Le Carnivore Lyrics in English Mozart L'Opéra Rock

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Le Carnivore by Mozart L'Opéra Rock from French to English.
Even on our knees
We have to take the abuse
This world is crazy
With rage
We beg the heavens
If they trample us
But we get proud
When we dominate
Winner or submissive
I hate this challenge
Because deep down, I'm
Neither the prey nor the carnivore
I reject the law of the strongest
I don't want
To hit back
I can't
Offer my cheek
If we have to choose
Between slave and master
Tame or
Submit
I end the game
The inhuman game of being
Fleeing this aimless pack
Victim or soldier
I hate this fight
Because deep down, I'm
Neither the prey nor the carnivore
I reject the law of the strongest
I don't want
To hit back
I can't
Turn the other cheek
To the carnivores
Suffer again
Suffer again
Endure again
Neither the prey nor the carnivore
I reject the law of the strongest
I'm the sole master of my fate
Without me begging
Without them devouring me

SONG MEANING

“Le Carnivore” by Italian artist Mozart L’Opéra Rock throws us into a world where everyone is expected to be either the hunter or the hunted. The lyrics paint scenes of people forced to their knees, clawing for power, and begging the sky for help. Rage fills the air, yet victory feels as hollow as defeat. As the music swells, the singer declares: “I am neither prey nor carnivore” – a bold refusal to play this brutal game.

Rather than obeying the so-called “law of the strongest,” the narrator chooses a third path: self-mastery. He rejects revenge, refuses to “turn the other cheek,” and walks away from a fight that would turn him into the very monster he despises. The song’s message is clear and empowering: break free from toxic power struggles, claim control over your own fate, and never let a ruthless crowd define who you are.
