Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Grave by Eddy De Pretto from French to English.

Clench your teeth f*ck, show you're not a puppet

You can do what you want, go on blow up and set it on fire

Clench your fists kid, without hiding for nothing

You can keep it simple instead of freezing up on that bruise, hey

Clench your teeth f*ck, show you're not a puppet

You can do what you want, go on blow up and set it on fire

Clench your fists kid, without hiding for nothing

You can keep it simple instead of freezing up on that bruise, if you want

It's not a big deal if you don't wake up alone

If next to you it's a guy and you've got tears in your eyes

It's not a big deal if you thought you were way too young

For that sod*mite to stick it in you nicely without a fight

It's not a big deal if, when you sleep, you dream too much about the bed

That he touches you, that he adores you just like your girlfriend does

It's not a big deal if, again this morning when you woke up

You wake up with wood but the E in Gaëlle is missing

It's not a big deal if you caught yourself checking out dad

It's not a big deal if you try, meaning it was just like that

It's not a big deal if you glitch when your buddies show up bottomless

It's not a big deal if you're hot and if it happens every time

Without living it, well that's serious

And that's worse than keeping on lying about the fate we quietly deny ourselves

It's not a big deal if before you said it was sordid

That it was only on reality TV that it was possible

It's not a big deal if now it's become your reality

Coming back in your face while you're nearing forty

It's not a big deal if you slipped onto the porn next door

It's not a big deal if you tell yourself it was by accident

It's not a big deal if a d*ck pops up on every tab

It's really not a big deal even if you start getting hard

Clench your teeth f*ck, show you're not a puppet

You can do what you want, go on blow up and set it on fire

Clench your fists kid, without hiding for nothing

You can keep it simple instead of freezing up on that bruise, if you want

It's not a big deal if you like watching your neighbor

More than hands behind backs, a hand in the bag, on the sly

It's not a big deal if you call him my little bunny

And you brush his little thing that fits real well with yours

It's not a big deal if you feel passing urges

That stay in your head stronger than the one you pulled yesterday

It's not a big deal if you stress about the way

You're gonna tell your fam you're interested in backsides

It's not a big deal if you think about banging your best friend

It's not a big deal if you admit Sabrina's no longer pretty

It's not a big deal if you regret the two fingers you put in yourself

It's really not that big a deal if you stay focused on Jimmy

Without living it, well that's serious

And that's worse than keeping on lying about the fate we quietly deny ourselves

It's not a big deal if you blush hard in the locker room

'Cause you feel yourself getting all hard in front of theirs that's out in the open

It's not a big deal if you prefer the solitary age

To touch yourself in the booth once to shut it up

It's not a big deal if your very first time was too dark

It's not a big deal if your second time brings your dark side to light

It's not a big deal if your umpteenth time still isn't fertile

It's really not a big deal even if they insult you on your grave

Clench your teeth f*ck, show you're not a puppet

You can do what you want, go on blow up and set it on fire

Clench your fists kid, without hiding for nothing

You can keep it simple instead of freezing up on that bruise

Clench your teeth f*ck, show you're not a puppet

You can do what you want, go on blow up and set it on fire

Clench your fists kid, without hiding for nothing

You can keep it simple instead of freezing up on that bruise, if you want

Outro

Without living it, well that's serious

And that's worse than keeping on lying about the fate we quietly deny ourselves

And without living it, well that's serious

And that's worse

hey

Outro

Without living it, well that's serious

SONG MEANING

**“Grave” sounds like a dark title, yet Eddy de Pretto turns it into an anthem of light-hearted rebellion. Picture a coach in a boxing ring shouting “Clench your teeth, kid, you’re no puppet!” while the fighter in front of him is actually battling shame about his desires. Throughout the song, the French singer lists all the moments a man might panic about his sexuality—waking up next to another guy, day-dreaming in the locker room, falling down a porn rabbit hole—and he repeats, almost playfully, “Ce n’est pas grave” (It’s no big deal). The real problem, he warns, is not living those feelings, letting society’s rules freeze you “on that bruise” of self-denial.

With punchy beats and slam-style lyrics, Eddy de Pretto mixes tenderness with toughness. The chorus urges listeners to explode, set fire, try everything, while the verses sweep away every “forbidden” thought with a forgiving wink. In short, the song says: don’t let anyone script your identity, accept your attractions, and live out loud. The only thing truly “grave” is pretending to be someone else.
