Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Trust's song On Lèche On Lâche On Lynche tell a story about the struggles of everyday life and highlight the experiences of those who are often left behind by society. The first verse talks about the daily routine of many working-class people who have to endure difficult jobs and long hours just to make ends meet. The second verse is about the harsh realities of poverty and how it can lead to desperation and crime. The chorus then brings up the idea of lynching, which is a symbol of the brutal violence that is often present in society.
