Derrière le brouillard (feat. Grand Corps Malade)

And in the dark, behind the fog
I hear this piano sing
Singing hope, the desire to believe
That we can reinvent everything

So I join my voice once again
To withstand the storm
I join my voice once again
To find the courage

There's no recipe, to endure the trials
To go back up the rivers, when tragedies rain down
There's no recipe, to bear the dramas
To cross the seas by rowing, when the dream charms you

There's no recipe, when you didn't have one either
No one warned you, you fought as best you could
There's no recipe, when hell shakes your hand
To give up is human, the future is far

But you started to sing, not even by choice
Like with every fall, every time, it imposed itself on you
Singing, like a surprised child
Like a survival instinct, like a moment of fury

Singing to accept, to express
To resist, to move forward, to progress, to exist
Singing like a resilience, a deliverance
Singing like an evidence

And in the dark, behind the fog
I hear this piano sing
Singing hope, the desire to believe
That we can reinvent everything

So I join my voice once again
To withstand the storm
I join my voice once again
To find the courage

At what moment do you understand that it's your thing?
That music returns to lift you up from every fall
At what moment do you know it's your compass?
When life punishes you, music consoles you

At what moment did this piano sing?
Its chords haunted you, cherished your health
At what moment is it your breath?
And at what moment do we turn it into a song?

If I feel like a child
I've already had several lives
I can look ahead
Singing what was taken from me

I too, have known a kind of fog
And I heard this piano in the distance
And me too, without really foreseeing it
Naturally, my voice joins hers

We don't have the same stories at all
But ultimately a few common points
Like a touch of oratory strength
I write, you sing, the fog is far away

And in the dark, behind the fog
I hear this piano sing
Singing hope, the desire to believe
That we can reinvent everything

So I join my voice once again
To withstand the storm
I join my voice once again
To find the courage
