Panamera Lyrics in English by Bramsito
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Panamera by Bramsito from French to English.
J'n'ai jamais trahi l'honneur pour l'appât du gain
I've never betrayed honor for the lure of gain
J'ai jamais trahi les codes pour décevoir les miens
I've never betrayed the codes to disappoint my own
J'me demande pourquoi la faim est liée à mon teint
I wonder why hunger is linked to my skin color
Si dans ce monde où l'on vit, y a-t-il vraiment une fin?
If in this world where we live, is there really an end?
J'avance à grande vitesse et je n'ai pas de freins
I move at high speed and I have no brakes
Je fais que mon chemin, je m'en suis jamais plaint
I just follow my path, I've never complained
Et j'oublie pas tous ceux qui m'ont tendu la main
And I don't forget all those who offered me a hand
Juste pour pouvoir ensuite couper la mienne en vain
Just to be able then to cut mine off in vain
Paraît-il qu'on est maudit? Papa m'a dit que nous sommes des incompris
Is it said that we're cursed? Dad told me that we're misunderstood
Le paradis nous donne envie mais l'enfer n'est qu'à quelques pas de nos désirs
Paradise tempts us but hell is just a few steps from our desires
Pendant quelques secondes j'oublie ce qui se raconte, on en reparlera
For a few seconds I forget what's being said, we'll talk about it later
Et j'regarde les nuages, avions et leur sillage dans ma Panamera
And I look at the clouds, planes and their contrails in my Panamera
Je laisse le monde tourner en rond, et qui vivra verra
I let the world go round in circles, and time will tell
Et j'augmente le volume pour oublier ceci dans ma Panamera
And I turn up the volume to forget this in my Panamera
Quelques années de cela, je ne valais rien
A few years ago, I was worth nothing
Tu peux me juger mais au fond, je m'en bas les reins
You can judge me but deep down, I don't give a f*ck
Les potes me voyaient comme un sombre galérien
My friends saw me as a dark struggler
J'étais juste visionnaire mais les gens voyaient rien
I was just a visionary but people saw nothing
Suis-je important si j'me repose au père Lachaise?
Am I important if I rest at Père Lachaise?
Mais l'esclavage mental fera de nous des chèvres
But mental slavery will make us goats
Mais dans ce monde tu sais, y a vraiment rien de sain
But in this world, you know, there's really nothing healthy
Tu théorises, on fera pas de dessins
You theorize, we won't spell it out
Paraît-il qu'on est maudit? Papa m'a dit que nous sommes des incompris
Is it said that we're cursed? Dad told me that we're misunderstood
Le paradis nous donne envie mais l'enfer n'est qu'à quelques pas de nos désirs
Paradise tempts us but hell is just a few steps from our desires
Pendant quelques secondes j'oublie ce qui se raconte, on en reparlera
For a few seconds I forget what's being said, we'll talk about it later
Et j'regarde les nuages, avions et leur sillage dans ma Panamera
And I look at the clouds, planes and their contrails in my Panamera
Je laisse le monde tourner en rond, et qui vivra verra
I let the world go round in circles, and time will tell
Et j'augmente le volume pour oublier ceci dans ma Panamera
And I turn up the volume to forget this in my Panamera
Dans ma Panamera
In my Panamera
Pendant quelques secondes j'oublie ce qui se raconte, on en reparlera
For a few seconds I forget what's being said, we'll talk about it later
Et j'regarde les nuages, avions et leur sillage dans ma Panamera
And I look at the clouds, planes and their contrails in my Panamera
Je laisse le monde tourner en rond, et qui vivra verra
I let the world go round in circles, and time will tell
Et j'augmente le volume pour oublier ceci dans ma Panamera
And I turn up the volume to forget this in my Panamera
Pendant quelques secondes j'oublie ce qui se raconte, on en reparlera
For a few seconds I forget what's being said, we'll talk about it later
Et j'regarde les nuages, avions et leur sillage dans ma Panamera
And I look at the clouds, planes and their contrails in my Panamera
Je laisse le monde tourner en rond, et qui vivra verra
I let the world go round in circles, and time will tell
Et j'augmente le volume pour oublier ceci dans ma Panamera
And I turn up the volume to forget this in my Panamera

Did you like this lyrics translation?
galérien — galley slave
Galérien literally translates to "galley slave," referring to someone condemned to row a galley ship. It's a strong, somewhat archaic word that evokes hardship and forced labor.
In the context of the song, Bramsito uses it metaphorically to describe how his friends once saw him as a "sombre galérien" (a dark galley slave), implying he was struggling, working tirelessly, and perhaps without much hope or recognition. He contrasts this past perception with his current success and his own self-image as a "visionnaire," making the word particularly impactful.
