As best I can

As best I can, I try to do my best
I don't feel so good, I don't want to show anything in front of them
As best I can, I try to do my best
I don't feel so good, I don't want to show anything in front of them
 
Escaped from a Tim Burton film, I am in my delirium, is there death for man?
I am only fleeing, only God pardons me, of love for my team that my team gives back
And the full moon passed me a wolf, tomorrow I will have changed humor at dawn
You thought to see a simple handshake but plastic bag in the hand passed one hand to another
That the concrete in the panorama, Paris will always have plenty of dead rats,
Traffic restrains of the Panamera, we will erase the evidence, yeah, but not our remorse
And the coward is out, the fellow is rare, you were so proud of the mercy stroke
And now, you are less proud, you don't fear hell but the face of hell, you have like a smell of dirt
 
And before God, I try to do as best that I can
I don't feel so good, I don't want to show anything in front of them
As best I can, I try to do my best
I don't feel so good, I don't want to show anything in front of them
 
The tickets pass from hand to hand, I realize that we darken in the night
And now that I have more confidence in myself, I tell it myself less and less
I enclose words in my poems, a rich human creature since the world is mine
If the system judges on skin, well, I fell closer to the Gypsies
Hatch flowers to mid-May, I have far too many enemies but
I make grand gestures to make them understand that I was useless so I'm on it
 
And I do as best I can, I try to do as best I can
I don't feel so good, I don't want to show anything in front of them
As best I can, I try to do my best
I don't feel so good, I don't want to show anything in front of them

Just noticing a mistake in the beginning when he says "Je ne fais que fuir" he actually is fleeing, like it means that all he does is fleeing :) So it's the contrary of what you've written if you see what I mean.

Thank you and please tell if there are other errors!

Yeah no problem :) I noticed another one : "Si le système juge sur la peau, eh bien je me sens plus proche des bohémiens" when he says "la peau" it's litteral, he means the color of the skin, he's denouncing racism because the system can judge you on the color of your skin, and people who are not "white" can be discriminated against, as are gypsies for exemple

thanks for the translation, just wanted to let you know that Paname (Paname aura toujours plein de rats morts) is a slang name for Paris, not Panama :)
