Paroles et traduction Ayo & Youssoupha - Fire

Fire

Et la foule fait ce qu'elle veut
Elle est là pour faire face
Elle vient pas foutre le feu
Elle vient déclarer sa flamme
Fire

Is anybody listenin'?
The city's on fire
The town is burnin' down
But there's no water-ter-ter-ter

Eight million citizens, nobody's really listenin'
Nobody's really watchin', eight million ignorant
80 000 teachers, we do many preaches
A thousand of leaders but nobody leads us
Three million beggars, four million pleasers
We are the world but they don't believe in us
Get to got no funds, get to ain't no fun
Get to kids got guns, get to got no one
Get to got no funds, get to ain't no fun
Get to kids got guns, 'cause they got no one

One love pour mes soldats, one love pour mes petites sœurs
Prisent en otage avec une bombe à la place du cœur
C'est ça même

Is anybody listenin'?
The city's on fire
The town is burnin' down
But there's no water

Is anybody listenin'?
The city's on fire
The town is burnin' down
But there's no water

On m'a appris à haïr mais je vous aime quand même
On m'a appris à trahir mais je vous relève quand même
Je ne suis pas venu seul, viens ma sœur que je t'emmène
Je n'ai que ma grande gueule, pas de gun, que des emmerdes
Viens que je t'emmène, viens que je t'enlève
Viens que je te sauve, que je te cause, que je t'engraine
Graine de colère, mon ghetto est sous pression
Jour de tonnerre peu d'réponses trop de questions

Nos terres parlent au pression qu'on tombe de sommeil
Comment nous faire de l'ombre, on est les enfants du soleil
Viens, viens on reste dur, que notre bruit dure quand même
Même entre les murs qu'on se murmure quand même
Viens, viens on brûle le mic putain, parce que ma rime est on fire
Ma vie est on fire, ma ville est on fire
Grève, guerre des nerfs, démerde, vé-nère, brailleur
Grave besoin d'air, j'émerge, besoin d'ailleurs
Donc je me répète, ma rime est on fire
Ma vie est on fire, ma ville est on fire
Qui pourra nous comprendre? Besoin d'un traducteur
L'amour en cendre, avec une bombe à la place du cœur
C'est ça même

Is anybody listenin'?
The city's on fire (ma ville est on fire)
The town is burnin' down
But there's no water

Is anybody listenin'? (Ma ville est on fire)
The city's on fire
The town is burnin' down
L'amour en cendre, avec une bombe à la place du cœur

Nobody's listenin' to the sounds of the street
The climate, the violence, the silence, the heat
Five million set free out of five million desperate
One million hurt, thousands arrested

Allume ton esprit, sors de leurs griffes
Relève ton estime, sors de leurs chiffres
J'enchaîne les coups de gueule
Mais on ne libère pas un peuple, un peuple se libère tout seul
Fire

The city's on fire
The town is burnin' down (c'est ça même)
There ain't no sounds of silence
Tell me who's gonna help us now? (Je vous aime, yeah)
Nobody's listenin' (personne)
Eight million people riotin'
Looking for shelter
But they got nowhere to go

Is anybody listenin'?
Allez leur dire que ma ville est on fire
The town is burning down
Et j'ai une bombe à la place du cœur
Is anybody listenin'?
Rien à faire, ma vie est on fire
The town is burning down
Et j'ai une bombe à la place du cœur
Is anybody listenin'?
Allez leur crier que ma ville est on fire
The town is burning down
Et j'ai une bombe à la place du cœur
Is anybody listenin'?
Rien à faire, ma vie est on fire
The town is burning down
Et j'ai une bombe à la place du cœur

Fire

And the crowd does what it wants
It's here to face it all
It doesn't come to set fire
It comes to declare its flame
Fire

Is anybody listening?
The city's on fire
The town is burning down
But there's no water-ter-ter-ter

Eight million citizens, nobody's really listening
Nobody's really watching, eight million ignorant
80,000 teachers, we do many preachings
A thousand leaders but nobody leads us
Three million beggars, four million pleasers
We are the world but they don't believe in us
Got no funds, ain't no fun
Kids got guns, got no one
Got no funds, ain't no fun
Kids got guns, 'cause they got no one

One love for my soldiers, one love for my little sisters
Held hostage with a bomb in place of their hearts
That's right

Is anybody listening?
The city's on fire
The town is burning down
But there's no water

Is anybody listening?
The city's on fire
The town is burning down
But there's no water

I was taught to hate but I still love you
I was taught to betray but I still lift you up
I didn't come alone, come my sister let me take you away
I only have my big mouth, no gun, only trouble
Come let me take you away, let me lift you up
Let me save you, let me talk to you, let me engage you
Seed of anger, my ghetto is under pressure
Day of thunder, few answers, too many questions

Our lands speak with pressure that we fall from sleep
How to overshadow us, we are the children of the sun
Come, come, let's stay strong, let our noise last anyway
Even between the walls, let us whisper to each other anyway
Come, come, let's burn the mic, because my rhyme is on fire
My life is on fire, my city is on fire
Strike, war of nerves, hustle, anger, loudmouth
Serious need for air, I emerge, need for elsewhere
So I repeat myself, my rhyme is on fire
My life is on fire, my city is on fire
Who will be able to understand us? Need a translator
Love in ashes, with a bomb in place of the heart
That's right

Is anybody listening?
The city's on fire (my city is on fire)
The town is burning down
But there's no water

Is anybody listening? (My city is on fire)
The city's on fire
The town is burning down
Love in ashes, with a bomb in place of the heart

Nobody's listening to the sounds of the street
The climate, the violence, the silence, the heat
Five million set free out of five million desperate
One million hurt, thousands arrested

Light up your mind, get out of their clutches
Raise your self-esteem, get out of their numbers
I chain the rants
But we don't liberate a people, a people liberates itself
Fire

The city's on fire
The town is burning down (that's right)
There ain't no sounds of silence
Tell me who's gonna help us now? (I love you, yeah)
Nobody's listening (nobody)
Eight million people rioting'
Looking for shelter
But they got nowhere to go

Is anybody listening?
Go tell them that my city is on fire
The town is burning down
And I have a bomb in place of my heart
Is anybody listening?
Nothing to do, my life is on fire
The town is burning down
And I have a bomb in place of my heart
Is anybody listening?
Go shout to them that my city is on fire
The town is burning down
And I have a bomb in place of my heart
Is anybody listening?
Nothing to do, my life is on fire
The town is burning down
And I have a bomb in place of my heart
