Désolé

In 'Désolé,' Sexion D'Assaut delves into the emotional turmoil of feeling overwhelmed by societal and familial expectations. The song's protagonist expresses a deep sense of regret and sorrow, particularly towards his parents, for the path his life has taken. He feels neglected by the system, as symbolized by the 'conseillère' who failed to guide him properly. This neglect has led him to make poor decisions, and now he grapples with the consequences, feeling the weight of becoming an 'entité' or a public figure, which he never aspired to be. The recurring theme of wanting to isolate himself underscores his desire to escape from these pressures and find solace away from the chaos of his current life.

The lyrics also touch on the harsh realities of life in Paris, which the artist likens to 'Alcatraz,' a metaphor for feeling trapped and suffocated by the city's demands. The protagonist dreams of a simpler life, one where he can be with his family and live according to his values ('mon dine, mes gosses'). This longing is juxtaposed with the struggles he faces, such as financial difficulties and the bureaucratic 'paperasse' that adds to his frustration. The mention of his grandmother and the inability to visit her due to lack of money highlights the personal sacrifices and emotional toll of his current situation.

Throughout the song, there is a palpable sense of guilt and responsibility. The protagonist feels he has let down not only his family but also his teachers and even his banker. This guilt is compounded by his reflection on his past choices, particularly his decision to pursue music instead of following his father's advice. The song ends on a somber note, with the protagonist acknowledging his humanity and the inevitability of his demise ('je vais finir par clamsé'). 'Désolé' is a poignant exploration of the internal conflict between personal aspirations and external expectations, and the profound impact this struggle can have on one's mental and emotional well-being.
