Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Became by yame from French to English.

B*tch, it's been a long time that I've thought about how to feel good, I don't have your momentum

Never listen to the 'they say', those who talk haven't seen life through your world

I may speak in their language, but I have to believe that they only hear the language of violence

I slip into the ball without hands, you didn't see me stutter when I had to pass the slow

Sankara, Cheikh Anta, n*gga, I chose my role models, it's reliable like a German engine

In indie, without carats, without a dude, yes I do quer-cro much more than the big ones of your big ones

I don't watch them, they are not focused, I don't wait for the pass, they can't center

I'm bantou, don't talk to me about being dark-skinned, we didn't come here to show off

Put away your c, I have my cc

I turn the handle, I crumple time

I roll like someone is waiting for me

I hold the joint between my teeth, m'bah yeah, m'bah yeah

I take out the bike, di-di-di-da-da, I smoke the weed

I don't give a f*ck if it's dangerous, damn it

I see only bars, iron bars

The bike screams and I come out of hell on a big iron, well yeah

I take out the bike, di-di-di-didi, I smoke the weed, hum

I don't give a f*ck, it's dangerous, damn it

I see only bars, iron bars

The bike screams and I come out of hell on a big iron, well yeah, well yeah

The akra helps to focus

The hate that I feel in my thoughts, hum

In this marked business, yeah

I take out the bike-cane wou-ouh

I take out the bike-cane wou-ou-ah-ah

Cane, di-di-di-da-da, I smoke the weed

I take out the bike, di-di-di-di-di-di, I smoke the weed

I take out the bike, di-di-di-da-da, I smoke the weed, han

I don't give a f*ck, it's dangerous, damn it

I see only bars, iron bars

The bike screams and I come out of hell on a big iron, well yeah

I take out the bike, di-di-di-didi, didi-i-i, han

I don't give a f*ck, it's dangerous, damn it

I see only bars, iron bars

The bike screams and I come out of hell on a big iron, well yeah, well yeah

Well yeah, well yeah

Hmm, hmm, hmm

SONG MEANING

Became feels like a midnight motorcycle ride through the streets of Paris: loud, fearless and fueled by a burning need for freedom. yame raps in French about shrugging off gossip, choosing revolutionary heroes like Sankara and Cheikh Anta as role models, and staying independent even when the music “business” tries to box her in. She paints a world of metal bars and violent language, yet refuses to let it cage her spirit. Instead, she hops on her bécane (slang for motorbike), lights up, and blasts out of “hell” on her own terms.

The roaring engine becomes a symbol of escape. Every rev says, I will not slow down for anyone. The repeated refrain “j’m’en bats les couilles” (“I couldn’t care less”) captures her rebellious confidence, while the smoke and speeding metal hint at both danger and liberation. In short, the song celebrates self-determination: ignore the naysayers, choose your own idols, and if the world builds iron bars around you, kick-start your bike, tear through the night and create your own road to freedom.
