Le Mal Est Fait Lyrics in English Casseurs Flowters

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Le Mal Est Fait by Casseurs Flowters from French to English.
Been sick of myself for too long
You had to pay the price
And tonight I'm closing the loop
I tell it all to f*ck off, and anyone who loves me bails
I never want to drag you down with me again when I dive
You deserved better lies
And if I had to lay my cards on the table
I couldn't even sort it out
Only the kind-hearted guys know it
Fine words bind more than just the ones who hear them
Stop the hemorrhage, you're not bulletproof
I see you're running out of breath, I cut the bluff
I never want to do again what morals condemn
Everything that pulls me toward you now pushes me away
You're straight, loyal, real, reliable
I'm the worst of all
The damage is done, the damage is done
The damage is done, your man's weak, your man's ugly, the damage is done
The damage is done, the damage is done
The damage is done, your man's weak, your man's ugly, the damage is done
I f*ck faceless chicks
Looking for a jolt of life
I turn our plans into mirages
Our future together is only a utopia
I'm putting the final touch on my masterpiece
By leaving, am I showing wisdom?
If one last time I throw us into the test
All my double games, it's time they stopped
Only like that could I one day buy myself some ethics
And give you a chance to keep living the way you deserve
Write me off, you shouldn't even hesitate
We love each other but we dodge each other, I'm a top-grade bastard
Having an honest guy, yeah, you deserve better
Keeping my balance is perilous for me
Even if cutting me out of your life scares you
Never take me back for a trial run, it's dead
The damage is done, the damage is done
The damage is done, your man's weak, your man's ugly, the damage is done
The damage is done, the damage is done
The damage is done, your man's weak, your man's ugly, the damage is done
Sorry babe, I know it scares you, but I don't know who I am
I don't know which dream I'm chasing or which nightmare I'm fleeing
I'd do anything to reassure you, but I don't know who I am
I can't tell right from wrong anymore, I gotta sort it out
Lies, sex, drugs, cheating
I don't know what kind of evil eats at me
I've played the autistic too long
She'll be an accomplice if she wipes the slate clean
Love isn't the promised land
One slip and everybody sinks
Love isn't the promised land
One slip and everybody sinks
The damage is done, the damage is done
The damage is done, your man's weak, your man's ugly, the damage is done
The damage is done, the damage is done
The damage is done, your man's weak, your man's ugly, the damage is done

SONG MEANING

“Le Mal Est Fait” plunges us into the guilty conscience of a man who finally admits he is his own worst enemy. Casseurs Flowters paint a brutally honest self-portrait: the narrator feels disgusted with himself, knows he has drained the woman he loves, and decides the only honorable move is to walk away. His confession mixes rap bravado with raw vulnerability, jumping from self-loathing jokes like “your man is weak and ugly” to sincere apologies. Every line circles the same realization: the damage is done, and no sweet words can undo it.

Beneath the punchy hooks lies a lesson about toxic cycles. The song contrasts the partner’s loyalty and integrity with the rapper’s lies, casual hookups, and moral free-fall. He recognizes that if she forgives him, she becomes an accomplice to his downfall, so he urges her to cut ties and chase the happier future she deserves. “Le Mal Est Fait” is both a breakup anthem and a cautionary tale: once trust is broken, love can send everyone “plunging” unless someone is brave enough to stop the hemorrhage.
