Marqué à vie [English translation]

[Chorus: Dokou]

Because I'm marked for life

Marked by my time

I sing the scars

the cries and the revolt

Yes I'm marked for life

Just like you I bear

the hazards of life

Even when the devil knocks at my door

Because I'm marked for life

Marked for life

[Verse 1: Tunisiano]

I'm marked by life

Marked by the conflicts

Marked by our time

Cast aside, body bruised

Gone too soon

Assassinated friends,

No lovely novels,

The feelings are paper

Too emotional, it's never the right moment

To talk about it

However

Simple loudspeaker

Ghetto narrator

Skinned by life and by the tears

I write in the heart of the funeral pyre.

In the game of hate

They fell

We set fire to the plains

Continue

The next firefighter

Will be Le Pen in quarantine.

We wander in the open air, we slave away

They covered up the poverty

Like in a crime scene.

Determined to reach the target, I move forward

Sneaking, hiding out,

The devil tempts me,

I miss Moumouss

Locked up

In a cell

Waiting for the heart to come back to life

No-one comes out of their cell

With the keys to success.

We invite ourselves in

Without notice, you're not thrilled

We're hated and banished,

We're marked for life.

[Chorus: Dokou]

[Verse 2: Tunisiano]

Courted by the devil

Presumed guilty

My life is not profitable

Abused

And I'll f*** them

With no parental lock

And slave away and not get s***

When outside it's a monsoon

You sob that you thirst for an ideal,

A bit like Alain Souchon

I'm moving in traffic jams,

So not ready to be flashed.

A heart of teflon

It's only in a car that you can get attached/buckle up

My sound relates to you

It had to. Suicidal

On a Charley

In concert I found out

Who I was talking to.

In the competition,

On my life I'll wring them out

I'm coming, storm warning,

On the game the rain is pouring

On a quest for the title

But who can shut me up?

Rap with my heart and soul

Rap as if it was my last

Flipping out about these times

You click on old farts

They swindle us

You've got a boner

They're topless in their videos

But f*** it says a lot

Miss you're really into the scumbags

Choose a guy who has ambition

Swag doesn't pay the bills

[Chorus: Doku]

[Tunisiano]

Marked by life

Honest people are oppressed

Cast aside, dirtied or underestimated

Prove we can measure up

Yes proud of our values

Neglected despite so much potential

A thought for our mates in the sky.

Because I'm marked for life.
