[Couplet 1: Sultan]
J'ai trop compté les jours, enfermé dans ma geôle
Et j'me disais qu'en vrai, j'étais mieux dans mon hall
J'ai trop passé mon temps à insulter le temps
A vouloir camoufler mon peu de sentiments
On subit le présent, on regrette le passé
Chez nous on craint l'avenir, on se sent menacés
Les huissiers à ma porte, des factures dans nos lettres
Y'a que ma solitude qui perçoit mon mal-être
Avec mes frères et soeurs, on affronte les épreuves
On surmonte les galères, oui on a fait nos preuves
Souvent le ciel est gris, plus tard le soleil brille
Non faut pas s'attacher, tout fini par passer
[Refrain: La Fouine]
Encore un nouveau jour, plus rien n'est plus pareil
J'ai plus de problèmes que la veille
J'ai beau marché seul dans la cour à en perdre le sommeil
J'ai plus de problèmes que la veille
Que la ve-e-eille, e-e-eille
La chance on a du faire sans elle
Que la ve-e-eille, e-e-eille
Encore une autre journée sans 'seille
[Couplet 2: Sultan]
Oui la vie m'a fait mal, j'lui ai rendu les coups
Mon nom au tribunal devient numéro d'écrou
Espérant qu'la roue tourne, on a roulé nos bosses
Rien n'se passe comme prévu car souvent les choses se corsent
Au milieu dl'a cité, on s'prend pour les rois du monde
Les soucis nous rattrapent, tout bascule à la s'conde
Oui j'ai purgé ma peine, à Fleury-Mérogis
Mais si jamais j'y retourne, ça fera de moi un égoïste
J'ai fait pleuré ma mère, j'ai attristé mon père
J'ai éteint les lumières qui me servaient de repères
Toujours sur la défensive, on a pris de sales manies
Plusieurs dans nos taudis, les cafards tiennent compagnie
[Refrain: La Fouine]
[Couplet 3: La Fouine]
Yeah, p'tit frère fait pas le thug si t'es calme comme un slam
P'tite soeur ta vie est un échec car tu joues trop aux dames
Plus d'oseille que la veille, plus de 'blèmes que la veille
Les matons me surveillent, la liberté en mode veille, khey
J'ai vu mon avenir dans une bouteille
Bienvenue en banlieue, seul le rap, le foot, le crime paie
La mort ne fait jamais semblant tandis que la vie simule
Banlieue Sale, S-Kal, l'histoire continue
[Transition: Sultan]
La cité dans mon rétro, une villa à l'horizon
Je suis porteur d'espoir comme les clés de la prison
J'suis bien un enfant d'ici, j'aspire à viser ailleurs
Sur le quai d'ma réussite car j'attends des jours meilleurs
[Refrain]
[Outro]
Tu sais mzé, tout finit par passer
Même les pires situations
Hier j'tournais dans les promenades de Fleury
Aujourd'hui j'tourne dans toutes les villes des France
Si le temps c'est de l'argent
Les richesses se dévoile à qui attend son heure
Banlieue Sale, S-Kal, l'histoire continue
Sultan is the musical project of the duo composed by Pete Namlook and Burhan Öçal. Active since 1989, the group has significantly contributed to the birth and development of ambient techno, a genre that blends elements of experimental electronic music with relaxing and meditative atmospheres. Namlook, a German producer known for his collaborations with artists like Klaus Schulze, and Öçal, a Turkish musician specializing in traditional instruments, have created a unique sound characterized by ethereal melodies, pulsating rhythms, and evocative sonic landscapes. Among their most important albums are "The Sultan's Dream" (1990) and "Ambient 3: The Journey" (1992).
