Si on s'croise, sûr, ça tire à vue
Après y a les statistiques
T'es admis au CHU
Dans un état critique, c'est pas de l'abus (nan)
Dans l'ombre, Nosferatu (oh)
600 chevaux, m'reverras-tu? (Hein)
Les p'tits ont grandi, t'mettent la matraque (ah)
Py-pyromane opérateur
Un mètre payé tout droit
Moteur dopé à mort, des A.K, de la zumba
Cagoulé sur les négatifs du fric et des sédatifs
Amoureux du fer et du feu
J'ai tout mon temps pour le biff, hey (wah)
Gros bénéfice, tu nous prends pour des jeunes hommes
Capuché dans la caisse, Rhum dans mon Seven Up
Quatre roues motrices, 80 dans l'enveloppe
Han, aluminium, aluminium (aluminium)
Gros bénéfice, tu nous prends pour des jeunes hommes
Capuché dans la caisse, Rhum dans mon Seven Up
Quatre roues motrices, 80 dans l'enveloppe (quatre roues motrices, han)
Aluminium, aluminium
.38 sous l'oversize, .38 sous la Northface
J'vais t'enculer, les vrais savent
Si tu pars avec des prothèses
C'est qu'y a moi, mes bandits dans la caisse
Coucou, j'suis v'nu pour ma pièce
Mon cœur n'est pas blanc tant qu'mes yeux parlent
Comme si j'venais reprendre la part des Apes (oh), oh
T'as un larfeuille accroché au pif
C'est sûr qu't'as croisé nos ch'mins
J'ajuste et j'fais des modif'
30 coups, j'peux tirer au pif
Mets mon nom au haut d'l'affiche
P'tit enculé, j'ai plus 20 piges
Passe dans ma rue, abaisse la vitre
Voir si tu prends pas ta gifle (oh)
Gros bénéfice, tu nous prends pour des jeunes hommes
Capuché dans la caisse, Rhum dans mon Seven Up
Quatre roues motrices, 80 dans l'enveloppe
Han, aluminium, aluminium (aluminium)
Gros bénéfice, tu nous prends pour des jeunes hommes (paw)
Capuché dans la caisse, Rhum dans mon Seven Up (mathafack, han)
Quatre roues motrices, 80 dans l'enveloppe (han)
Aluminium, aluminium
The lyrics of SCH's song Aluminium is a depiction of a life filled with violence, greed, and the pursuit of power. The song starts with a warning: if we cross paths, we'd shoot at each other. And even if one is admitted to the hospital in a critical state, it's not considered excessive. This line can be seen as a representation of the reality that those who live this life expect to face. The metaphor of Nosferatu, a vampire who lives in the shadows, further reveals the darkness surrounding the singer's lifestyle. He boasts of having a 600 horsepower engine and wonders if we'll see him again. It's clear that he's trying to flex or show off his wealth and status, potentially as a criminal.
The singer reflects on how the past will always catch up to them. Now, the kids who used to be small have grown and are now wielding batons, a reference to how violence is perpetuated within the community. The line, "amoureux du fer et du feu" (in love with iron and fire), hints at a fascination with guns, explosives, and other forms of weaponry. The singer is also focused on making a profit or "le biff" but remarks how he has all the time in the world to do so. The chorus, "Aluminium," symbolizes the singer's ride, which is presumably made of the metal, and the facade of invincibility that it provides.
