Toujours (et toujours)

Oh baby
Oh baby

As the peace of our neighborhoods fades away
Speeches that scare settle in, I testify
Who possesses the healing remedy?
What is the right balance of gentleness and firmness?

In any case, we don't have the right to mention the non-place
We are all guilty of not opening our eyes
We are too despicable and we all want to believe in God
Violence in man is a heinous crime

But we won't be fooled despite the decades
We spent in the background despite all the troubles
When the noose tightens, we redouble our energy
With one knee on the ground, the fight continues

Always and always
As long as there is love in our hearts
Always and always
Always and always
As long as there is love in our hearts
Always and always

My neighbors are asleep in peace
Not a sound
The neighborhood has returned its silence to the night
No tears, no cries
We should celebrate that, but the heart is not in it
Who knows why
We feel excluded and punished
Forgotten by the law

But when some say they are in place
That nothing surpasses them
Who, for a high price, move
Always in first class
I say good for them
I can do without all that
I prefer to turn up the bass
And give shoutouts

Always and always
As long as there is love in our hearts
Always and always
Always and always
As long as there is love in our hearts
Always and always

Apparently, they are blind in Parliament
They do not perceive the distress of the poor people
Who would like to live in peace right now
Who would like to eat and be housed decently
Who do not want to be forced to be violent anymore
And no longer see prisons fill up with their children
Who would like to live happily simply
And stop repeating that it was better before

But if we have to go to work every day
To feed the family risking prison
That is not a life, not a real solution
We don't want that, that's why we will fight

Always and always
As long as there is love in our hearts
Always and always
Always and always
As long as there is love in our hearts
Always and always
