Flash
Stéphanie Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Qui allumera
Des mots nouveaux dedans ma tête?
Qui déshabillera
Mon rire qui pleure sous les paillettes?

Viens, j'ai sur les lèvres
Le goût amer des fruits sauvages
J'maquille le ciel, j'déguise tous les oiseaux
En avion de guerre

Flash pour le jour, flash pour la nuit
Sans mise au point, je vis ma vie
Les yeux plantés dans les étoiles
Ça passe ou ça casse (ça)

Flash pour l'amour, flash pour la vie
J'aime pas les films au ralenti
J'change les couleurs, j'repeins la toile
Le cœur en bataille

Le cœur en bataille
Le cœur en bataille

Qui m'emportera
Où le soleil jamais ne bouge?
Qui arrêtera
Ma vie qui brûle tous les feux rouges?

Viens, dépêche-toi
J'ai peur du vide qui danse sa danse
Mes rêves s'envolent plus loin que la folie
J'touche plus jamais terre

Flash pour le jour, flash pour la nuit
Sans mise au point, je vis ma vie
Les yeux plantés dans les étoiles
Ça passe ou ça casse

Flash pour l'amour, flash pour la vie
Arrive avant, le mot fini
Avant que tous mes trains déraillent
Le cœur en bataille (ça)

Flash pour le jour, flash pour la nuit
Sans mise au point, je vis ma vie
Les yeux plantés dans les étoiles
Ça passe ou ça casse (ça)

Flash pour l'amour, flash pour la vie
J'aime pas les films au ralenti
J'change les couleurs, j'repeins la toile
Le cœur en bataille

(Le cœur en bataille
Flash
Le cœur en bataille)

Flash pour le jour, flash pour la nuit
Sans mise au point, je vis ma vie
Les yeux plantés dans les étoiles
Ça passe ou ça casse (ça)

Flash pour l'amour, flash pour la vie
J'aime pas les films au ralenti




J'change les couleurs, j'repeins la toile
Le cœur en bataille

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Stephanie's song "Flash" are a vivid but disturbing depiction of a troubled individual who finds himself engaging in violent and erratic behavior. The song's protagonist initially appears to be under the influence of Boyd Dawg, which could be interpreted as a type of drug. The lyrics reference violence and provide a glimpse into the gritty realities of growing up in the hood, where normal societal codes of right and wrong are often thrown out the window.


The lyrics suggest that the singer is a "knucklehead" who "never knew right from wrong" and is prone to explosive rages. He talks about "dumping on a nigga for no reason" and "taking a nigga out for trying to go between my motherfuckin paper route." He seems to view the world as a cutthroat place where you either take what you want or get taken advantage of.


The lyrics also paint a picture of a man who is deeply conflicted and tormented by the traumas of his past. He talks about how he witnessed his mother stab his father in the stomach with a knife when he was three years old and how this event shaped his worldview. He confesses that he turned to selling cocaine to cope with the aftermath of this trauma, and he appears to be struggling with addiction and feelings of emptiness and despair.


Overall, the lyrics to "Flash" are a raw and unfiltered look into the mind of a man who is struggling to find his way in a violent and unforgiving world. The song is a reminder of the harsh realities that many people face every day, and it underscores the importance of supporting those who are struggling with addiction, trauma, and mental health issues.

What a shame... Princess Stephanie should have been a huge pop star... I love all of her songs... btw, please stop saying that "Princess Stephanie" is a man... just because Stephanie had an androgynous look to her... That didn't mean that she was a man... Her looks were very sexy, at least to me they were, that's what made Princess Stephanie super special... I applaud 👏👏👏 Princess Stephanie for never having any kind of plastic surgery, God knows that Princess Stephanie is super-rich, and she can afford to have plastic surgery... She just let nature take over her looks... Unlike today's women that have too many plastic surgeries... "Beautiful Stephanie Grimaldi of Monaco" 💙
