La Vie Est Belle Lyrics in English Nassi

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song La Vie Est Belle by Nassi from French to English.
My banker thinks I could use some help
While my shrink says I mostly just need to be loved
Time passing always brings us face-to-face with ourselves
If I'm not the one who'll solve my problems
They told me, you're overthinking too much
Try to see more clearly how
Life's beautiful, life opens its arms to you
I told myself, yeah life's beautiful
Maybe for you, living like in a dream
Clad in gold and silk
Now that's a beautiful life
Now that's a beautiful life
Mom saw me becoming an architect or a doctor
I grind at the factory, my boss sees me as a nobody
Dad told me being a musician isn't a job
Let me close my eyes, at least till tomorrow
They told me, you're overthinking too much
They told me, you're overthinking too much
Try to see more clearly how
Life's beautiful, life opens its arms to you
I told myself, yeah life's beautiful
Maybe for you, living like in a dream
Clad in gold and silk
Now that's a beautiful life
Now that's a beautiful life
They told me, you're overthinking too much
Try to see more clearly how
Life's beautiful, life opens its arms to you
I told myself, yeah life's beautiful
Maybe for you, living like in a dream
Clad in gold and silk
Now that's a beautiful life
Now that's a beautiful life

SONG MEANING

Does everyone really live the same "beautiful life"? In La Vie Est Belle, Nassi plays with this familiar French expression while showing how different it can feel depending on your situation. The singer is squeezed between a worried banker, an over-analytical therapist, disappointed parents, and an unappreciative boss. Each of them claims to know what he needs, yet none truly understands his daily grind at the factory or his dream of being a musician. Through catchy hooks and witty lines, Nassi questions the easy optimism of people who seem to glide through life "dressed in gold and silk," reminding us that telling someone to stop overthinking is not the same as helping them find real happiness.

Despite the frustration, the chorus repeats La vie est belle like a mantra, hinting that beauty is still possible if we define success on our own terms. The song invites listeners to look past society’s ready-made labels and discover their personal path. It is both a tongue-in-cheek critique of superficial positivity and a subtle call to keep dreaming, even when the world keeps saying, "You worry too much."
