Alone

[Refrain]
Alone, as if I was ugly and mean
As if I bothered people
Until I'm elevated to the rank of legend
I celebrate my victories quietly without popping champagne
Like a presupposition, I'm ahead of my generation
In order not to rush them, I used to go easy on them but not anymore
And to give them time for their wounds to heal
I’ll tour the capital like I'm touring a prison yard
 
[Single Couplet]
The years go by like months, I can attest to that
The marks of time are visible on your face, as on your hands
Entire albums have been recorded in the underground
Searching for gold in a world where, without money, you’re nothing
They won't even look at you, they won’t talk to you
Not even to give you directions; man, it’s totally paranoid
To the one who said that all roads lead to Rome
If the end justifies the means, they don't always have the same aroma
So, young lady, put your dress back on, you’re not ready
For the perversion of Man, but if blood-red is the color of
The soles of your high-heels, don’t be surprised
If the wolf has long teeth and lurks in the shadows
It's all part of the animosity, the capacity
To be present without doing anything about the worst atrocities
Blinded by the luminosity
No, not our ideas but our on-screen brands have already been nominated too many times
Yeah, jump off the bridge
You’re looking for love in 2018, there's just a handful of honest women
You’re looking for a job in 2018, damn, you need connections
And there are guys who've got the connections but dude, you've got to know them
Me, I don’t wait for it to fall from the heaven, bro, I grind
It’s not dangerous out there but I’m at war, go talk about a truce somewhere else
A lot of people are schizophrenic, bipolar
When you make it, menial work becomes a thing of the past
Yeah, I’m just a man, I contradict myself so many times
Lost in between my principles and my addictions
I said I was ending it, but I came back to do music
Fuck, this sloppiness gives me the bumps
This sloppiness got me drunk like an alcoholic
In my drunkenness, I no doubt lost a few associates
Every night, the pillow flattened out under the weight of my reflections
They have replaced Greek with gastro chic restaurants
You can’t make me take everything for a joke, I’m not stupid
If you can, it’s either you don’t have a heart or you’re not afraid to fail
There are a lot of things that get on my nerves
But, relax, it doesn’t mean that I’m going to open fire on Paris
They would insult me through caricatures, my name is Abdel Karim
But, in an intellectual tyranny I’d be taken for a madman
When I speak my mind, they’ll tell me: “Do you know where you can settle it
Over there, you've gone over the edge, forget about your carrier plans”
 
(Refrain)
Alone, as if I was ugly and mean
As, as if I bothered people
As I wait to be elevated to the rank of legend
I celebrate my victories quietly without popping champagne
Like a presupposition, I'm ahead of my generation
So I wouldn’t rush them, I used to go easy on them
And to give them time for their wounds to heal
I’ll tour the capital like I'm touring a prison yard
