(AriBeatz)
(AriBeatz)
Je l'avais dit, ce qui est à moi va brûler
I had said it, what's mine will burn
Je l'ai prédit, un soir de lundi, il va s'faire fumer
I predicted it, one Monday night, he's gonna get smoked
J'ai 200 frères, j'ai qu'un ami, il est chromé
I have 200 brothers, I only have one friend, it's chromed
S'il t'explose, il pourra pas me dénoncer
If it blows you up, it won't be able to snitch on me
J'ai ce qu'il voulait
I have what he wanted
J'suis ce qu'il revait
I'm what he dreamed of
Fais ce qu'il fallait
Did what was necessary
Mon cœur affalé
My heart slumped
J'peux pas trop t'en parler
I can't really talk to you about it
Jack Miel sous le palais
Jack Honey under the palate
Pas comme une pute, sur toi j'éteins la lumière et puis fin
Not like a b*tch, with you I turn off the light and then it's over
Mais qu'est ce qu'il valait?
But what was he worth?
Y a pas que Dieu qui a vu qui t'étais
It's not just God who saw who you were
J'ai fait ce qu'il fallait
I did what was necessary
Pour qui tu te prenais
Who did you think you were?
En cellule l'été
In a cell in the summer
J'rêvais de t'exploser la tête, devant tout le rain-té
I dreamed of blowing your head off, in front of the whole neighborhood
J'sais que j'suis branché
I know I'm connected
Ils m'ont filoché, bouché
They tailed me, blocked me
J'sens qu'il veulent me faucher
I feel like they want to mow me down
Mode S, ils me font trop chier
S mode, they p*ss me off too much
Mon cœur en est touché
My heart is touched by it
Le même, riche ou fauché, j'vais le tuer
The same one, rich or broke, I'm gonna kill him
J'vais le tuer
I'm gonna kill him
J'vais le tuer, gros, boum
I'm gonna kill him, bro, boom
Quand lui, faut le faire
When it's him, it has to be done
Sur mon père, que la nuit
On my father, only at night
Je n'ai que lui dans ma tête
I only have him in my head
Oh oui, faut qu'il paie
Oh yes, he has to pay
Pour que j'dorme en paix
So I can sleep in peace
Faut qu'il paie, blah
He has to pay, blah
Faut qu'il paie
He has to pay
Pour que j'vive en paix
So I can live in peace
Oh oui, faut qu'il paie
Oh yes, he has to pay
La Californie
California
C'est la couleur de ma paye
It's the color of my pay
J'dors au 40ème
I sleep on the 40th floor
J'ressens la chaleur du soleil
I feel the warmth of the sun
Oui ma jolie
Yes my pretty
Oui ma jolie, y a de l'oseille
Yes my pretty, there's money
Mais j'ai des ennemis
But I have enemies
A tuer quand y'a ma mère
To kill when my mother's there
Sale fils, police, je mise sur l'avocat
Dirty son, police, I bet on the lawyer
J'sais pas, j'vends pas, j'tue pas, j'vends des CD
I don't know, I don't sell, I don't kill, I sell CDs
J'dors mal, j'mange plus
I sleep badly, I don't eat anymore
J'nique des mères dans les affaires
I f*ck mothers in business
J'ai pas le temps de perdre du temps
I don't have time to waste time
Autant longtemps qu'on paiera dans le biff
As long as we'll pay in the dough
J'sais que j'suis branché
I know I'm connected
Ils m'ont filoché, bouché
They tailed me, blocked me
J'sens qu'il veulent me faucher
I feel like they want to mow me down
Mode S, ils me font trop chier
S mode, they p*ss me off too much
Mon cœur en est touché
My heart is touched by it
Le même, riche ou fauché, j'vais le tuer
The same one, rich or broke, I'm gonna kill him
J'vais le tuer
I'm gonna kill him
J'vais le tuer, gros, boum
I'm gonna kill him, bro, boom
Quand lui, faut le faire
When it's him, it has to be done
Sur mon père, que la nuit
On my father, only at night
Je n'ai que lui dans ma tête
I only have him in my head
Oh oui, faut qu'il paie
Oh yes, he has to pay
Pour que j'dorme en paix
So I can sleep in peace
Faut qu'il paie, blah
He has to pay, blah
Faut qu'il paie
He has to pay
Pour que j'vive en paix
So I can live in peace
Oh oui, faut qu'il paie
Oh yes, he has to pay

filoché — tailed / followed
Filoché comes from the verb "filocher," which means to tail or follow someone, often in a surveillance context. It's a less common, more colloquial term than simply "suivre" (to follow).
In the lyrics, "Ils m'ont filoché, bouché" suggests that the authorities or enemies have been closely following and cornering the artist. This word adds a layer of street-level realism and tension to the narrative, making it an intriguing choice for learners.
