A 20 Ans
Amel Bent
At 20 Years Old
I'm 20 years old
Living the life everyone dreams of, under the spotlight,
Always smiling
I'm 20 years old,
In a world where love dies,
I hold onto my values without ever asking for a truce
I'll always be 20 years old
In my mother's eyes, my mother,
Each of her tears pushes me to make her proud, my mother
(Diam's) I'm 20 years old, and I have the life everyone talks about, a little woman I came to rap my flame, my 20 years, I lived them in the shadows with only one desire, love and to devour the world, but I'll never be 20 years old in my father's eyes, my father, each of his absences pushes me to make her proud, my mother
Chorus:
I'm 20 years old,
They say I have my whole life ahead of me
That happiness is over there
That with time everything goes away
I'm 20 years old
They say you'll grow up and see
I'm telling you nothing goes well, with time everything goes wrong
At 20 years old,
You start to love men,
Until the day they steal your 20 years
Despite the time hitting you
You give and give your 20 years
To life and death
If it can prove they're wrong
They're wrong to believe that at 20 years old
All young people still dream
(Diam's) At 20 years old, you start to love life, it's the age of freedom, you have some vice in front of the risks, you dodge, you're 20 years old and you have the strength of winners and nothing scares you because your heart has already been broken, you're in your twenties and lost on this planet, you dream of Adam and Eve not just of glitz and glamour, you're 20 years old, you're fragile but you're the future of this country, you know your life is like Amel and Melanie's
Chorus
Just yesterday I was 20 years old,
Just yesterday, I wanted to shake people up, to notice my time
Just yesterday I was 20 years old,
Just yesterday, I wanted to shake people up, to notice my time
Chorus (X2)
OoOh 20 years...
