[Verse 1]
People ask me who I am
Why am I dragging my bad seed around here
And, by hearing it, I think I understand
It seems like it's a bargain, places are sold dearly at the gates of paradise
[Chorus 1]
I know: to find a place for myself, it won't be easy
br/>I'm a stranger in the city
Sometimes it hurts when I frown
I'm a stranger in the city
I accept my fate , but I won't be docile
Even if I walk on a tightrope
If I have to be strong, I'll be invincible
Yeah, ok
[Verse 2]
Frankly, it's funny how people look at me
Everyone parades in their role, everyone is on their guard
On the sidewalks of the main avenues
Strange to be a stranger for a street kid
But too late, too late, you sold me
Dreams of glory, great hopes, you convinced me
Too bad, even if I'm starting from scratch
Like the others, I want my share
[Chorus 2]
To make a place for myself, it's not won't be easy
I'm a stranger in the city
Sometimes it gets rough when I frown
I'm a stranger in the city
J 'accept my fate, but I will not be docile
Here, I walk on a wire
If I have to be strong, I will be invincible

[Verse 3]
Why talk nonsense? I can see it clearly when I walk around
There's something wrong, there's something wrong
A bit like if I was sick, the people avoid me in their walks
I believe that the wall of fear of others has not grown only in Gaza
I don't have to change my style, I'm told that I don't have the right profile
That I have to run, run, that I don't have a deal, deal, that there's no point in me campaigning
That I have to understand, that I assimilate that this is the city, city, it's not an island
I'll have to work like ten thousand and that my dreams quickly find their limit
[Chorus 1]
To find a place for myself, it won't be easy
I'm a stranger in the city
There are sometimes breaks when I frown
I'm a stranger in the city
I accept my fate, but I won't be docile
Even if I walk on a tightrope
If I have to be strong, I will be invincible
