Peine & Pitié Lyrics in English Vitaa

Peine & Pitié paints the portrait of a woman who has finally drawn the line. Vitaa looks straight at someone who once called her family but disappeared the moment success—or trouble—showed up. She admits she has an ego, yet every sharp lyric is a response to the other person’s hypocrisy. Between biting sarcasm and ironic well-wishes (“Joyeuses fêtes et bonnes années au pluriel”), she flips back and forth between two feelings that sound similar in French: peine (sorrow) and pitié (pity). One moment she feels genuinely hurt, the next she can only roll her eyes and feel sorry for them.

At its core, the song is an empowerment anthem. Vitaa refuses guilt trips, refuses to beg for affection, and chooses to move ahead solo. The repeated chant “Pitié, pitié… Peine et pitié” becomes a rallying cry: you can’t stop people from disappointing you, but you can decide whether their actions will leave you broken or merely mildly amused. With clever wordplay and a rhythmic vocal delivery, Vitaa turns emotional turbulence into a confident statement of independence.
