Lyrics and translation Garou - L'injustice

L'injustice

T′as déjà fait le tour ce c'qui t′a fait souffrir
Pour le meilleur souvent récolté que le pire
Quand tu n'as plus la force ni même le désir
Et tellement chialé et tellement maudit
Quand t'en as ras le bol de ceux qui font semblant
Qu′avant d′parler d'amour ils te parlent d′argent
Et d'regarder partir ceux qu′t'as protégés toujours
En osant un sourire sur tes chances de retour
L′injustice, L'injustice
L'injustice tu la prends comme un poignard au c ur
Quand une femme te quitte, une amitié se meurt
Quand la beauté chez toi n′a jamais eu sa place
L′injustice se vit seule devant sa glace
L'injustice, L′injustice
L'injustice tu la prends comme une balle dans le dos
Quand jugées comme un crime ta couleur et ta peau
L′injustice elle s'écrit sur le mur des prisons
Sur les plages et les tombes qui porteront ton nom
Quand tu as sur le c ur qu′on te donne tous les torts
Qu'il te reste la pudeur de pardonner encore
On en revient grandi, comme du pays des morts
L'injustice ne se vit qu′à force d′être fort
L'injustice, L′injustice, L'injustice
À force d′être fort

Injustice

You've already been through the wringer of pain,
More often than not, the worst has come your way.
When you have no more strength, no more desire,
And you have cried and cursed so much,
When you are fed up with those who pretend,
Who talk to you about money before love,
And to watch those you have always protected leave,
Daring to smile at your chances of coming back.
The injustice, the injustice,
The injustice you take like a dagger to the heart,
When a woman leaves you, when a friendship dies,
When beauty has never had its place in your life,
Injustice lives alone in front of its mirror.
The injustice, the injustice,
The injustice you take like a bullet in the back,
When your color and your skin are judged as a crime,
Injustice is written on the prison walls,
On the beaches and the graves that will bear your name.
When the burden of blame is placed upon your heart,
May you have the decency to forgive once more.
We come back from it stronger, as if from the realm of the dead.
Injustice can only be lived through by being strong,
The injustice, the injustice, the injustice,
By being strong.
