Translation of the song lyrics Tu valais mieux - La Fouine

Tu valais mieux (original)

Tu sais, petit frère, ils t’ont carottés
Alors, broliqué, tu veux les sauter
Les sirènes, les menottes et les parquets
Les larmes de la mama sur le parquet
Parfois, vaut mieux écouter son père avant d’se retrouver sans repères
Tu sais, ma petite sœur, tout ça, c’est pour leur plaire
Mais là, tu me parais bien vulgaire
Tu valais mieux, tu valais mieux, tu valais mieux que ça
Tu valais mieux, tu valais mieux, tu valais mieux que ça
Tu valais mieux, tu valais mieux, tu valais mieux que ça
Tu valais mieux, tu valais mieux
Tu valais mieux que ça
Tu valais mieux que ça
Tu sais, petit frère, ils ont trop parlé
Et moi, trop fier, j’ai du riposter
Les journaux, les médias s’en sont tous mêlé
Tristesse dans les yeux des gens que j’aimais
Parfois, vaut mieux écouter ses frères
Moi, j’ai jamais su m’laisser faire
On est tous perdants dans nos guerres
Je valais mieux que les faits divers
Je valais mieux, je valais mieux, je valais mieux que ça
Je valais mieux, je valais mieux, je valais mieux que ça
Je valais mieux, je valais mieux, je valais mieux que ça
Je valais mieux, je valais mieux
Je valais mieux que ça
Je valais mieux que ça
Perdus sur les réseaux sociaux
Wallay qu’on commente des photos
Et on s’insulte en 4G
Pas d’réseau pour s’réconcilier
On reste dans nos coins comme des incompris
On s’parle seulement quand on n’a plus d’batterie
On crache notre haine derrière nos écrans
Toute la nuit comme des chiens errants
On rêve de cette vie que l’on n’a pas
De tous ces amis que l’on n’a pas
De tous ces lieux où on ne va pas
De tous ces rêves que l’on attache
S’humilier, on ne pense qu'à ça
J’repense à la petite Aicha partie trop tôt
Paix à son âme, kho, comme elle, j’crois qu’on valait mieux qu'ça
On valait mieux que ça, on valait mieux que ça
On valait mieux que ça, on valait mieux que ça
On valait mieux que ça, on valait mieux que ça
On valait mieux que ça
On valait, on valait mieux que ça
On valait, on valait mieux que ça

Tu valais mieux (translation)

You know, little brother, they cored you
So freaked out, you wanna jump 'em
Sirens, handcuffs and floors
Mama's tears on the floor
Sometimes, it's better to listen to your father before finding yourself without bearings
You know, my little sister, it's all to please them
But now you seem very vulgar to me
You were better, you were better, you were better than this
You were better, you were better, you were better than this
You were better, you were better, you were better than this
You were better, you were better
You were better than that
You were better than that
You know, little brother, they talked too much
And I, too proud, had to fight back
The newspapers, the media all got involved
Sadness in the eyes of the people I loved
Sometimes it's better to listen to your brothers
Me, I never knew how to let myself go
We are all losers in our wars
I was worth more than the facts
I was better, I was better, I was better than this
I was better, I was better, I was better than this
I was better, I was better, I was better than this
I was better, I was better
I was better than that
I was better than that
Lost on social media
Wallay that we comment on photos
And we insult each other in 4G
No network to reconcile
We stay in our corners like misunderstood
We only talk to each other when we have no more battery
We spit our hate behind our screens
All night like stray dogs
We dream of this life we ​​don't have
Of all those friends we don't have
Of all those places we don't go
Of all these dreams that we attach
Humble yourself, that's all we think about
I think back to little Aicha who left too soon
Peace to her soul, kho, like her, I think we were better than that
We were better than that, we were better than that
We were better than that, we were better than that
We were better than that, we were better than that
We were better than that
We were worth, we were worth more than that
We were worth, we were worth more than that
