Djadja & Dinaz – Marchand de sable (English lyrics)

Intro :
You know us, we would like to fly away from the projects, searching for money, we’re not done hustling ! (x2)

1rst verse :
I’ll tell it to you straight up bro, I don’t have anything to lose
My head is fucked up
I’ve been through misery, that’s what my father told me
Papa, Yema, quick, I need to get the hell away from here
Your son is starving, you don’t believe me
He would do anything for you, you don’t know it
There’re no jobs for him, he’s taking slaps
He slangs in front of the anti crime brigade
I need to get away on the islands
In order for happiness to give me a sign…
I can see her sending out signals to me
Why are you hesitating ? Come in the pool honey
And we end up in the pool, bring the mathusalem
Let’s piss off the projects, bring the mathusalem
And those who talk a lot are liars yeah
They start snitching right away in police custody
There’s only in front of the judge that they’re honest
And in front of their girlfriends they try to act tough

Chorus :
Kilos of that dope shit, my clients know it
At night I even slang the sand man
I never wished to end up like this
My hands ended up doing dirt
We ended up doing dirt, yeah my hands ended up doing dirt ! (X2)
Kilos of that dope shit, my clients know it
At night I even slang the sand man
I never wished to end up like this
My hands ended up doing dirt ! (X2)

2nd verse :
I wanted to bring in a load of money, but that’s difficult
Homie there’s those who talk and those who follow, then there’s those who call the shots
All the girls think that I’ve made it, so I only pick up dimes
Don’t take too long honey, join us in the pool
In the projects, they sell and smoke cannabis
The hash is afghan, the swag is from Sicily
C’est pas pour rien qu’on est des barres (??)
You, on the beat, you’re controversial
I don’t want to stay at the bottom of the building
It’s the street that hires me
You think I’m lying when I talk to you
Go ahead and tell me so we can split up
Down in my projects
I’ve got my homies, my head is packed, but you already know that
There’s only one motto : remain loyal
If there’s a search warrant, don’t worry, I’ll wait for them to free you

Outro :
You know us, we would like to fly away from the projects, searching for money, we’re not done hustling ! (x2)

Chorus
