Victime De Ma Victoire Lyrics in English Mozart L'Opéra Rock

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Victime De Ma Victoire by Mozart L'Opéra Rock from French to English.

I thought I was the chosen one

By stealing my story

But I lost myself to win

To win without virtue

You triumph without glory

Honor's worth more than the trophy

It's ridiculous

No scruples

You gotta triumph

If they idolize you

No scruples

Let yourself be carried

But the mirror

Avoids my gaze

So it won't see

That I'm a victim of my victory

Yeah, I admit I'm beaten

By the taste of power

Reached the top without rising

I'm an odd prince

With trivial talent

Make others love me without loving

It's ridiculous

No scruples

You gotta triumph

If they idolize you

No scruples

Let yourself be carried

But the mirror

Avoids my gaze

So it won't see

That I'm a victim of my victory

Victim of my victory

Pa, pa pa

Pa pa pa pa

Pa pa pa pa pa pa pa pa

Pa pa pa pa pa

Pa pa pa pa pa pa pa

Victim of my victory

My glory is trivial

It's ridiculous

No scruples

You gotta triumph

If they idolize you

No scruples

Let yourself be carried

But the mirror

Avoids my gaze

So it won't see

That I'm a victim of my victory

Victim of my victory

It's ridiculous

No scruples

Why triumph

If they idolize you

No scruples

Why carry me

But my pride

Is in mourning

So I won't see anymore

That I'm a victim

Of my victory

Victim of my victory

I lost for history

SONG MEANING

“Victime De Ma Victoire” dives into the glittering but hollow world of a man who reached the summit of fame only to discover it is a lonely peak.

Through punchy lines like “Je suis victime de ma victoire” and “L’honneur vaut mieux que le trophée,” the singer admits that he chased applause without conscience, traded integrity for quick triumph, and now feels trapped by the very success he craved. Mirrors avoid his gaze, crowds adore an image he no longer recognizes, and the trophies that once gleamed now feel dérisoires—ridiculously small against the cost of his soul. The song is an energetic confession that warns: if you sprint toward glory without virtue, you may win the race yet lose yourself along the way.
