Hocus Pocus Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
Out of "Vocab! prélude"
Hocus Pocus in the place to be
Procussions check it out one time t-Love
J'voudrais qu'mes mots sonnent comme Check
It out! Que quand t'écoutes tu dises You
Know what it's all about ou bien No doubt
Ces phases qui claquent sur basse
Qui t'bloquent au sol kickent fat
Qui craquent et niquent la console (Come on)
Ma langue a l'histoire
Les racines et le sens
La leur a les stars, le fashion et le slang
(No shit on me) putain d'accent
J'veux l'même dans mes textes
Mais quand j'rappe cain-ri
Tout l'monde me dit Who's next?
Ils me disent tous: " Le yaourt, abandonne "
Alors, en scred
J'fais tourner la MPC et j'improvise Danone
Sur mon coin d'hexagone, j'examine la donne
Entre Shakespeare, Stallone, j'expire
Tâtonne
Pour trouver mon truc, assumer mon langage
Même si chez moi les "R" sonnent
Et que eux les mâchent on a leurs WC
Leurs sandwiches et leurs chewing-gums verts
Et eux ont notre savoir-faire
J'veux pas d'tes "Fuck!", pas d'tes "Shit!"
Pas d'tes "Motherfucker!"
J'veux pas d'tes "Nigga!"
Pas d'tes "Bitch!", pas d'tes "Sucker!"
J'veux pas d'tes "Fuck!", pas d'tes "Shit!"
Pas d'tes "Motherfucker!"
J'veux pas d'tes "Nigga!"
Pas d'tes "Bitch!", pas d'tes "Sucker!"
Know what I'm asking for? Maximum de bruit!
I'm actually asking if you
See a passionate MC
I'm past masking who I be, I paid my dues
It's like: Tout le monde dit: yeah!
If they're playing y'all like déjà-vu
I'm sayin', dude
They givin us the same one liners
Money, drugs, guns, honeys, thugs
Mining for gold, cash
Diamonds in the ears of dead soldiers
Yo, I'm holding fast to rhyming for
The years they left over
Non, oui-oui, be still mon coeur
Sometimes when I be chilling I
Can understand a word
Or two, maybe three, good day six
But most of the time
French rhyme shines in bit's
Many times it's the point that I miss
But if I like it
I bump it but I won't know the gist
I'll humalong a riff mais
J'sais pas c'est quoi
I never know the meaning but
The feeling be raw
Yo, on the regular
Not a church girl she was secular
Not about the money, somebody redirected her
I know I met her at a earlier age
But she don't look the same way on a page
Got a brother confused and I
Ain't willing to lose
You can believe me a fool and it's cool
Cause after all, it's music, I tell her
Je ne parle pas français
But when the rhythm is cool
It doesn't matter if together we move
Come on
J'veux pas d'tes "Fuck!", pas d'tes "Shit!"
Pas d'tes "Motherfucker!"
J'veux pas d'tes "Nigga!"
Pas d'tes "Bitch!", pas d'tes "Sucker!"
J'veux pas d'tes "Fuck!", pas d'tes "Shit!"
Pas d'tes "Motherfucker!"
J'veux pas d'tes "Nigga!"
Pas d'tes "Bitch!", pas d'tes "Sucker!"
J'leur ai piqué des mots de ci de là
Et mon champ lexical vaut
Pas plus d'6 dollars
J'me prends pas pour J dilla, loin d'là
Je reste fan, bref, j'idolâtre plein de gars
(One love) parce que trop d'classiques me
Mettent presque en transe
Mais parfois j'tombe de haut quand
J'en saisis le sens on s'moque du fond tant
Qu'on atteint la cible
Résultat: plus de bips que
De mots intelligibles:
Let's that motherf in the, Pardon?
Once again? Nan, nan, nan, passons
J'aime ma langue natale
Mais j'dirai fatalement
Qu'elle a la musicalité
D'un régiment allemand je suis né ici
Pas à NYC et parfois plutôt fier
Quand j'arrive à faire
Chanter c'foutu vocabulaire
On a leurs sodas
Le best of du business de Bush fils
Et eux ont notre French kiss
J'veux pas d'tes "Fuck!", pas d'tes "Shit!"
Pas d'tes "Motherfucker!"
J'veux pas d'tes "Nigga!"
Pas d'tes "Bitch!", pas d'tes "Sucker!"
J'veux pas d'tes "Fuck!", pas d'tes "Shit!"
Pas d'tes "Motherfucker!"
J'veux pas d'tes "Nigga!"
Pas d'tes "Bitch!", pas d'tes "Sucker!"

I wish my words sound like (Check it out !)
That when you lisen you say (You know what it's all about) or (No doubt)
Those sentences that slam on the bass and stick you on the ground
Kickent fat, that cracks and that fuck the console (Come on !)
My language has history, roots and sense
Their has stars, the fashion and the slang (No shit on me)
Fucking accent, I want the same on my lyrics
But when I rap cain-ri, everybody say to me (Who's next ?)
They all tell : "yogurt, give up" (yogurt = metaphor for white dude)
So, in secret, I run the MPC and improvise "Danone" (a yogurt commercial)
On my corner of hexagon, I look at the situation
Between Shakespeare, Stalone, I breath, fumble
To find my thing, endorse my language
Même si chez moi les "R" sonnent et que eux les mâchent
Even if for me the "R" sound when they chewing their
We have their WC, their Sandwishes and their green chewing-gums
And they have our "know-how"
(R :)
Don't want your "Fuck !", not your "Shit !", pas your "Motherfucker !"
Don't want your "Nigga !", not your "Bitch !", not your "Sucker !"
I stole them some words here and there
And my lexical field is not worth more than 6 dollars
I don't prentend to be J. Dilla, far from there
I'm still fan, I glorify a lot of guys (One love)
because to mch classics almost put me in a trans
but some time I fall from high when I grasp the meaning
We don't care of the meaning whenever we reach the target
Result : more "bip" than smart words :
Let's ** that motherf*** in the ***, Sorry ?
Once again ? No, no, no, moving on...
I like my mother language but I will finally say
That it as the musicality of a german regiment
I'm born here, not in NYC and sometime proud of it
When I succed to make that fucking vocabulary sound
We have their sodas, the best of Bush son's business
And they have our French kiss
