I'm taking off
I've never squatted the routine
And the lack of life that's squashed up, my backpack quickly done, here i go, I'm leaving.
I'm not going to let my life be prisoner to their's, even though I'm having a hard time here, I'm going to have a hard time else where.
Ciao Ciao educators, I'm taking off, you can call the cops, close the door, I'll come through the window, that's for sure!
I've got my liberty, which is waiting for me right infront of me
I won't keep it waiting 123, Ciao every one !
So, no time for bla bla bla, I'm always the only one to leave.
Shit, none of my mates have ever been up for it!
There, where the system cast you with sordid vibes
For me, an enclosure is made so i can try and get out of it
so, i'm taking off!
need to go and breathe some where else
Here, they want to rise up against me and make me move forward very slowly.
I need freedom to thrill in my glory
The cops on my tail, I hear them say, the little one, yeah we'll get her (yeah yeah)
Chorus (x2)
I'm taking off
Bye bye home, I'm taking off
I'm going to breathe elsewhere!
Always improving in each of my races
In the arms of freedom, a load of inspectors on my tail!
Driven by the wind, go and tell those men in uniforms loosing their composure
that they will never catch me, not even in their dreams
My nights outside, awoken by a shiver
All senses alert, even when I sleep, (I'm) connected to my intuition
I've got nothing to fear, cradled by the song of the moon
The luck (is) in my free hands, street child
Far from the world of illogical and stubborn adults
Fugitives of their enclosure, from taunting cops and security guards
Fuck! it may be stupid, but that's how it is
I insist, your laws are immoral and my delinquance has some principals
So leave me in peace, you can always wait
if you want to see me crawl, rather than with a bullet in my temple
Drunk, I'll go away where my heart takes me
I was made to live between the stitching of your net
Chorus x2
Free, that's alright, that's perfect!
Me, well I'm alright when I have nothing because to be free you gotta have nothing to loose
my freedom made the men in blue get angry
stairwells as homes, I change houses when I want,
I change town when I want, chosen as homeless
I'm strolling, eyes open, the street kid is paying a visit
Distrusting the adult like a pest
Because adults are snitches, collaborators or traitors
Believe me, from experience
under pressure because the judge is angry
Let me live, any way I'm not allowed to go to school any more
so shit, today I'm 14, I've been running away for a long time
I've got on a bit and grown wiser, I don't need any one!
Life educates me and strolling around opens my mind
The encounters teach me a lot more than their teachers.
In short it's the outside school of life, where the sky is the roof between concrete buildings and the open.

this doesn't quite sound right in English and the lyrics contain a lot of teenage slang, I think you have to be a young French teenager to truly understand this song!
