[Intro]
Feeling the doors close in front of you and saying to yourself:
My instinct has vanished, it's not coming back, it's crazy
I had my second chance at the same time
The wait was long, very long and stressful
I burned my best years like that, but here I am...
[Verse 1]
When I saw the first train pass
In my life, before my eyes, I realized: he was already far away
I can still hear the locomotive ringing
He has vanished into the horizon, evaporated with all my diplomas
I was already having trouble coping with the apartment
And shopping, I would have really needed another card
Chance or chance, a helping hand, not a shoulder
That my mouse and I can leave this rat hole
Train with us, too many regrets in the apples
Everyone would like to see the lines redone
That destiny has drawn, decided to change
We wait for the second chance like the rain in the Sahel
The days we seem to be nothing more than a disastrous charade
Yet life is not a court
Erasing everything wouldn't be any worse
I have the memories that... come alive in the depths of my eyes
When the night tells me that it will never get better
The hands open and turn towards the heavens
I too I was a child: I cried and I laughed
When bad luck drew a funny series
The air became rarefied, I took a gulp
And struggled in every way not to sink
Irascible, uneven temper, normal
If we sink into the paranoia of the illegal
The days are the same, there's nothing that stands out
The problems are made of bricks, there's nothing that breaks them
And we hum these words: “There’s nothing that erases them”
[Chorus: x2]
The good life owes me a next dance
Go elsewhere to that my air changes
That I smile, that my anger fades
My god (my god) I would love to have my second chance
[Verse 2]
To all my sisters who held these walls
At my side, impassive, vigilant, when the winter was hard
This city belongs to us more than to all these richards
All these bitter people and these old whiners
The streets bear their names, the bricks bear ours
Nothing to beat hipsters and these places on the coast
I was there where it takes to stay alive
Team from France tarmac, shine your eyes in the gray
The weather has made my knees bend
In full of boredom forest I had to dig my place, easy
took up residence in the tree that hides them
While waiting for the second train, the sun beat down
So strong , that in order not to die, I traced on foot
Slipped a cassette into my Jurassic player
Towards other horizons, mine was so hard to live with
Nah, I never blamed God for that
All that shit in front of my eyes, it was mine
Like a grown-up, I passed the Sponge
I can say it now: the prawn is eating away
Rage in the heart, crossing swords with your demons in dreams
No one holds your hand when from so high up your body sinks
Loyalty spits in your face
For two tickets or a few saps, to stay up to date
It's true, I only had a little 'options
And this rope where I walked led straight to the extreme anointing
Even if everyone believed that the play was on
Me on my side , I found myself singing
[Chorus]
[Outro]
Every morning I repeat to myself:
“Life is a miracle, thank you my God for this grace
Second chance, I am alive”
