Kyoto
Joke Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

[Intro]
Belve, glaçons
Mojo, plafond
J'viens tisser des liens #Peter Parker
Araignée au plafond
Mojo à fond
Tous les jours dans le building sauf le 11 septembre
Dans la direction du regard de ta pétasse
On est, pausés là avec classe
On cherche même pas les salopes
On vient gonfler la cagnotte
Faire fortune avec 3 notes
Arrêter d'stresser la daronne
Eh yo pendant ce temps là, des chiennes me cherchent sur adopte #S.P.A
Respect à mes gars sûrs les Monsieurs Gang
Négro j'en ai rien à foutre de ce game
Je compte même pas rester là
J'suis en direct de la paillade
Ta meuf s'maquille comme Rama Yade
Donne moi les chiffres du loto
Que j'prenne un billet pour Kyoto
[Outro x2]
Pas la peine d'te dire d'lever ton verre en l'air
Croise moi dans le club avec une belle anglaise




Tous tes gars sont très lents, partout je peux tré-ren
Yo négro paw j'ai mon fer en guest

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Kyoto" by Joke are a combination of braggadocio and casual observations of his surroundings. In the intro, he mentions a few things in quick succession – Belvedere (a brand of luxury vodka), ice cubes, Mojo (possibly referring to the popular energy drink of the same name), and the ceiling. He then compares himself to superhero Peter Parker (aka Spider-Man) by saying he's "weaving webs" and "spidering on the ceiling". The line about Mojo à fond could be interpreted as Joke being hyped up and full of energy.


The next few lines mention the World Trade Center attacks on 9/11, but Joke says they're there every day except that day – seemingly referencing his presence and importance. He also mentions ignoring the attention of women on dating app Adopte Un Mec (which is translated as Adopt A Guy), and being with his crew "avec classe" (with class). They're not looking for women ("les salopes"), but rather making money with just three notes – possibly a reference to the simplicity of their music-making process. Joke then mentions wanting to relieve his mother of stress, and while he does that, women are looking for him. He gives a shoutout to his "sûrs" (safe) guys in the Monsieur Gang, and says he doesn't care about the current state of the music industry or "game". He plans to leave soon, and is currently in the Paillade neighborhood of Montpellier. He ends by asking for the winning lottery numbers so he can buy a ticket to Kyoto (the capital city of Japan), which could be interpreted as a desire for escape or aspiration for luxury.


Overall, the lyrics of "Kyoto" portray Joke as a confident and ambitious rapper who is aware of his surroundings and doesn't take things too seriously. He makes references to pop culture, recent history, and specific locations, but ties them together in a way that highlights his own persona and aspirations.
