DES COUPS QUI ONT ÉTÉ BATTUS
c’est elle, c’est moi, c’est nous,
nous vivons tous dans le même flou
tu viens d’ici, je viens de là
nous avons tous une histoire comme celle-là
nous avons tous des instants de respect perdus
des coups qui ont été battus, et je me suis aperçu
que nos murs s’élèvent et s’assombrissent
quand on sent qu’on vit à la périphérie
BEATINGS THAT HAVE BEEN BEATEN
(Translation)
it’s her, it’s me, it’s us
we are all living in the same blur
you come from here, I come from there
we all have a story like this
we all have moments of lost respect
beatings that have been beaten, and i have noticed
that our walls grow and darken
when we feel like we live on the periphery
LONGING
when i was a little girl
adults told me to fear you
to feel lucky that i wasn’t you
fully at least
so i pushed you away
every part of you
your physicality
any relation of me to you
i made myself overly not you
in an attempt to fit in
to the environment i was in
i lost every part of you
every memory
any connection
to find you again
those voices that told me
to reject you
are the reason
i am now longing
to know you
to embrace you
and to be proud to be you
L'INTERMINABLE FIN
ce que je comprends complètement
c’est l’amour inconditionnel que je ressens
cet amour, ce sentiment qui m’entoure
je le sens quand on danse au rythme du tambour
c’est facil de se perdre dans la vélocité
dans ce monde rempli d’homogénéité
mais ensembles et séparés, nous sommes uniques
et avec nos différences nous sommes unis
car même si nous avons tous des irrégularités
nous voulons tous lutter contre l’altérité
THE UNFINISHED END
(Translation)
something that i understand completely
is the unconditional love that i feel
that love, that feeling surrounds me
i feel it when we dance to the rhythm of the drum
its easy to lose yourself in the velocity
in this world full of homogeny
but together and apart, we are unique
and with our differences we are united
because even with our irregularities
we all want to fight against otherness
BEGINNING
I have finally found you
found parts of you in my being
naturally organically there
a part of me
I pushed you away
every part of you
your physicality
any relation of me to you
but you were always here
running through me
you never left
I now find myself
remembering
piecing you together
finding how I can be more you
I am making my own sound now
to accept, you
are the reason
I am now beginning
to know you
to embrace you
and to be proud to be you
