Translation of the song lyrics Jeux d'ombres - Nekfeu, Doums, Amber-Simone

Jeux d'ombres (original)

Je vois les lumières de ma ville, je vois les jeux d’ombres
Je suis comme la nuit: chaque jour, je tombe
Les 'iens cherchent du molly, mes collègues te montrent la came
Quelques jambes dans mon lit, quelques pieds dans mon placard
Ce train de vie m’atteint, chaque jour est un samedi
Cinq heures du matin, nouvelle insomnie
Une partie de poker, du pain sur la planche à billets
Non, strip poker: OK, je ne veux plus voir de blanche habillée
Quand mes gavas font les fous, les voisins font les fous
Mon mot d’excuse dans l’ascenseur:
«Bonsoir, veuillez vous faire foutre»
Et chaque fois que mes potos boivent trop:
Comportements de gamins
Dès qu’on a bien foutu le bazar, on rentre
On finira par se faire jeter de la soirée
Poursuivis par des gorilles portant le brassard orange
Des gars mal élevés font les malins
J’ai bien fait de ramener ma lame
Il voulait faire de la mala
C’est pas la peine, non, t’es malade
I see the stars baby
We gonna get away, you gonna lead the way
Lost in the night
Living in yesterday, I wanna rule now
Wake up and we get drunk
Don’t wanna leave this cold night
You gonna keep up
We gonna leave here faded
I see the stars
We gonna get away, you gonna lead the away
Quand t’as pas les millions
Devant les boîtes, ça t’humilie, hein
T’inquiète, on a de la sensimelia
On a même du Saint-Emilion
Je rêve qu’du ciel étoilé, pas de rave dans les toilettes
Mes beurettes dans des Touareg
Mes touaregs dans des beurettes
Ce petit jeu n’a pas d’sens, obligé d’en venir au cul
Elles me font des avances, je prends du recul
I see the stars baby
We gonna get away, you gonna lead the way
Lost in the night
Living in yesterday, I wanna rule now
Wake up and we get drunk
Don’t wanna leave this cold night
You gonna keep up
We gonna leave here faded
I see the stars
We gonna get away, you gonna lead the away

(translation)

I see my city lights, I see the shadow play
I'm like the night: every day I fall
'Niens lookin' for molly, my coworkers show you cam
A few legs in my bed, a few feet in my closet
This lifestyle gets to me, every day is a Saturday
Five in the morning, new insomnia
A game of poker, bread on the money board
No, strip poker: OK, I don't want to see any more dressed white women
When my guys go crazy, the neighbors go crazy
My apology in the elevator:
“Good evening, please fuck off”
And whenever my homies drink too much:
Kid behaviors
As soon as we screwed up the mess, we go home
We'll end up getting kicked out of the party
Pursued by gorillas wearing the orange armband
Ill-mannered guys act smart
I did well to bring back my blade
He wanted to make mala
It's not worth it, no, you're sick
I see the stars baby
We gonna get away, you gonna lead the way
Lost in the night
Living in yesterday, I want to rule now
Wake up and we get drunk
Don't wanna leave this cold night
You gonna keep up
We gonna leave here faded
I see the stars
We gonna get away, you gonna lead the away
When you don't have the millions
In front of clubs, it humiliates you, huh
Don't worry, we have sensimelia
We even have Saint-Emilion
I only dream of the starry sky, no raves in the toilets
My beurettes in Tuaregs
My Tuaregs in beurettes
This little game doesn't make sense, forced to come to the ass
They make advances to me, I take a step back
I see the stars baby
We gonna get away, you gonna lead the way
Lost in the night
Living in yesterday, I want to rule now
Wake up and we get drunk
Don't wanna leave this cold night
You gonna keep up
We gonna leave here faded
I see the stars
We gonna get away, you gonna lead the away
