Translation of the song lyrics Violence in the Street - Broussaï

Violence in the Street (original)

Think positive
Recherche en toi toutes les bonnes ondes / Hear weh di man say
Live positive
Partage les pour qu’elles nous inondent
Be positive
Positive, positive, that’s the only way we have to live
Quand ta vie va mal, que tout semble perdu
Que devant toi l’horizon limpide devient confus
Ta route prend un virage, c’est le dérapage
Les choses prennent une tournure inattendue
Mais la lumière va resurgir quelque part
A nouveau ton destin va te sourire tôt ou tard
Le meilleur rempart contre le désespoir
Regarder droit devant, c’est un nouveau départ
Ghetto youth just live it as it is
And live it positive
Keep the progression going and bun the negative
Just live it as it is
And live it positive
Babylon dem want it all
Anno care how di people dem live
Just live it positive
The system dem a rig
Too much grave dem a dig
Treat di people like pig
Corruption dem a siv
Well righteousness we live
Rastafari is the ultimate
Think positive
Recherche en toi toutes les bonnes ondes (Hear weh di man say)
Live positive
Partage les pour qu’elles nous inondent
Be positive
Positive, positive, that’s the only way we have to live
Now the system is design to oppress the people
That’s why me tell the ghetto youths dem bun the evil
Babylon wi come fi crush dem like a weeble
Suh mi find out dem mentally feeble
Tell dem stop for awhile
Find out negativity it only destroy the child
We see dem come fi corrupt maam earth
Dem waan fi pollute the soil
But anyway
Quand les embûches sèment des contretemps
Je relève la tête, l'âme d’un combattant
L’orage disparaît, le soleil éclatant
C’est la renaissance, comme une fleur au printemps
Voir ton sourire le matin, me levant
Ta joie me saisit, me rend tellement vivant
Quel est ce parfum qui flotte avec le vent?
Me pousse à me battre pour aller de l’avant
Dans la boue, on porte sa vie tel un fardeau
La prendre du bon côté, c’est un cadeau
Un simple caillou peut devenir le joyau
Suis-je capable de réécrire tout seul le scénario?
Live, live, live up, trust in yourself you can make it too
Damn what they say, it’s what you do
Rise, rise, rise up, look around if you feel blue
There’s always a caring hand to help you through
Think positive
Recherche en toi toutes les bonnes ondes (Hear weh di man say)
Live positive
Partage les pour qu’elles nous inondent
Be positive
Positive, positive, that’s the only way we have to live
Live it up
Don’t give it up
Ghetto youths big it up
No big gun mi nuh wan u see fi dig it up
Just live it up
Don’t give it up
Reggae music haffi big it up
A di truth I
King shango and Broussai
Meck dem know we nuh loose I
Cause di whole world choose I
Red hot yeah

Violence in the Street (translation)

think positive
Look inside yourself for all the good vibes / Hear weh di man say
Live positive
Share them so that they flood us
Be positive
Positive, positive, that's the only way we have to live
When your life is going badly, all seems lost
That in front of you the limpid horizon becomes confused
Your road takes a turn, it's a skid
Things take an unexpected turn
But the light will come out somewhere
Again your destiny will smile on you sooner or later
The best bulwark against despair
Looking straight ahead is a fresh start
Ghetto youth just live it as it is
And live it positive
Keep the progress going and bun the negative
Just live it as it is
And live it positive
Babylon dem want it all
Anno care how di people dem live
Just live it positive
The system dem a rig
Too much serious dem a dig
Treat di people like pig
Corruption dem a siv
Well righteousness we live
Rastafari is the ultimate
think positive
Look inside you for all the good vibes (Hear weh di man say)

Suh mi find out dem mentally feeble
Tell dem stop for a while
Find out negativity it only destroy the child
We see dem come fi corrupt maam earth
Dem waan fi pollute the soil
But anyway
When pitfalls sow setbacks
I raise my head, the soul of a fighter
The storm disappears, the sun shines
It's rebirth, like a flower in spring
See your smile in the morning, waking me up
Your joy grabs me, makes me so alive
What is this fragrance that floats with the wind?
Pushes me to fight to move on
In the mud, you carry your life like a burden
Take it on the bright side, it's a gift
A simple pebble can become the jewel
Am I able to rewrite the script on my own?
Live, live, live up, trust in yourself you can make it too
Damn what they say, it's what you do
Rise, rise, rise up, look around if you feel blue
There's always a caring hand to help you through
think positive
Look inside you for all the good vibes (Hear weh di man say)
