Translation of the song lyrics Sa Motivation - Soon E MC

Sa Motivation (original)

Objectif, objectif, carrière et emploi
À l'époque il avait quoi, seize, dix-sept ans
Prénommez-le Vincent, Vinci, Vince
Avance, avance, avance, avance
Il a quitté l'école, il n'était qu’un adolescent
Aucun diplôme en main, peut-être un inconscient
Il a eu différents jobs, histoire de dépanner
Gagner quelques thunes serait le terme approprié
Aucune qualification, ils lui ont dit «Toi, manutention»
Il a accepté, il n’avait pas d’autre option
Un jour, il a dit «stop, j vais reprendre ls études
Ils me demande bac plus, j’y arriverai même si c’est rude»
Sachez que Vincent est resté plus de dix-huit mois
Dans l’ombre du rythme scolaire, il vivait la fiesta
Désormais il a pris de nouvelles résolutions
Prochaine rentrée d’septembre-octobre en préparation
Cette phrase marquait donc sa motivation
Sa motivation, sa motivation
Changement de décor, nous retrouvons Vincent
Quelques années plus tard en plein bac blanc
Il paraît serein, décontracté, relax
Pourtant la veille il était au Rex pour décompresser au max
Cette sortie nocturne ne l’a pas gêné pour autant
De plus le résultat s’est avéré satisfaisant
Quatorze soixante-quinze de moyenne générale
Dans l’ensemble c’est pas mal mais pas assez pour lui, il râle
(Oh il râle, oh il râle)
Preuve de sa motivation
Sa motivation, sa motivation
Sa motivation, sa motivation
Jour J, heure H, minute M, seconde S
Dans l’attitude de Vincent, plus le moindre stress
Vous me direz normal, cela fait si longtemps
Qu’il attend ce moment impatiemment
Trente-six mois d’acharnement, mille quatre-vingt-quinze jours
Même si ce n'était pas constant, quel fabuleux parcours
Que celui de Vinci, se trouvant aujourd’hui
En très bonne position pour remporter son pari
Le temps s’est écoulé, l'épreuve est terminée
Vincent sort de la classe, il me semble satisfait
Je m’approche et lui demande «Alors cool?», «Ouais»
A été sa réponse, même qu’il m’a dit «Tout est OK
Dorénavant je possède un diplôme en main
Fini la manutention, trop mauvais pour les reins
D’ailleurs dès demain, je serai sur le marché de l’emploi
Avec dans mon bagage un bac, un bag pour lauréat»
Une clef, une solution, mais est-ce la solution
Bagage pour que Vincent puisse préserver ce qui lui reste de sa motivation
Sa motivation, sa motivation
Sa motivation, sa motivation
Check, check, one, two, check, microphone check
Wake up, debout, tu connais dec' mec
Après l’heure ce n’est plus l’heure, dur dur le réveil
It’s time, fini le sommeil
Le jour s’est levé, mets ta tête à l’extérieur
Contemple le ciel comme on contemple la fleur
Ambiance estivale pour oublier momentanément
La grisaille d’un quotidien beaucoup trop abracadabrant
Bizarre, bizarre, bizarre, bizarre
Bizarre, bizarre, vous me dites que
Bizarre, bizarre, c’est
Bizarre, bizarre, c’est
Oui, j’viens pour l’annonce (sur le marché de l’emploi)
Non-non, j’ai vu ça dans l’journal, quoi, métier à temps plein (quel marché)
Pardon?
Non-non, j’suis bien formel
En fait, j’suis venu hier, on m’avait dit d’repasser aujourd’hui
Quoi?
Ouais j’ai travaillé deux-trois fois dans…
Dans l’même genre de boulot, quoi, en fait

(translation)

Goal, Goal, Career and Job
At the time he was what, sixteen, seventeen
Name him Vincent, Vinci, Vince
Advance, advance, advance, advance
He left school, he was just a teenager
No diploma in hand, maybe an unconscious
He had different jobs, just to help out
Earning a few bucks would be the right term
No qualifications, they told him "You, handling"
He accepted, he had no other option
One day he said "stop, I'm going back to school
They ask me bac more, I'll get there even if it's rough"
Know that Vincent stayed more than eighteen months
In the shadow of the school rhythm, he lived the fiesta
Now he's made new resolutions
Next September-October intake in preparation
This sentence therefore marked his motivation
His motivation, his motivation
Change of scenery, we find Vincent
A few years later in full white bac
He seems serene, relaxed, relaxed
Yet the day before he was at the Rex to decompress to the max
This nocturnal outing did not bother him, however.
Moreover, the result turned out to be satisfactory
Fourteen seventy-five overall average
Overall it's not bad but not enough for him, he moans
(Oh he bitch, oh he bitch)
Proof of his motivation
His motivation, his motivation
His motivation, his motivation
Day D, hour H, minute M, second S
In Vincent's attitude, the less stress
You'll tell me normal, it's been so long
That he waits impatiently for this moment
Thirty-six months of relentlessness, one thousand and ninety-five days
Even if it wasn't constant, what a fabulous journey
Than that of Vinci, found today
In a very good position to win his bet
Time is up, the trial is over
Vincent comes out of the class, he seems satisfied
I walk up and say "So cool?", "Yeah"
Was his response, even he told me "It's ok
Now I got a degree in hand
No more handling, too bad for the kidneys
Besides tomorrow, I will be on the job market
With in my luggage a baccalaureate, a bag for the winner"
One key, one solution, but is it the solution
Baggage so that Vincent can preserve what remains of his motivation
His motivation, his motivation
His motivation, his motivation
Check, check, one, two, check, microphone check
Wake up, up, you know that man
After the hour it is no longer the hour, hard hard to wake up
It's time, no more sleep
The day has dawned, put your head outside
Contemplate the sky as one contemplates the flower
Summer atmosphere to momentarily forget
The grayness of a daily life that is far too preposterous
Weird, weird, weird, weird
Weird, weird, you tell me
Weird, weird, it's
Weird, weird, it's
Yes, I come for the ad (on the job market)
No-no, I saw that in the newspaper, what, full-time job (what market)
Sorry?
No-no, I'm very formal
In fact, I came yesterday, I was told to come back today
What?
Yeah I worked two or three times in...
In the same kind of job, what, in fact
