He emphasizes that while aging is inevitable, true maturity is a choice, a sentiment taught to him by his mother.

The song also explores Youssoupha's relationship with rap music, portraying it as a reciprocal bond where the genre has given back to him as much as he has contributed.

Despite the hardships, Youssoupha remains resilient, using his music as a platform to express his struggles and triumphs. The song ultimately serves as a testament to the power of connection, both with oneself and with others, and the enduring impact of staying true to one's roots and values.
