash in
Tu m'as vu sur Paname faire d'l'acting
You saw me in Paris doing acting
Avant, j'étais dans les carjacking
Before, I was into carjacking
J'fais des millions, j'veux être le King
I'm making millions, I want to be the King
J'fais des millions, j'veux être le King
I'm making millions, I want to be the King
J'entends chanter les gros métaux, (Kala' et P.38)
I hear the big metals singing, (Kala' and P.38)
Broliques, monnaies, cocas, j'connais l'scénario (prêt à faire du sale pour le biff')
Guns, money, coke, I know the scenario (ready to do dirty work for cash)
J'suis pas d'bonne humeur, même quand j'fais bon ratio (monnaie, monnaie, toujours plus)
I'm not in a good mood, even when I make good profit (money, money, always more)
Les voisins, les passants, nous trouvent menaçants (nous trouvent menaçants)
The neighbors, the passersby, find us threatening (find us threatening)
J'me fais, trois-quatre splifs pour la collation (trois-quatre splifs pour la moulaga)
I roll myself three-four spliffs for a snack (three-four spliffs for the weed)
De-spee, tourne, tourne, tourne est en rotation (boxeur, y a R sous l'parka)
Speed, turns, turns, turns, it's in rotation (boxer, there's nothing under the parka)
On aime les gros teh, j'ai des relations (et trois coup d'files, y a d'la moulaga)
We like big joints, I have connections (and three phone calls, there's weed)
Marché Noir, énumération
Black Market, enumeration
Des fois, j'repense à l'époque d'la tess'
Sometimes, I think back to the hood days
Y avait pas le chauffage dans la caisse
There was no heating in the car
Demain, si tu veux l'faire, qui t'empêche?
Tomorrow, if you want to do it, who's stopping you?
Détermination, pacsons, j'encaisse
Determination, packs, I cash in
Tu m'as vu sur Paname faire d'l'acting
You saw me in Paris doing acting
Avant, j'étais dans les carjacking
Before, I was into carjacking
J'fais des millions, j'veux être le King
I'm making millions, I want to be the King
J'fais des millions, j'veux être le King

Des fois, j'repense à l'époque d'la tess'

carjacking — carjacking

Carjacking is an English word directly adopted into French slang, referring to the crime of stealing a car by force from its driver.

In the song, Bosh raps, "Avant, j'étais dans les carjacking," meaning "Before, I was involved in carjackings." This word is interesting because it's a direct English loanword used in a French rap context, highlighting the influence of global culture on modern French slang and the artist's past experiences.
