Lyrics and translation Orelsan feat. Nekfeu & Dizzee Rascal - Zone

Zone

Laissez-moi, j'suis dans ma zone
Laissez-moi, j'suis dans ma zone
Laissez-moi, j'suis dans ma zone
Laissez-moi, j'suis dans ma zone
J'baise ta meuf et j'me fais des pâtes
Pour partir plus vite, j'respecte même pas le temps de cuisson
Sous pression, toujours en mission
J'ai rien fait par rapport à mes ambitions
J'veux faire mal, faire un truc viral
En gros, j'veux faire comme les mecs qu'ont inventé le SIDA
J'veux plus jamais faire les même erreurs
Hanté par le passé, pressé d'avoir Alzheimer
Avant, j'étais mauvais, 'sky dans les gobelets
Une demie bouteille avant d'aller bosser
Toutes ces connasses à mes côtés
Terroristes sexuelles, elles veulent juste se faire sauter
Ta vie, c'est de la merde, à qui la faute?
T'es figurant dans le film de la vie d'un autre
T'assumes pas, tu critiques ce que t'aimes
Combien de fois tu vas dire que j'suis mort avant que j'revienne?
Vous rappez comme des rastas blancs
Pourquoi tu rappes comme un rasta blanc?
T'as pris les codes d'une musique et tu l'appliques bêtement
Pendant qu'on va de l'avant
Tu peux me trouver dans les rues de Caen
Avec un mélange où tout le monde a bu dedans
Entre deux mondes en suspend
C'est criminel la façon dont j'tue le temps
Nekfeu, Orelsan, Neksan, Orelfeu
Qu'est-ce que t'attendais de mieux?
Étoiles dans les yeux
Yes, j'ai grandi dans l'Ouest
J'ai les même potes qu'à l'époque
Nous d'abord et fuck le reste
Yes, j'faisais ça pour le kiff à la base
J'faisais mes clips et mes disques à l'arrache
Mais, comme d'hab', y'a toujours un type qui a la rage
Un truc de business qui détruira la vibe
Yes, j'ai vu la célébrité comme un mirage
Plus qu'un album et j'me fais refaire le visage
Histoire de pouvoir retrouver le même feeling
Qu'à l'époque où j'recopiais les flows de Dizzee
Laissez-moi, j'suis dans ma zone
Laissez-moi, j'suis dans ma zone
Laissez-moi, j'suis dans ma zone
Laissez-moi, j'suis dans ma zone
Fin de contrôle, j'avais rien sur moi mais la keuf guette
Elle est mignonne mais elle aura pas la queue de Ken
Je mets les femmes en confiance comme un club gay
Elles veulent enlever le haut comme un cupcake
Non, mais dis donc, mais dis donc
Tu veux ma confiance, ça met du temps, met du temps
J'ai construit mon empire de mes dix doigts, mes dix doigts
2017, j'attends toujours ma Dido, ma Dido
Y'a comme un décalage entre mon époque et moi
Même à l'école, les professeurs ne comprenaient pas
Comment je pouvais niquer mon avenir, je devais trouver ma voie
J'avais du mal à choisir entre les trois premiers Pokémon
Certaines nuits, je ne savais pas où aller
C'est pas mon genre de mendier
Y'a ceux qui disent "oui" mais quand on me demandait
"Ken, t'as des ennuis? " je disais "non" comme Wallen
Dans ce siècle, sans la banque, t'as aucune chance
Autant faire la sieste sur la bande d'arrêt d'urgence
La vie, c'est speed, génération 16 bit
Loin des suce bites, tes MCs sans inspi'
T'as la pression quand Orel t'invite
Depuis 2011, on t'avait dit que t'aurais ton feat'
Alors on va bien te niquer si tu tailles pipe
Et tu vas retourner kicker sur des type beat
Il nous reste peut-être quelques secondes à vivre
Tu me demandes de mes nouvelles mais c'est qu'une tactique
Dis-moi, pourquoi les gens d'aujourd'hui se contactent-ils
Si c'est pour faire l'amour avec des écrans tactiles?
Tous ingrats, l'état du monde s'aggrave
Cinq grammes dans le crâne, c'est le saint Graal
Les uns craquent, les autres tiennent mais ça craint, ils obtiennent
Du chagrin qui s'accroît, mais les plaies s'aggravent
Dehors, ça crame, c'est crade, on pense au bien de chacun
J'ai ouvert mes chakras, un peu des miens dans chaque rap, chacal
L'Entourage, Casseurs Flowteurs
Neksan, Orelfeu, Orelfeu, Neksan
Laissez-moi, j'suis dans ma zone
Laissez-moi, j'suis dans ma zone
Laissez-moi, j'suis dans ma zone
Ouais, laissez-moi, j'suis dans ma zone
I don't speak French but whatever he's saying
That work a rasclart flow, I ain't playing
I met him just the other day in L.A
He told me that he had a riddim that he wanted to play
And I should listen, if it's really something different, okay
Had a suspicion that he wouldn't just go out of his way
Must be official, I don't really see an issue
What's the worst that could happen?
Could be another crappy rapper talking about they're in the trap
And all that other skatty shit that they yapping
And then they turned the riddim on, it was snapping
It wasn't lacking, had me bopping and tapping
I had to jack it, I told them I would definitely back it
I've just got to figure how to attack it
Could be an asset
Can't be just out here making a racket
For the sake of a pay packet, let's make it a classic
It's a dirty little beat, it reminds me of The Streets
Mike Skinner and them
I've got that old school feeling again
Two stepping in the ends, gun finger to the ceiling again
I give it a ten out of ten
Told the producer he should send me the stems
Somebody get me a pen
The beat's leng, I can't even pretend
Give me the microphone and let me do what I do best
Give me the microphone and check 1, 2, 3, test
It's all bless, say it with your chest and all the rest
I don't rest and I'm never gonna settle for less
The success, invest in a flat in the West
Have Jess with the 32F breasts telling me she's very impressed
I digress, took a holler, I messed
But ingest so it's jiggy I guess

Zone

Leave me alone, I'm in my zone
Leave me alone, I'm in my zone
Leave me alone, I'm in my zone
Leave me alone, I'm in my zone
I'm banging your girl and making some pasta
To get going faster, I don't even respect the cooking time
Under pressure, always on a mission
I've done nothing compared to my ambitions
I wanna cause trouble, do something viral
Basically, I wanna be like the guys who invented AIDS
I never wanna make the same mistakes again
Haunted by the past, eager to get Alzheimer's
Before, I was bad, 'sky in the cups
Half a bottle before going to work
All these chicks by my side
Sexual terrorists, they just want to blow themselves up
Your life is shit, whose fault is it?
You're an extra in the movie of someone else's life
You can't handle it, you criticize what you love
How many times are you gonna say I'm dead before I come back?
You guys rap like white rastas
Why are you rapping like a white rasta?
You took the codes of a music and you apply them stupidly
While we're moving forward
You can find me in the streets of Caen
With a mixed drink that everyone has drunk from
Between two worlds in suspense
It's criminal the way I kill time
Nekfeu, Orelsan, Neksan, Orelfeu
What did you expect better?
Stars in my eyes
Yes, I grew up in the West
I have the same friends as back then
Us first and fuck the rest
Yes, I did it for the fun at the start
I made my clips and my records haphazardly
But, as usual, there's always a guy who's pissed off
A business thing that will destroy the vibe
Yes, I saw celebrity as a mirage
One more album and I'm getting my face redone
Just to be able to find the same feeling
As back when I was copying Dizzee's flows
Leave me alone, I'm in my zone
Leave me alone, I'm in my zone
Leave me alone, I'm in my zone
Leave me alone, I'm in my zone
End of the check, I had nothing on me but the cop is watching
She's cute but she won't get Ken's dick
I put women at ease like a gay club
They wanna take their tops off like a cupcake
No, but say, say
You want my trust, it takes time, takes time
I built my empire with my ten fingers, my ten fingers
2017, I'm still waiting for my Dido, my Dido
There's like a gap between my time and me
Even at school, the teachers didn't understand
How I could fuck up my future, I had to find my way
I had trouble choosing between the first three Pokemon
Some nights, I didn't know where to go
It's not my style to beg
There are those who say "yes" but when they asked me
"Ken, are you in trouble? " I said "no" like Wallen
In this century, without the bank, you have no chance
Might as well take a nap on the emergency lane
Life is fast, generation 16 bit
Far from the cocksuckers, your MCs with no inspiration
You feel the pressure when Orel invites you
Since 2011, we told you you'd have your feat'
So we're gonna fuck you up if you suck dick
And you're gonna go back to kicking on type beat
We may have a few seconds left to live
You ask me for news but it's just a tactic
Tell me, why do people today contact each other
If it's to make love with touch screens?
All ungrateful, the state of the world is getting worse
Five grams in the skull, it's the holy grail
Some crack, others hold on but it sucks, they get
Sorrow that grows, but the wounds get worse
Outside, it's burning, it's dirty, we think of everyone's good
I opened my chakras, a bit of mine in every rap, jackal
The Entourage, Casseurs Flowteurs
Neksan, Orelfeu, Orelfeu, Neksan
Leave me alone, I'm in my zone
Leave me alone, I'm in my zone
Leave me alone, I'm in my zone
Yeah, leave me alone, I'm in my zone
I don't speak French but whatever he's saying
That work a rasclart flow, I ain't playing
