Liberté Lyrics in English Soolking , Ouled El Bahdja

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Liberté by Soolking from French to English.
It seems that power can be bought
Freedom is all we have left
If the scenario repeats itself
We will be actors of peace
So fake, your speeches are so fake
Yeah, so fake
That we ended up getting used to it
But it's over
The glass is full
Down there, they shout
Can you hear their voices
The voices of those families
Full of sorrow
The voice that prays
For a better destiny
Excuse me for existing
Excuse my feelings
And if I say that I am
Happy with you, I'm lying
Excuse me for existing
Excuse my feelings
Give me back my freedom
I ask you kindly
Freedom, freedom, freedom
It's first in our hearts
Freedom, freedom, freedom
We're not afraid
Freedom, freedom, freedom
It's first in our hearts
Freedom, freedom, freedom
We're not afraid
They thought we were dead
They said good riddance
They thought we were afraid
Of that all black past
There's no one left
Just photos, lies
Just thoughts that gnaw at us
It's okay, take me there
Yes, there's no one left
There, there's only the people
Che Guevara, Matoub
Take me there
I write this one evening
For a new morning
Yes, I write to believe in it
The future is uncertain
Yes, I write because we are
We are hand in hand
I write because we are
The golden generation
Freedom, freedom, freedom
It's first in our hearts
Freedom, freedom, freedom
We're not afraid
Freedom, freedom, freedom
It's first in our hearts
Freedom, freedom, freedom
We're not afraid
Free the one who is still a hostage
Free the oppressed, there are those who remain in the court
Free those who are hostages
For us, it's all we have
We only have freedom
And we are the test
Oh government, and this fire doesn't go out
This is our message
Our final word
Soolking and the Sons of El Bahdja
Freedom, freedom, freedom
It's first in our hearts
Freedom, freedom, freedom
We're not afraid
Outro
Freedom, freedom, freedom
It's first in our hearts
Freedom, freedom, freedom
We're not afraid

SONG MEANING

What would you shout if the streets were your stage? In “Liberté,” French-Algerian singer Soolking teams up with the passionate supporters’ group Ouled El Bahdja to deliver an anthem that turns protest into poetry. The song fires back at leaders who believe “power can be bought,” while reminding us that real freedom lives inside our hearts. Over a driving beat, voices rise from “families full of sorrow,” demanding their share of hope and urging everyone to become “actors of peace.”

“La liberté, la liberté, la liberté” rings out like a football chant and a prayer at the same time. The lyrics jump between French, Arabic, and raw emotion, calling for the release of political prisoners, honoring revolutionary icons like Che Guevara and Matoub, and celebrating a “golden generation” that refuses to stay silent. It is a song for anyone who has ever felt ignored, yet still believes that tomorrow can shine brighter. Press play, raise your voice, and feel the power of music that refuses to give up on freedom.
