Car tu portes mon nom [English translation]
Car tu portes mon nom [English translation]
How to tell you what I have in my heart
At this time, I'm only a little sister
Who does'nt want to be a babysitter, no
I was violent before, I had in my belly
Rancor to spare
I never was in ranks
I was felin and solitary in secret
Strong and male from the head to the shoes
Since the family was just a phone call away
I understood, I did not say everything
But I resumed my routine, yeah
I wondered what was the point of living
What the point of staying ?
I searched in books some peace
Some respect
I waited hours near the phone
I thought my father dead
But we saw him on the globe so
Not so easy to be the fruit of a fugitive
Will I eventually run away too
Without giving you birth, no
I swear my child, you'll see the world
And you will be the love because you'll wear my name
Neither the sky nor the stars move me away from you
I will give you a father and a way
I swear, I would be there from cradle to grave
I will be the world because you will wear my name
As a teenager, I did not see myself as a woman
Adults were cowardly to kids of my age
Always looking for the perfect child
Mothers were investigating their kids
While mine was leaving
Too often alone, I ended up understanding
That money was hunger and that her daughter was greedy
So my mother, I loved her secretly
Crippling, I love her excessively, yeah
All the love we've lost
We catch him
But I would never have enough of a life
To honor her, no
If I tell you about my mother
It's that I only have her
Your grandmother is a queen
And her strength, I leave for you
Remember that she is your blood
She is the reason of your guts
That she was great and that we will have to look like her
My child, you will not regret the world
And you will know love because you will wear my name
Neither the sky nor the stars move me away from you
I will give you a father and a way
I swear, I would be there from cradle to grave
I will be the world because you will wear my name
I grew up, I know
I'm not the same anymore, no
My weak heart has found all its bearings
I swear, I'll give you everything I received
But be sure that I will release you from wounds
I swear, I'll release you from the pain, yeah
I would always be your sky in the hopscotch
Sometimes, your dad is waiting for me somewhere
Sometimes I think I see him but he does not look like you, no
I imagine him father, I imagine him husband
I imagine him proud, I imagine him fragile
I visualize us as three in the park
You on the swing then all three in the sand
I imagine myself mother, I imagine myself blessed
I imagine myself proud to have given life
We will be beautiful, believe me
We will be good in this world
Over time, we will be full and you will wear my name
Neither the sky nor the stars move me away from you
I will give you a father and a way
I swear, I would be there from cradle to grave
I will be the world because you will wear my name
