Maintenant Ou Jamais Lyrics in English Tal , Dry

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Maintenant Ou Jamais by Tal from French to English.
For all this, I gave everything, it's my story
As far as I know, I didn't steal anything, it's my story
How many times did I have to fall? I don't even count
I think it's now or never
All this time, I want to believe in it
All the time, even without having anything
Yet, everything pushes to believe
It's now or never
It's now, I feel it well
I'll surprise everyone like the have-nots
I rap for the people, for the good people
The one who works hard, lives by his fate and never complains
And as for those who called me a puppet
Tell them that now I'm making hits, a full-time job
Tal, do you know we will mark this era?
We will make classics, no one will say it was meh
All this time, I want to believe in it
All the time, even without having anything
Yet, everything pushes to believe
It's now or never
Kery James was the spearhead
It was too heavy, I could say we were proud of the man
And 113 at the Victoires de la Musique
They made the suburbs vibe so don't be amnesic
We entered the radio without knocking
We made all the brothers with locks tops vibe
Rim, Moko, marked the country
Now it's my turn, it has to explode all the way to the Pentagon
All this time, I want to believe in it
All the time, even without having anything
Yet, everything pushes to believe
It's now or never
I told myself, Landry, stop everything, you have to stop
I want to believe in it
Before going crazy, disappearing
Even without having anything
But I'm too proud, too, to give up everything
Everything pushes to believe
Life is too short
I think it's now or never
All this time, I want to believe in it
All the time, even without having anything
Yet, everything pushes to believe
It's now or never
All this time, I want to believe in it
All the time, even without having anything
Yet, everything pushes to believe
It's now or never
For all this, I gave everything, it's my story
As far as I know, I didn't steal anything, it's my story
How many times did I have to fall? I don't even count
I think it's now or never

SONG MEANING

Feel the rush of the present moment! In Maintenant Ou Jamais (“Now or Never”), Israeli-born pop star Tal teams up with French rapper Dry to deliver an adrenaline-charged pep talk for anyone chasing a dream. Over a driving beat, they shout that every slip, every empty pocket, and every doubter is fuel for the climb. The refrain pounds the idea home: I’ve always believed, even with nothing in my hands… it’s now or never!

The verses read like a victory lap mixed with a diary entry. Dry salutes French hip hop icons such as Kery James and 113, reminding us that legends once stood where he stands today. Tal echoes the sentiment, insisting she never stole her success; she earned it through falls she no longer bothers to count. Together they invite listeners to seize today, trust their grind, and turn setbacks into chart-topping comebacks. The song’s message is simple yet electrifying: if you want your story to matter, the perfect moment is right now.
