Intro

Yeah, we really need to think about later

Where I'm from, all roads lead to jail

What do you want me to do, besides burning the cellophane?

I give a shout-out to all our fans

Without you, it's the end

Verse 1

I smoke joints late, and I do it again in the morning

My darling, I'm nothing like Aladdin, look at our scarred faces

Marked by life, the street didn't miss us

And then I smoke to calm my nerves

In rap, we came to clean house

I dream of a paid-off villa for my mother

And a bullet in the head for the cowards

Bro, with Dinaz we tear everything up, they're all mad

Look at the journey, in a little while we'll be everywhere

In a little while we'll be everywhere, your girl at an orgy

I empty the cartridges, we meet at the source

Chorus 1

I just go round in circles, one struggle after another

No more hanging around, I'm handling my business, I'm handling my business

I just go round in circles, one struggle after another

No more hanging around, I'm handling my business, I'm handling my business

Postchorus 1

I'm handling my business, yeah, f*ck it

It's a sea view or sh*t

If I escape, I'll take all my brothers with me

Now I'm in the block, we've declared war on each other

We declared war on each other

Verse 2

Look at all these kilos, on the highway check out the driving

I know how to talk to ladies, we've controlled the area for a long time

She wants to hold my hands, often in cuffs

I stay with my people, stuck in my hood

Exterminate them, they want to f*ck you over, go on, go light them up

In the studio, in smoke

Pure coke in the projects, the cops keep investigating

We're not here to show off like those f*ggots

They want things to go to sh*t, well, it's gonna blow up

I get wasted, I see my old man going into debt

You talk to me about working, you're tired of scamming

I'll come spray you in front of your glass of rosé

I don't give a f*ck about your advice, right now I'm being chased

I shift into sixth gear, they end up in the ditch

Chorus 2

I just go round in circles, one struggle after another

No more hanging around, I'm handling my business, I'm handling my business

I just go round in circles, one struggle after another

No more hanging around, I'm handling my business, I'm handling my business

Postchorus 2

I'm handling my business, yeah, f*ck it

It's a sea view or sh*t

If I escape, I'll take all my brothers with me

Now I'm in the block, we've declared war on each other

We declared war on each other

Chorus 3

I just go round in circles, one struggle after another

No more hanging around, I'm handling my business, I'm handling my business

I just go round in circles, one struggle after another

No more hanging around, I'm handling my business, I'm handling my business

Postchorus 3

I'm handling my business, yeah, f*ck it

It's a sea view or sh*t

If I escape, I'll take all my brothers with me

Now I'm in the block, we've declared war on each other

We declared war on each other

Outro

Bro, I'm using

My d*ck wakes up for big sums

You need to advise me

I'll stay with you if you console me

Bro, I'm using

My d*ck wakes up for big sums

You need to advise me

I'll stay with you if you console me

shtar — prison

Shtar is a French slang term for "prison" or "jail". It's a word rooted in the argot (slang) of the streets, making it particularly interesting for learners who want to understand authentic, contemporary French.

In the context of the song, the line "Chez moi tous les chemins mènent au shtar" (At my place, all roads lead to prison) paints a vivid picture of the harsh realities and limited options faced in certain environments. It's a powerful and evocative word that immediately sets a gritty tone for the song.

Djadja & Dinaz are two brothers, and they built this hook out of a shrug. "Fini d'zoner, j'fais mes affaires, j'fais mes affaires" (No more hanging around, I'm handling my business) is the voice of someone who has stopped drifting and started earning, and the chorus keeps it blunt: "C'est vue sur la mer ou la merde" (It's a sea view or sh*t). In their world there is no middle option, just the villa by the water or the gutter.

The verses fill in why. "Chez moi tous les chemins mènent au shtar" (Where I'm from, all roads lead to jail) sets the odds, and what follows is weed smoke, cops on every corner, a chase that ends with someone in a ditch and a father sinking into debt. Sitting in the middle of all that is one soft wish, "J'rêve d'une villa payée pour ma mère" (I dream of a paid-off villa for my mother), right before a threat aimed at cowards. Even the escape fantasy is a group plan: "Si j'm'évade, avec moi j'prends tous mes frères" (If I escape, I'll take all my brothers with me).
