L'Equilibre Est Fragile

The balance is fragile, the situation is difficult
Don't play with fire, you can get burned
The balance is fragile, the situation is difficult
Life is not so easy, you can lose or win
The balance is fragile, the situation is difficult
I walk carefully or you will get lost
The balance is fragile, the situation is difficult
Be careful, be careful, be careful, you can fall

There are so many people who lose their minds
Who live their lives like in a bad fiction
In their daily lives too many exclusions, too much pressure
Sooner or later they let themselves slide to the bottom
Here below life, my brother, is not all roses
No one gives you gifts, it's not television
Here below crime pays, everyone knows it
Whether at the bottom of the projects or in the corridors of power
Everyone thinks they are strong
Everyone thinks they are invincible
You're heading straight into the scenery
Your madness hangs by a thread

I live in a world where reality mixes with fiction
People live their dreams and their lives vicariously
Happiness is bought on credit, so you have to pay the price
It only reinforces frustration and jealousy
Politicians extol the benefits of civilization to us
But their power rests on misery and exploitation
Wars are money
Alliances are money
Weapons and drugs are money
Death is a business that pays
Everyone thinks they are strong
Everyone thinks they are invincible
You're heading straight into the scenery
Your madness hangs by a thread

And yet I still hold hope
And yet I hope that one day we will emerge from this nightmare
I believe in the eyes of that smiling child
I believe in the vibration that makes spirits grow
