Dans Nos Rues

To get by, all I got left is my pen
It's either that or I'm gonna end up in the pen
Fuck the system, check out where we’re at, man
Trying to fix things, is it worth the pain?
I don’t think so, and that’s what hurts me
Life’s an extreme sport, full of problems
The strongest are full because it’s the hustle that leads
Life’s a bitch, does that make me a son of a bitch?
In my world, a lot of us didn’t finish school
But when it’s time to make a deal, we’re all fools
Thugs! That’s how we grew up
Never underestimate someone who seems nice
Some want to see you fall, they’re dying of envy
Now there are whores hanging out on Chambly street
They’ll do anything because they’ve got nothing left in life

Chorus
In my world, you never know what might happen
It’s all fucked up
These days, the kids who smoke, it’s not just pot anymore
In the game for debts that have gone too far, take a shot

Those you think you know, you know, you think
In my mind, I’ve lost my sense of trust
These days, trusting is taking chances
Everyone’s backstabbing; it doesn’t even make sense anymore
Jealousy, it’s a disease
Some have left for stupid shit
Your best friend can become your worst enemy
All the guys together, that time is over
The cops don’t treat us like anyone else
Come see what’s happening, you’ll be shocked
Politicians pretend not to hear our cries
Wherever this goes, we’ll do it for our kids
We got bills to pay
We got shit to clear
I give my respect as long as I’m respected
We don’t have time to wait and mess around
We gotta do what we gotta do

Chorus
In my world, you never know what might happen
It’s all fucked up
These days, the kids who smoke, it’s not just pot anymore
In the game for debts that have gone too far, take a shot

Welcome to our streets, some find it too raw
Because we talk about drugs, dirty money, and sex
You’ve just seen it, we’ve lived it
It’s no joke, I’m still broke, I don’t even have smokes
Even without smokes, life chokes me and there are plenty more
In this dope world, if it blows up, it’s not our fault
In this dope world, some are losing their bolts

Chorus
In my world, you never know what might happen
It’s all fucked up
These days, the kids who smoke, it’s not just pot anymore
In the game for debts that have gone too far, take a shot
