INCIPIT

You slapped me with your eyes

That seemed so joyful

You broke me with your mouth

Without hitting the mark too much

I've met too many people

Who wanted to screw me

Since everything revolves around money

I thought I might as well make them pay




It's not a case-by-case

The patriarchy told me

As long as you get in the ring

You know you're going to fight, veiled or in a thong

It's not because you're a Feminist that you won't get raped

But feminism can always save you




"Dirty black" a redneck will tell you

"I don't see color"

A hipster will tell you

In the end, it's the same value

It's true, I'm pissed

I don't settle for the minimum

I should be happy to be in France

It's true I'm very lucky




Yesterday they deported us from Africa

And today we flee a chaotic land

Things don't change, you see

They evolve somehow.

To our dear pale man

We are only microbes

But I often see "Black love"

When validated by him

To be honest, it bores me

It's paradoxical we always need his approval.




We Always Have More Enemies Than We Think

We always have fewer friends than the ones we see




The verb 'to empathize' does not exist

But 'to sympathize' does, it's more than a state

It's also an action

Which is not only due to an emotion

I will always be violent, like Magneto

I've been on edge for a long time

I wish we could overthrow this society

So it could be picked up

If this world were good

There wouldn't be so much evil.




I am not Manichean

I am just an African

More materialistic than venal

More a slut than a whore




I've spent my time listening to others.

So much that I don't even know if I exist

You have to scare even your own

To be a little at peace, and that makes me sad

If one day, I become famous

It will probably be by accident




I don't know if I was a zebra child

But I am an insolent adult.

They will never forgive us for their wrongs.

Their decline will be our rise




Field negro

House negro

It's always the same side.

I don't like being right

I often wish I were wrong

So I could keep hoping
