Yamaha
Triplego Lyrics

The lyrics to Triplego's song "Yamaha" speak of a relationship that is characterized by two people constantly coming and going from each other's lives. The chorus emphasizes the fluidity of their relationship, with the line "Tu pars, tu reviens" (you leave, you come back) repeated throughout. The verses describe the emotional landscape of the relationship, with the first verse expressing a desire for closeness ("Rani m3ak/Rani m3aha" - I am with you/I am with her) and the second verse detailing a sense of isolation and detachment ("Même avec eux je suis tout seul" - Even with them, I am alone). The final lines of the song reference a woman who twerks and cries, suggesting a sense of overwhelming emotion and perhaps even pain.

Interestingly, the chorus of the song contains an allusion to a famous French song by Charles Aznavour, "Comme ils disent," with the line "Comme la fraîcheur du matin" ("like the freshness of the morning") echoing the line "Comme un éclat de rire" ("like a burst of laughter") from Aznavour's song. This reference adds a layer of cultural depth to the lyrics, demonstrating the influence of French songwriting on contemporary French hip-hop.

Another notable aspect of the song is its use of imagery, particularly in the second verse where the singer describes their sense of isolation in vivid terms. The reference to a "12g" suggests a shotgun, implying violence or danger, while the line "Ton visage caresse les anges" (Your face caresses the angels) is both poetic and eerie, suggesting that the singer's partner may be verging on death or a similar fate.
