Maudits translates to "cursed ones" or "damned ones." It's a strong and evocative word that immediately sets a tone of defiance and hardship.
In the song, Lacrim uses it to describe himself and his community, saying, "C'est nous la cité, les maudits" (We are the city, the cursed ones). This highlights a sense of being outcast or disadvantaged, yet also proud and resilient, making it a powerful and memorable choice.
Get ready to dive into Lacrim's world with "REAL MADRID"! This track is a powerful anthem from the streets, where Lacrim asserts his dominance and respect. He talks about growing up tough, having "Rien à manger, j'avais la haine" [Nothing to eat, I had hate], which hardened his heart to "cœur est devenu du ciment" [my heart turned to cement].
Lacrim makes it clear that he's not to be messed with, stating, "Il est pas né celui qui va vouloir m'prendre une pièce" [He's not born, the one who will want to take a piece from me]. He boasts about his respect in the streets and even in prison, saying "Y a personne qui m'a touché, non. Personne m'a mis d'banane" [No one touched me, no. No one put a banana on me]. It's a blunt, in-your-face declaration of his power and influence, a real look into the mindset of someone who came from nothing and built an empire.
