Khali Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Booty fat dans son jean (dans son jean)
Fais key à ta Valentine (fais gaffe à ta valentine)
Fais key à ta Valentine
J'ai pas d'tise mais j'suis bien
Fuck key behind, serait tant qu'tu t'fasses un billet
J'vais encaisser, ré-encaisser, ré-encaisser
J'vais encaisser, ré-encaisser, ré-encaisser
Bouge son boule sur la piste, finit sur ma D (shit, ooh)
Bientôt dans l'camp des riches on m'dit c'est garanti
Arrête la musique Khali 'faudrait qu'tu lises'
Pour le cash allons-y, pour le cash allons-y
J'aime pas traîner en ville, y'a que des jbebs ici
Traîne qu'avec tes faux, tes yeuc' sont amovibles
J'y vais qu'à moitié et pourtant j'suis l'meilleur et bientôt c'est écrit
J'ai pas de sous, j'vais en cours (j'vais en cours)
J'profite du CROUS y'a pas assez pour faire des courses (y'a pas assez)
J'y vais comme oups, finir broke c'est trop la lose (c'est trop la lose)
Pas en touche, y'a pas l'temps pour faire des pauses (pour faire des pauses)
C'est pas un don c'est du travail (c'est du tra-pose)
Lève-toi tôt, on n'est pas détèr à t'attendre (détèr à ta t'attendre)
On est broke, on est tendance, on est dans l'temps (on est tendance)
Cherche pas plus détèr, ça fait deux ans, j'te mets dans l'vent (j'te mets dans l'vent)
On veut pas d'toi, pourquoi t'es venu?
On veut pas t'voir cracher ton venin
Si c'est pour jacter, faut revenir demain
Tu t'es trompé, j'suis pas ton gamin
On veut pas d'toi, pourquoi t'es venu?
On veut pas t'voir cracher ton venin
Si c'est pour jacter, faut revenir demain
Tu t'es trompé, j'suis pas ton gamin
Big smile garanti (garanti)
Booty fat dans son jean (dans son jean)
Fais key à ta Valentine (fais gaffe à ta valentine)
Fais key à ta Valentine
J'ai pas d'tise mais j'suis bien
Fuck key behind, serait tant qu'tu t'fasses un billet
J'vais encaisser, ré-encaisser, ré-encaisser
J'vais encaisser, ré-encaisser, ré-encaisser
C'est la nuit, elle s'agite
Bouge son boule sur la piste, finit sur ma D (shit, ooh)
Bientôt dans l'camp des riches on m'dit c'est garanti
Arrête la musique Khali 'faudrait qu'tu lises'
Pour le cash allons-y, pour le cash allons-y
J'aime pas traîner en ville, y'a que des jbebs ici

The lyrics of Khali's song "Valentine" contain a mix of French and English phrases, making it a unique blend of language and culture. At its core, the song is about confidence, self-assurance, and not caring about others' negative opinions. Khali emphasizes the idea of being true to oneself and not allowing anyone to bring you down.
The opening lines "Big smile garanti (guaranteed), Booty fat dans son jean (booty fat in her jeans)" suggest a sense of self-assurance and body positivity. Khali encourages listeners to be cautious of their "valentine," possibly referring to someone who may interfere with their positive mindset or goals.
The following lines convey Khali's determination to succeed financially. He expresses his willingness to work hard and make money, intending to "encaisser" (cash in) repeatedly. Khali mentions a nightlife scene where people are active and energetic, but he is focused on his own path to wealth and success.
The second verse references a student's life, mentioning the limited financial resources available through the CROUS (Centre régional des œuvres universitaires et scolaires - a French student support system). Khali acknowledges the struggle of not having enough money for expenses, but he remains motivated to avoid being broke. He emphasizes the importance of working hard and not relying on handouts.
The chorus is repeated several times, reiterating the themes of self-confidence and not caring about others' negative opinions. Khali asserts that he is not interested in those who bring negativity and encourages them to come back another day. The chorus also mentions the idea of earning money and the confidence that comes with it.
Overall, "Valentine" is a song that promotes self-assurance, hard work, and confidence in one's abilities, encouraging listeners to focus on their own path to success and not let others' opinions hold them back.

Torn between crying for help
And not letting them see me sweat
But it’s certain shit I can’t forget
I won’t get over it easy
Shit makes me queasy
I am making amends with myself
Forgiving me for loving you
I took a risk loving loudly
Defended you proudly
Ignored all the signs, yeah it’s true
And, the immature me wishes that I could make it known
That you should be left alone
Don’t deserve words or thoughts from me
I can go heal on my own
And, the immature me hopes the world sees just who you are
A facade only gets you so far
And I’m bigger than you, so I can’t meet you where you are
I’d say your name but you don’t deserve recognition
You played the hero but you really are the villain
There ain’t a bone in me that wants to spare your feelings
You called me crazy, but it was my intuition
Used me for status and the fame and recognition
It’s fucking crazy what they do for recognition
I’d say your name but you don’t deserve recognition
I’d say your name but I won’t, uh
I got to give myself credit for loving as hard as I did
I helped you fight your addiction and change your whole life
Just to find myself played in the end
Ain’t no regrets cause I’m proud that my heart was so pure
And I’m never ashamed of my love
Now I’m finding strength in the fact that your nothing to me
And I know the things I am above
And, the immature me wishes I could just runaway
To somewhere I still feel sane
‘Cause truth is I’ve been fucking lost since that very day
And, really I’m wishing that I could just catch a break
It’s been hell every couple days
And now I’m here broken expected to carry the weight
I’d say your name but you don’t deserve recognition
You played the hero but you really are the villain
There ain’t a bone in me that wants to spare your feelings
You called me crazy, but it was my intuition
Used me for status and the fame and recognition
It’s fucking crazy what they do for recognition
I’d say your name but you don’t deserve recognition
I’d say your name but I won’t, uh
That’s just you (That’s just you)
I always land on my feet
Bounce back getting clean and neat
Wish I didn’t check your text when you was drunk sleep
I’ve seen everything I didn’t want to see
That I needed to see
That I needed it to be
Hope you live happily ever after with the bitch
Fly to France wine and crackers honeymoon with the bitch
I hope you fuck around and have the son you wanted with the bitch
You might be so amazed after all of this (So)
Out on the table your friends and your family, even your label
Everyone love me, damn its so shameful
I kept you stable, you should be grateful
Ain’t find out sooner that you was unfaithful
Damn you’re so shameful
So fucking shameful
Damn you’re so… fucking ungrateful

[Verse 1]
Torn between crying for help
And not lettin' them see me sweat

Forgiving me for loving you
I took a risk loving loudly, defended you proudly
Ignored all the signs, yeah, it's true
[Pre-Chorus]
And the immature me wishes that I could make it known
That you should be left alone
Don't deserve words or thoughts from me
I can go heal on my own
And the immature me hopes the world sees just who you are, oh
A facade only gets you so far
And I'm bigger than you, so I can't meet you where you are
[Chorus]
I'd say your name but you don't deserve recognition
You played the hero but you really are the villain

It's fuckin' crazy what they do for recognition

I'd say your name but I won't, uh
[Verse 2]
I got to give myself credit for loving as hard as I did

You played the hero but you really are the villain
There ain't a bone in me that wants to spare your feelings (Ah)
You called me crazy, but it was my intuition (Ah)
Used me for status and the fame and recognition (Ah)
It's fucking crazy what they do for recognition (Ooh)
I'd say your name but you don't deserve recognition

Hope you live happily ever after with the bitch (Bitch), uh

Hope you fuck around and have the son you wanted with the bitch
[Outro]
Y'all might be soulmates after all of this, so

I ain’t find out sooner that you was unfaithful
Damn, you so shameful
So fucking shameful
Damn, you're so, uh, fucking ungrateful, uh

“The immature me hopes the world sees who you are” 😩

Tianna Monae I felt that part 💯
@tiannamonae6495
Everyone else will always be outsiders looking in. The ones who will ever feel how we feel. Are the ones who’s been through it. I haven’t had a song on repeat in so long.
