Dreamin'
Youssoupha/Indila/Skalpovich Lyrics

Miss me miss me, you are the one who makes me feel
Expressing how the person they love is an integral part of their life and that they miss them dearly

Makes me feel for real
Their love makes them feel alive and authentic

In the night in the night, you know when I close my eyes
When they close their eyes, the person they love is the only thing they can think about

I can hear your voice for ever
Their loved one's voice is so memorable that it stays with them even in their dreams

I'm dreaming, singing, hoping, smiling
Their love has inspired them to dream, sing, hope, and smile

Giving flying falling, fighting, crying, living, writing when you love me
Their love brings out intense emotions, occasions of both happiness and sadness that inspire them to write music

J'écris des textes en relief juste avec des rimes plates
The singer has an ability to write lyrics that are deep and engaging despite their simple rhyming patterns

J'ai pas changé mes rêves contre un chèque de 1000 plaques
The singer hasn't traded their dreams for money, fame, or success

Quand je suis en concert et que le public back C'est grâce a Philo mon frère big up a mon big black
The singer is grateful to their friend Philo who's helped get the audience involved while performing on stage

Je suis parti de mon bled forcé sous les bruits de balles
The singer had to leave their hometown under gunfire

Dans la rue les murs ont des oreilles et les briques parlent
They are cautious about who hears their conversations since the walls have ears

Rap de référence tu sais je ne biz pas, espérant que ce putain de show biz ne me brise pas
As a popular rapper, they strive to maintain their authenticity despite the industry's commercialism,

D'une manière ou d'une autre rêvais de toucher le ciel
They always dreamed of reaching the pinnacle of success, no matter how impossible it seemed

Je pouvais pas être astronaute alors j'ai fait de la scène
Since becoming an astronaut was not possible, they've taken to the stage to fulfill their dreams

J'ai un pied sur terre, l'autre dans le vide
The singer feels torn between two worlds

Un pied dans le superficiel, l'autre dans le din
They see themselves as balancing between the superficial and the substantial aspects of their life

J'ai un cœur chez les miens, un cœur chez les fous
Their love is divided between their family, and those who have gone crazy

Un cœur sur la main, un cœur au milieu de la foule
They have a heart that is open and welcoming to others

En guise de refrain pour le public qui m'entoure, Ya cette voix qui revient pour vous dire tout mon amour
Their love for the audience is evident and is the basis of the chorus they sing

J'allume une bougie pour éclairer nos remords
The singer lights a candle to survey past regrets and find meaning in the present

Je me bouge vite pour ne pas rester dehors
They act fast and take initiative so that they don't miss out on anything

Le temps s'écoule vite donc on a besoin de l'or
As time is precious, they need to make the most out of all opportunities

J'ai le flow de LL Cool J quand j'ai besoin de loves
When they wish to express love, their poetic rhythm resembles LL Cool J's music

J'ai une main sur mes proches l'autre sur une femme
Their attention is balanced between their family and their sweetheart

J'ai une main sur le microphone l'autre sur une arme
They don't limit themselves to creativity, but also see the importance of protecting themselves

Le succès est de taille mais faut garder nos repères
While their success is significant, they remind themselves to maintain their moral compass

Plus belle sera la médaille plus lourd sera le revers
The more significant the achievement, the greater the responsibility and difficulty in handling it well

J'écris ces quelques lignes car souvent je m'y perd
They write music to express their experiences and also to process their feelings

La défaite est orpheline la victoire a mille pères
They explain how challenging times are lonely, while there are many to share in successes

J'ai un œil sur nos vie un œil sur le monde
While caring about their life, they also see the big picture of what's happening in the world

un œil sur mon fils un œil sur la montre
They are vigilant to their child's interests and conscious of how time passes

Ma vie sans la foule triste anesthésie
Life without their fans would be a sad and numbing experience for the singer

Quand je soufre pour vous je souffre avec plaisir
They enjoy the pain that comes with connecting with their audience while performing.

No one else but you
The singer expresses their exclusivity towards their loved one whom they cannot replace

I'm nothing without you
They feel like they are nothing without the person they love. They gave them purpose

I don't want it to end
The singer is expressing their wishes for their relationship to last long

My love is in your hands
They entrust their love and relationship to their loved one
