Текст и перевод песни Elisa JO feat. Nekfeu - Steady Boy

Steady Boy

Des compères qui perdent les pédales, putain, j'en connais
Ça fait mal de voir le malheur chez les gens qu'on aime
Mon gars sûr, hier, je t'ai connu t'étais le plus souriant
Un surdoué en survet' qui embêtait les surveillants
On faisait les quatre cent coups en été quand on partait pas
Quand j'prenais quelques paires de claques
Je m'inquiétais car ton père te bat
T'as tout refoulé, tu ne t'es jamais plaint
Mais tu faisais le foolek dehors, des souvenirs j'en ai plein, frangin

Please don't let yourself down, fill it up with joy
Let me just fool around and get steady boy
On est ensemble, frère
Do sweep up off the ground, don't let go of your light
Let me just fool around and get steady boy

Ces derniers temps on se voyait pas beaucoup
Je ne t'ai pas vu te noyer dans la came
Un jour, tu t'es ouvert les poignets dans la cave
Les gens te voyaient comme un voyou qui sait bien s'tape
Mais le manque d'amour t'as rendu instable, la la la la
T'as tapé ta tête contre la fenêtre jusqu'à l'éclater, c'était sanglant
Tu gardes des séquelles chaque fois que cette anxiété s'enclenche
Te savoir dans un enclos, c'est indécent
Ils t'ont fait descendre avec des sangles
En laissant ta mère en sanglots
On a grandi ensemble, on va traverser ça
J'prierai pour toi ce soir, y'a rien d'autre à faire, c'est sale
Ouais, on va traverser ça
J'prierai pour toi ce soir, y'a rien d'autre à faire, c'est sake

Please don't let yourself down, fill it up with joy
Let me just fool around and get steady boy
On est ensemble, frère
Do sweep up off the ground, don't let go of your light
Let me just fool around and get steady boy

Je suis venu te voir en HP, là où l'espoir s'échappe
Là où tu peux devenir fou si tu l'es pas déjà
Mais ils t'ont pas achevé et t'as pas baissé les bras
Même si la première fois tu m'reconnaissais même pas
C'est triste mais j'en parle au passé, la vie, c'est comme les spliffs
Quand ton seum s'effrite, ça finit par se tasser
Même si t'as commencé jeune, tu t'es sevré
Et t'as dis à ta mère: " Plus jamais je n'te décevrais "

Show me things that can be beautiful
Show me that things can be beautiful (la vie est belle frangin)
Show me things that can be beautiful
But don't let go, no don't let go no oh oh

Please don't let yourself down, fill it up with joy
Let me just fool around and get steady boy
On est ensemble, frère
Do sweep up off the ground, don't let go of your light
Let me just fool around and get steady boy

C'est triste mais j'en parle au passé, la vie, c'est comme les spliffs
Quand ton seum s'effrite, ça finit par se tasser
Show me things that can be beautiful
But don't let go, no don't let go no oh oh
C'est triste mais j'en parle au passé, la vie, c'est comme les spliffs
Quand ton seum s'effrite, ça finit par se tasser
Même si t'as commencé jeune, tu t'es sevré
Et t'as dis à ta mère: " Plus jamais je n'te décevrais "
Do sweep up off the ground, don't let go of your light
Let me just fool around and get steady boy

Steady Boy

I know buddies who are losing their minds, damn
It hurts to see misfortune in the people we love
My steady boy, yesterday, when I met you, you were the most smiling
A gifted kid in a tracksuit who annoyed the supervisors
We used to get into all sorts of trouble in the summer when we weren't going away
When I was getting a few slaps
I worried because your father was beating you
You bottled it all up, you never complained
But you were acting the fool outside, I have plenty of memories, brother

Please don't let yourself down, fill it up with joy
Let me just fool around and get steady boy
We're together, brother
Do sweep up off the ground, don't let go of your light
Let me just fool around and get steady boy

We haven't seen each other much lately
I didn't see you drowning in drugs
One day, you slit your wrists in the basement
People saw you as a thug who knows how to fight
But the lack of love made you unstable, la la la la
You banged your head against the window until it shattered, it was bloody
You keep scars every time this anxiety kicks in
Knowing you're in an enclosure is indecent
They took you down with straps
Leaving your mother in tears
We grew up together, we'll get through this
I'll pray for you tonight, there's nothing else to do, it's dirty
Yeah, we'll get through this
I'll pray for you tonight, there's nothing else to do, it's sake

Please don't let yourself down, fill it up with joy
Let me just fool around and get steady boy
We're together, brother
Do sweep up off the ground, don't let go of your light
Let me just fool around and get steady boy

I came to see you in the psych ward, where hope escapes
Where you can go crazy if you're not already
But they didn't finish you off and you didn't give up
Even if the first time you didn't even recognize me
It's sad but I talk about it in the past, life is like spliffs
When your blues crumble, it eventually settles
Even if you started young, you got clean
And you told your mother: "I will never disappoint you again"

Show me things that can be beautiful
Show me that things can be beautiful (life is beautiful brother)
Show me things that can be beautiful
But don't let go, no don't let go no oh oh

Please don't let yourself down, fill it up with joy
Let me just fool around and get steady boy
We're together, brother
Do sweep up off the ground, don't let go of your light
Let me just fool around and get steady boy

It's sad but I talk about it in the past, life is like spliffs
When your blues crumble, it eventually settles
Show me things that can be beautiful
But don't let go, no don't let go no oh oh
It's sad but I talk about it in the past, life is like spliffs
When your blues crumble, it eventually settles
Even if you started young, you got clean
And you told your mother: "I will never disappoint you again"
Do sweep up off the ground, don't let go of your light
Let me just fool around and get steady boy
