À mon retour [English translation]
À mon retour [English translation]
I turn on the jets, I pull the throttle
It's difficult to choose between all these planets
My family is waiting for me below, I see them, they wave to me
My future is a painting and it's my choice that draws it
I'm on my way to my destiny, listening to instinct
I don't turn a deaf ear and if I mess up, bah, it's better than nothing
Because when I return, I believe that I will be someone
I take time and I decide to do it
But I turned around, while looking over the Earth
I stop myself from going to see if the grass is greener
Over there, it was no greener than before
Too long, that I've been on my branch, and so I chose to cut it off
The desire took me by the arm; I didn't even have time to get dressed
I know that I am a star, It's necessary to be bright
Those who tell me "It's impossible" never dared to take their ticket
I was scared of leaving, but if it's my choice, I can't come back
I wanted to write myself into the pages of my story
Alone in my hole, I wanted to know what the birds see
I debated with life
And it taught me this
What they regret least it's having gotten on the train less taken
The need to change the feeling and the tempo
I won't give you too much info
Don't worry, I'm returning soon
And I hear the people yell "Bigflo"
Oli is my only passenger
I had a thirst to be quenched
At my core, I won't miss you
When I return, I will have changed
(x2)
You know, I regret when I look through the window late at night
At all the people who love but it's too often misplaced
I promise tomorrow I'll get up then get ready for the great departure
I will try it, when I return, I will have changed
I leave my things in a drawer
I leave the sidewalks of my city who saw me as a kid
Goodbye, I won't return but I won't tell them
I'm hiding a mirror in the palm of my hand
Routine kills dreams, mine have disappeared
My friends ask me "Where are you going" I respond "Far from here"
Far from those I love, you all stay behind
It is not the last time, I will return soon enough
I had no screen, but in my room I saw somewhere else
I took the time, but the important thing is that it's not too late
I don't have a plan but I want to solve the scrambled codes
To change the train of life, I'm speeding, I left our station
In my suitcase, a postcard and some object the I will fill completely
Take a photo of my apartment
There there is a suit for my wedding and my funeral
I gathered speed, It's gone, yeah, you can do the same
To find the love of my life, I believe that I will redo my search
Between the tears, the regrets, the crazy laughs
My new fears will not be of old memories
It's crazy that even though time passes, nothing erases the doubts
Too long that I've been balancing on a beam
A packet of memories have piled up, I fill the bags
I leave to make a hundred more, I'll make them on the road
I gave myself false ideas, I dreamed, I thought, I gave up my right to benefit
If I don't catch the moon before bursting, there's no grudge
I will never be so close
I wonder if I will get it
When I cry, I accuse the light or the smoke
I'm scared of suffocating or being abusing myself
Give me orders, of course I don't steer the rocket, but that isn't the point
I must be a little reassured by Bigflo but always by Olivio
At the start, I told myself, "When I am grown up"
Now, it's always "When I've moved up a bit"
I won't be completely there
I want life, to write it and to sing it
I forget the dangers
A departure for a better return
Cheers!
When I return, I will have changed
(x3)
You know, I regret when I look through the window late at night
At all the people who love, too often misplaced
I promise tomorrow I will get up ready for the big departure
I will try it; when I return I will have changed
