Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Every, everything around me, 'round me
Bounce, bounce
Cash, cash
Every, everything around me, 'round me
Bounce, bounce
Cash, cash
Every, everything around me, 'round me

Les temps changent, on connait plus l'nom des fleurs
On prend la tangente, l'amertume au fond des cœurs
Fumer pendant des heures, les frelons font des tours
Les frelons font des maths puis les frelons montent un four
Parle-moi d'voyages, j'ai préparé mon paquetage
Un trajet long comme le blaze d'un malgache
Toucher l'horizon mais tu touches rien à part le SMIC
Les poumons encrassés, l'haleine fermentée par le shit
Vas-y quitte, ton tieks à pas d'barreau
À force de sky, Clyde Barrow devient Jack Paro
J'veux pas qu'ma dernière vision soit un quai d'métro
Donc j'checke les collègues de l'épaule
Et embrasse ceux tout près d'mes cotes
Ça tise le cognac, demande à Kolia
Ici, on consomme un poison doux comme la goyave
Fonce tête baissée, essaie
Laisse la Terre faire un tour et reprends là où tu l'avais laissée (everything around me)

Sept, cinq
Bounce, bounce
Cash, cash
Everything around me, 'round me
Bounce, bounce
Cash, cash
Everything around me, 'round me

Sourds à tout c'que ces gens disent, on fait nos trucs en soum
Slalome entre la soupe, tu peux dire si ça t'saoule
La matière de mes rêves pétrit mes cauchemars
Tu viens chercher ta 10 mais l'gars est au chtar
Ton chemin d'croix s'résume à faire l'bavon
Demande à Sheldavon, on est blindés comme des ailes d'avion
À chaque pas que j'fais, j'me rappelle que j'suis bien entouré
Dédicace à Adnan dans la foulée
Tu veux que j'bicrave mon ressenti, hm pas d'problème
Je m'en irai sur une île avec un sac d'oseille
Pour mes sales gosses, même, qui font les dièses
Avec un pack d'eau fraîche, bail de drive-by en tractopelle
Sourire amer, ici, un rien m'transporte
Les yeux plissés, le rire d'un grincement de porte, vois où ça mène
J'personnifie la distance qu'y a entre drôle et gole-ri
Le dièse est torride, ils songent à arrêter leurs conneries (everything around me)

Bounce, bounce
Cash, cash
Everything around me, 'round me
Bounce, bounce
Cash, cash
Everything around me, 'round me

Bounce, bounce
Cash, cash
Everything around me, 'round me
Bounce, bounce

Cash, cash
Everything around me, 'round me

Overall Meaning

Népal’s song Skyclub is a commentary on the changing times and how they impact our perception of life. The lyrics talk about how people are disconnected from nature and emotional resonance in the modern world, instead being consumed by material pursuits. The chorus of the song repeats the lines “Every, everything around me, ‘round me, Bounce, bounce, Cash, cash”, emphasizing the importance of money and material possessions.

The first verse of the song talks about how times have changed and people no longer appreciate the beauty of nature. “Les temps changent, on connait plus l'nom des fleurs” (The times have changed, we no longer know the names of flowers). The verse goes on to describe the monotony of life, spending hours smoking and drinking, while bees do their math for honey production. The second verse talks about the pursuit of happiness through material means. Népal raps about his own personal desire to travel and see the world, and the never-ending cycle of working to make ends meet. He then speaks of the poisonous lifestyle, with his lungs filled with smoke and his spirit dampened by the use of drugs.

Overall, the song reflects a sense of detachment from the real world, and how people’s priorities are skewed towards materialistic pleasures. The lyrics emphasize the importance of self-reflection and the need to re-evaluate our priorities to find true contentment in life.

Others may try to bring you down, but keep on doing your own thing, even if it means slaloming through obstacles. Stay focused on your dreams and ambitions, but don't forget the people who matter to you. When times get tough, remember to smile and find joy in the small things, even if it's a simple, dangerous life of making money and escaping trouble.

Bounce, bounce Cash, cash Everything around me, 'round me
Still all about that money and bouncing around in life.
