M.a.n.u militari
voix d'fait crime d'honneur j'décris la vie
marée humaine chus reparti pour une tournée d'trente lunes
les anciens d'la tribu m'ont surnommé grande plume
ma squaw est dans l'tipi devant l'plasma
elle m'dit fuck la t.v, tes clips ils les passent pas
t'inquiète, je remonte le fleuve avec le flow d'la mort
jte ramènerai d'mes shows billets et peaux d'castor
tam-tam de guerre, calumé bourré d'pot
performance au pôle nord on bronze en dessous des spots
j'fais la traite d'images-rimes avec d'la peinture lettrée
pis j'mets les scalps d'mc à ma ceinture fléchée
j'écris l'nouvel album mais la pression m'écrase
j'finis pas d'texte à force de r'mettre en question mes phrases
j'explore les fonds humains, j'décris mes découvertes
j'déverse une écriture salée sur plaie ouverte
j'veux tatouer les consciences mais j'ai rien d'un prophète
chus un mésadapté social qui s'imagine poète
j'aspire à faire danser jambes, sexes, coeurs et cervelles
avant qu'mon âme rejoigne les prairies éternelles
j'mouvre les veines, jvomis un flow d'marée
humaine, le pharaon semble plus savoir nager
chus un sultan hôtel, dehors le bruit m'parle
j'entends un printemps fleurir à travers une pluie d'balles
j'ramène espoir de vivre sans conter d'contes de fée
j'me rends compte chus heureux seulement quand j'compte le blé
chus un esclave en fuite, j'amorce une marche vitale
avec des thèmes à explorer qui vont faire archi-mal
refrain
les requins d'l'industrie reniflent ma fraîcheur
mais ch'pas un poisson, selon l'église chus un pêcheur
libre penseur, ils m'ont pris pour un gauchiste
moi j'me prends pour un artiste imcompris comme un autiste
parole d'homme hyper sensible, j'rationalise
ch'trop humain pour être à cent pour cent nationaliste
respect au roi d'la jungle, rip jack layton
les hommes crèvent mais les idées restent quand le peuple les veulent
mais tous les hommes sont destructeurs à leur échelle
facile d'mettre la faute sur esso, ultramar et shell
le problème est en moi chus bon qu'a m'reproduire
a faire la peau d'mon voisin quand j'ai besoin d'un manteau de cuir
j'veux réfléchir mais préserve-moi des extrêmes
laisse-moi hair l'homme mais dire à mes fils que j'les aime
emporte-moi loin de c'que leurs études enseignent
l'esprit est un libertin qu'les certitudes enferment
