Polaroid Experience

Polaroid Experience

Yeah
Lunar inspiration 'cause around here, faith is strong
I got popular but my vibe is underground
We prefer to keep it simple, we grew up with little
Cousin, you know being humble is already believing in God
New adventure, screw the jealous haters
But who are these creatures? I only fear their creator
I’m not the son of a white guy, not the son of Zeus
Not the son of Serigne Touba, I’m the son of God
My continent is seriously hurting and I’m thinking
I live among diamonds but I’m drowning in shit
I’m the son of Congo, I’m the son of Kin
I’m the product of a plot, I’m the product of a crime
I had a son before my daughter, that’s the king’s choice
I had a record before my son, that’s the rap game’s choice
I’m a paranoid dad worrying about tomorrow
I’m a father out of love 'cause I never saw my own
I’m a family man, I’m Malik’s dad
And now, imagine I’m Imany’s dad
My mom, she’s my queen, it’s cruel how I miss her
I see her in my dreams, in the light, how she shines
I’m the son of HAN-toinette, it’s in my eyes
Little son of N'Diaye Siby, daughter of Senegal, that’s me
I’m the son of all, our lost ones who hear me
I’m the son of Ya Soukey and all my other aunts
Music is a world, I had to drink it in
I had to make a name to take back the power
Before, they called me, "the son of Tabu Ley"

Now, to call Tabu Ley, they say "the father of Youssoupha"
I’m the blessed son of a huge legacy
I’m the son of a genius, I’m the son of a man
I’m Pegguy’s brother, I’m Charles’s brother
I’m Outi’s uncle, I’m Shay’s uncle
I’m Baba’s brother, I’m Siby’s brother
I’m Lassana’s brother, I’m Nini’s uncle
I was an only child but I have love times a thousand
All the people in my crowd are also my family
I was an only child but I have love times a thousand
All the people in my crowd are also my family
I was an only child but I have love times a thousand
All the people in my crowd are also my family
I was an only child but I have love times a thousand
All the people in my- okay, let it roll, huh

I stopped rapping, heading for a new life
I left Paris, African, my new city
You’re scared of our countries, you think it’s just burning
Damn, open-mindedness isn’t just cracking your skull
Nah, I’m not retired yet, but I’m already stepping back
And I might come back, who remembers the doubters?
Who doubted my career? Today, where are you?
Dude, I’m eternal like FC Liverpool
Trusting men killed my hope
This isn’t an album, it’s a damn experience
Ex, ex-best rapper, I got a mic that squeaks
From now on, the best rapper for me is Tito Prince
Invincible duo, I got the best beats in the world
Cehashi, it’s Da Vinci, damn, I’m the Mona Lisa, eh
The industry is going wild, I’m not answering the call
Screw the boss of Def Jam, I got my own label
It’s Bomayé the comeback, I’m Philo’s partner
I’m the producer of Keblack, I’m the producer of Hiro
I never believed in common friendships in music
Yet, I’ve seen competitors happy for my success
So, I’m friends with Brav, I’m friends with Sopra'
I’m friends with Diam’s, I’m friends with Socrates
I made money and I gained respect
I don’t have the bank account to be Nessbeal’s enemy
I’m Valls’s enemy, I’m Macron’s enemy
I’m Ménard’s enemy, I’m Marion’s enemy
I’m the enemy of the Republic of François Fillon
I’m the enemy of Françafrique and its millions
I’m the enemy of their model, I’m the enemy of their morals
I’m the enemy of BHL, I’m the enemy of Soral
But damn, I’m waiting for fists to rise
Great men aren’t born in greatness, no, they grow
And we’ll come lift you up if you fall, we have the strength in numbers

I was an only child but I have love times a thousand
All the people in my crowd are also my family
I was an only child but I have love times a thousand
All the people in my crowd are also my family
I was an only child but I have love times a thousand
All the people in my crowd are also my family
I was an only child but I have love times a thousand
All the people in my crowd are also my family, Prim's lyricist

Yeah! Since this is the last record, the mic is more viscous
Polaroid experience so we multiply the risks
Why do you want me to stop? I’m still in dispute
I was hated in Maghreb, locked up in Libya
I’m a slave in crisis but none of them impress me
I’m a slave to who? I’m a slave to no one!
They took me for a monster, hope is a quality
They’re waiting for the end of the world, I’m waiting for the beginning of humanity
I’m love in music, love in my city
I’m Gigi’s love, it’s the love of my life
So don’t be afraid, we’re gonna change the world
There are those who ask the time and those who make the watches
I’m the soldier of Médine, rap is a caliber
I’m the soldier of Kery, I’m a soldier of La Ligue
This world is my home, I’m never scared
Many choose to be right, I chose to be happy

I was an only child but I have love times a thousand
All the people in my crowd are also my family
I was an only child but I have love times a thousand
All the people in my crowd are also my family
I was an only child but I have love times a thousand
All the people in my crowd are also my family
I was an only child but I have love times a thousand
All the people in my crowd are also my family.
