Enfants De La Patrie (Audio) Lyrics in English Gims , Naps

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Enfants De La Patrie (Audio) by Gims from French to English.
J'avance dans l'noir depuis des décennies
I've been moving in the dark for decades
Malgré les mines qu'ils disséminent
Despite the mines they scatter
J'traverse la ville dans un Mansory
I cross the city in a Mansory
Bientôt j'suis sur une série
Soon I'm on a series
T'entends, ça deal T'entends, ça tire
You hear, they're dealing, you hear, they shoot
T'entends, ça dit Meugui il l'a dit
You hear, they say Meugui said it
Mais c'est quoi l'délire, mais c'est quoi sa vie
But what's the deal, what's his life
J'dors pas, j'pense qu'à mettre des gifles
I don't sleep, I only think about slapping
J'avance tout droit, pas de nostalgie
I move straight ahead, no nostalgia
Tout casser, c'est d'ça qu'il s'agit
Smash everything, that's what it's about
Je snap' quand Paris s'agite
I snap when Paris gets restless
À l'instinct, pas de stratégie
By instinct, no strategy
Préviens-nous, la balle est partie
Warn us, the bullet's gone
Allons enfants d'la patrie
Let's go, children of the homeland
On m'a parlé, mais j'ai rien compris
They spoke to me, but I understood nothing
Avec c'que j'ai fait, j'ai d'quoi partir
With what I've done, I've got enough to leave
Préviens-nous, la balle est partie
Warn us, the bullet's gone
Allons enfants d'la patrie
Let's go, children of the homeland
On m'a parlé, mais j'ai rien compris
They spoke to me, but I understood nothing
Avec c'que j'ai fait, j'ai d'quoi partir
With what I've done, I've got enough to leave
J'suis sur la voie rapide dans la Maserati
I'm in the fast lane in the Maserati
Première chanson gravé sur Verbatim
First song burned on a Verbatim
J'aimais pas trop écouter la daronne
I didn't like listening to my mom much
Des fois ça m'a coûté
Sometimes it cost me
Et en toute sincérité, tu m'as manqué la vérité
And honestly, you hid the truth from me
La plata à Berlusconi, j'suis léw̓e comme Rosny
Money like Berlusconi, I'm high like Rosny
Okay many, j'fais un petit pétou à Bali
Okay, man, I smoke a little joint in Bali
Elle m'caline, elle m'fait des caresses
She cuddles me, she caresses me
La tigresse elle aime la vitesse
The tigress, she loves speed
On va s'tailler, j'ai fais les mapess'
We're gonna bounce, I've packed the bags
Préviens-nous, la balle est partie
Warn us, the bullet's gone
Allons enfants d'la patrie
Let's go, children of the homeland
On m'a parlé, mais j'ai rien compris
They spoke to me, but I understood nothing
Avec c'que j'ai fait, j'ai d'quoi partir
With what I've done, I've got enough to leave
Préviens-nous, la balle est partie
Warn us, the bullet's gone
Allons enfants d'la patrie
Let's go, children of the homeland
On m'a parlé, mais j'ai rien compris
They spoke to me, but I understood nothing
Avec c'que j'ai fait, j'ai d'quoi partir
With what I've done, I've got enough to leave
Lalidédéa, non, c'est pas Instagram
Lalidédéa, no, it's not Instagram
Prêt pour quelques grammes
Ready for a few grams
Popo dans le crack
Po-po in the crack
Lalidédéa, non, c'est pas Instagram
Lalidédéa, no, it's not Instagram
Tout pour quelques grammes

Préviens-nous, la balle est partie

On m'a parlé, mais j'ai rien compris

Avec c'que j'ai fait, j'ai d'quoi partir
