Intro(original) |
| «Now is the time to make real the promises of democracy» |
| Ouais gros |
| Ça y est, on y est |
| «I still have a dream» |
| Les jaloux vont maigrir |
| Noir et fier, je l’suis depuis tout petit |
| Et fier d'être noir, je l’serai jusqu'à la mort |
| J’ai grandi avec toutes sorte d’origines, de cultures |
| Et force est d’constater qu’la mixité c’est le futur |
| Et même le présent vu qu’on y est |
| Mais l’système est rouillé |
| L’Afrique c’est l’berceau de l’humanité tu peux pas l’nier |
| «I still have a dream» |
| «Now is the time» |
| J’suis un homme parmi tant d’hommes |
| Voici mon rôle d’bonhomme |
| Suivre mon chemin |
| Au nom des miens, pour le bien |
| C’temps passé à élaborer |
| Les premiers pas à Gorée |
| En 2007, on roule vers une nouvele ère |
| «I still have a dream» |
| «Now is the time» |
| Le mal triomphe de plus en plus |
| Et l’air qu’on respire n’a plus l’gout de la liberté |
| Ils croient nous faire oublier |
| L’humiliation d’l’esclavage, c’est toujours gravé |
| Le pavé brûle et on n’sait plus où poser son pied |
| Les plaies sont encore ouvertes |
| Ils veulent nous mettre la pilule |
| Les conflits, les génocides |
| Et la FINUL qui simule |
| L’Afrique berceau d’l’humanité |
| Tellement d’communautés |
| On devrait communiquer |
| Ensemble |
| «I still have a dream» |
| «Now is the time» |
| Tous les jours faut s’battre, tu vois |
| De la force, des idées, c’est c’qui fait des hommes (libres!) |
| Peu importe les droits des lois |
| J’suis né en France, j’suis malien dis-leur que j’suis (libre!) |
| Je chante pour tout l’monde, même le tiers monde |
| La planète c’est à tout l’monde |
| Alors criez |
| Tant qu’le cœur y est |
| Dans mon album, es-tu prêt à me suivre? |
| «I still have a dream» |
| «Now is the time |
| To rise from the dark and desolate valley of segregation to the sunlit path of |
| racial justice» |
| «Now is the time» |
| (translation) |
| "Now is the time to make real the promises of democracy" |
| yeah big |
| That's it, here we go |
| "I still have a dream" |
| The jealous ones will waste away |
| Black and proud, I've been since I was little |
| And proud to be black, I'll be it until I die |
| I grew up with all kinds of backgrounds, cultures |
| And it is clear that diversity is the future |
| And even the present since we're there |
| But the system is rusty |
| Africa is the cradle of humanity, you can't deny it |
| "I still have a dream" |
| "Now is the time" |
| I'm a man among so many men |
| Here is my role as a good man |
| follow my path |
| In the name of mine, for the good |
| It's time spent elaborating |
| The first steps in Gorée |
| In 2007, we are rolling towards a new era |
| "I still have a dream" |
| "Now is the time" |
| Evil triumphs more and more |
| And the air we breathe no longer tastes like freedom |
| They think they make us forget |
| The humiliation of slavery is always engraved |
| The pavement is burning and you don't know where to put your foot |
| The wounds are still open |
| They want to put us on the pill |
| Conflicts, genocides |
| And the UNIFIL which simulates |
| Africa cradle of humanity |
| So many communities |
| We should communicate |
| Whole |
| "I still have a dream" |
| "Now is the time" |
| Every day you have to fight, you see |
| Strength, ideas, that's what makes men (free!) |
| No matter the rights of the laws |
| I was born in France, I'm Malian tell them I'm (free!) |
| I sing for everyone, even the third world |
| The planet is for everyone |
| So shout |
| As long as the heart is there |
| In my album, are you ready to follow me? |
| "I still have a dream" |
| "Now is the time |
| To rise from the dark and desolate valley of segregation to the sunlit path of |
| racial justice” |
| "Now is the time" |
