Gabriel, call me back
They don't like you because they can't do
Everything you do
You have to know that jealous people want to be like you
They envy you but they will come just to harass you
A star doesn't go out and you're the one above their head
It's not their fault
Their hearts are evil, we already know that
I admit I wonder
What did I do to them to make them do all this to me?
And sometimes it itches when I think back to tomorrow
I can still hear those words that hurt, that have entered me
It's free, it hurts, I paid dearly for the damage
Obviously, it's only you who wants my good
I'm here to cross, I'm your brother, I'm not going to look for you there
I'm tired of putting up with it, I'm your sister, wipe away my tears
Turn around, look at everything you've done
The hardest part is already done
I feel like it's never enough
I don't know if I can continue
They don't know me, they just judge me
Leave it, forget it, it's to make you doubt
In front of the mirror, I want you to rehearse with me
If I don't do it for myself
No one will do it for me
I'm tired of hearing them criticize me
Sitting at the back of the classroom, head in the air, I want to escape
I was too nice to them, they thought I was stupid
Only you understand when I say I have a headache
They did dirty things to me, I close in on myself
I've experienced this too and scars on my back
They will say a lot of things, but that's just words
Don't forget who you are
Don't worry, I know them
Do nothing, do nothing but talk
You know about you, I'm getting dirty
In my arms, you've grown up
I'm here to cross, I'm your brother, I'm not going to look for you there
I'm tired of putting up with it, I'm your sister, wipe away my tears
Turn around, look at everything you've done
The hardest part is already done
I feel like it's never enough
I don't know if I can continue
They don't know me, they just judge me
Leave it, forget it, it's to make you doubt
In front of the mirror, I want you to rehearse with me
If I don't do it for myself
No one will do it for me
Ta-ta-ta-la-la-la-ta-ta-la-la-la
Ta-ta-ta-la-la-la-la-la
Ta-ta-ta-la-la-la, ta-ta-ta-la-la-la
Ta-ta-ta-la-la-la-la-la

t'harcelerto harass you

T'harceler means "to harass you". While "harass" is a strong word, its use in this song is particularly impactful and relatable.

In the context of the song, it refers to the negative attention and criticism that comes with success. The lyrics state, "Ils t'envient mais ils viendront juste pour t'harceler" (They envy you but they will just come to harass you), highlighting the often-unseen struggles that come with being in the spotlight. It's a powerful word that captures the emotional toll of dealing with detractors.

Have you ever felt like everyone's judging you, or that your efforts are never quite enough? Franglish's song "Fam" featuring Merveille is all about that feeling, and the incredible importance of having someone in your corner who truly gets it. It's like a conversation between two people, maybe siblings or very close friends, who are dealing with the negativity and jealousy of others.

The lyrics really hit home when they talk about people not liking you "parce qu'ils peuvent pas faire / Tout c'que tu fais" [because they can't do / Everything you do]. It's a blunt reminder that sometimes, jealousy is the root of criticism. The song encourages you to remember your worth, telling you that "Une étoile s'éteint pas et t'es celle au-dessus de leur te-tê" [A star doesn't go out and you're the one above their heads]. And when those hurtful words get to you, the song offers comfort, with lines like "J'suis là pour traverser, j'suis ton frère, j'vais pas t'cher-lâ" [I'm here to get through it, I'm your brother, I won't let you go] and "J'en ai marre d'supporter, j'suis ta sœur, essuie mes larmes" [I'm tired of putting up with it, I'm your sister, wipe my tears]. It's a powerful message about self-belief and the unbreakable bond of family or chosen family, reminding you to look in the mirror and repeat, "Si j'le fais pas pour moi / Personne ne le fera pour moi" [If I don't do it for myself / No one will do it for me].
