Bécane Lyrics and English Lyrics Translation

Bitch, ça fait très très longtemps que j'y pense, à comment se mettre bien
Bitch, it's been a very long time that I've been thinking about how to live well
Moi, j'ai pas ton élan
I don't have your momentum
N'écoute jamais les on-dit
Never listen to gossip
Ceux qui jactent n'ont pas vu la vie au travers de ton monde
Those who talk haven't seen life through your world
J'ai beau parler dans leur langue
I may speak in their language
Mais faut croire qu'ils n'entendent que le langage de la violence
But it seems they only understand the language of violence
J'me faufile en balle, sans les mains
I slip through like a bullet, hands-free
Tu m'as pas vu bégayer quand fallait passer le lent
You didn't see me stutter when it was time to pass slowly

Sankara, Cheikh Anta, negro, I chose my role models
C'est fiable comme un moteur allemand
It's reliable like a German engine
En indé', sans carats, sans chicots
In the hood, without carats, without teeth
Oui, je fais quer-cro bien plus que les grands de tes grands
Yes, I flex much more than your big shots

I don't fear them, they're not focused
J'attends pas la passe, ils peuvent pas centrer
I don't wait for the pass, they can't center

I ride as if someone is waiting for me
J'cale l'pétard entre mes dents
I hold the joint between my teeth

J'vois que des barreaux, des barreaux en fer
All I see are bars, iron bars
