Kpoint x DopeBoy – Compte à rebours (English lyrics)

Bridge :
I’m blocked, like in an elevator
I’m waiting to reach on success’s floor, and I’m counting the seconds
When I’ll make my way to the top, the haters will say that I was wrong for being right
I’m keeping my head screwed on right, but I rather be first than second, keep your consolation prizes to yourselves
Deep down in my banlieu sud, I’m not losing my mind, and I think on my cash and on my motivation

1st verse :
Nigga, me I’m posted up in the ghetto
Tell me who can dismantle the drug ring ?
They all want their piece of the pie
And they want to smoke my joint
A little kid is serving the fiends downstairs of the block
They pull the Glock out if you come around looking for problems
Another brother under committal order
I (??) your soldier on the side
Wallay billay I’m gonna shock them
It’s my rhymes that they’ll be coming over to buy
I’m all alone in the spaceship
The weapon in hand I’m coming to warm them up
We’re handling our business, we’re straight
The (??) are trying to block us
Illicit substances are running through my blood vessels
We’re thinking on money, we’re thinking on pesos
For the business, we’ve got next
I wake up at dawn and I get it done
They’ve got nothing but (??) on their lips
Marianne, I’m getting the hell away from you, over at Melanie’s
It’s of my future that I’m in charge
But the Sheitan is trying to make friends with me
Madame Irma taught me
That the future and life has a price !

Bridge :
I’m blocked, like in an elevator
I’m waiting to reach on success’s floor, and I’m counting the seconds
When I’ll make my way to the top, the haters will say that I was wrong for being right
I’m keeping my head screwed on right, but I rather be first than second, keep your consolation prizes to yourselves
Deep down in my banlieu sud, I’m not losing my mind, and I think on my cash and on my motivation

Chorus :
Never, never, never
Will I give up, never (4x)

Bridge :
I’m blocked, like in an elevator
I’m waiting to reach on success’s floor, and I’m counting the seconds
When I’ll make my way to the top, the haters will say that I was wrong for being right
I’m keeping my head screwed on right, but I rather be first than second, keep your consolation prizes to yourselves
Deep down in my banlieu sud, I’m not losing my mind, and I think on my cash and on my motivation

2nd verse :
Nigga, yeah, I’m posted up at my spot
And I’m seeing that time waits for no one
We want the keys to your father’s safe
And the Banker’s pussy
The rap game’s DNA on the back seat
Kpoint G, I don’t listen according to the inquiries
Scars on the back of my ancestors
Revenge is a dish, I’ll invite Blanchette at the banquet
You, who don’t have any imagination, who don’t have any wings
If you don’t have any knowledge you don’t have any weapon
I see them screaming for help, I’ll spray them up with no remorse
It’s of my future that I’m in charge
But the Sheitan is trying to make friends with me
The rap game is sentenced to death
I fucked it without telling it Mi Amor

Bridge :
I’m blocked, like in an elevator
I’m waiting to reach on success’s floor, and I’m counting the seconds
When I’ll make my way to the top, the haters will say that I was wrong for being right
I’m keeping my head screwed on right, but I rather be first than second, keep your consolation prizes to yourselves
Deep down in my banlieu sud, I’m not losing my mind, and I think on my cash and on my motivation

Chorus :
Never, never, never
Will I give up, never (4x)

Bridge :
I’m blocked, like in an elevator
I’m waiting to reach on success’s floor, and I’m counting the seconds
When I’ll make my way to the top, the haters will say that I was wrong for being right
I’m keeping my head screwed on right, but I rather be first than second, keep your consolation prizes to yourselves
Deep down in my banlieu sud, I’m not losing my mind, and I think on my cash and on my motivation
