Je me relève [English translation]
Je me relève [English translation]
I was nobody
Amongst men
I wanted only to exist
The lowliest crown
Anything that shines
Used to make me dream
So many times, I was lost
Amidst the unexpected games
Of life, survival
In paths without a single way out,
Too conventional a world
I have known all the superfluous, but
I am leaving my life behind me
I'm moving towards other dreams
I'm leaving behind the banner and the cross
I'm getting back up,
I'm getting back up for you
Moving ceaselessly,
I was defying time,
Passing my days in search of
Who I really was
Letting myself drift
Where the wind was blowing
I have tasted so many poisons,
Fallen into so many prisons,
Adored, golden,
In order to embrace all shivers
I have brushed against folly
I have known all the superfluous, but
I am leaving my life behind me
I'm moving towards other verses
I'm leaving behind the banner and the cross
I'm getting back up,
I'm getting back up for you
Wanting to be on top
And to reach all the heights
Up to the heavens
Wanting to possess everything
I have ended up forgetting
The main thing
So many times, I was lost
Amidst the unexpected games
Of life, survival
In paths without a single way out,
Too conventional a world
I have known all the superfluous, but
I am leaving my life behind me
I'm moving towards other verses
I'm leaving behind the banner and the cross
I'm getting back up
I am leaving my life behind me
I'm moving towards other dreams
I'm leaving behind the banner and the cross
I'm getting back up,
I'm getting back up for you
