Confessions
Hum, eh
Oh oh ah
You’ll surely hear me say that I’m not the most honest of men
That if I love you, I’ll be too possessive, that more often than not, my ego dictates my actions
It might be true, I’ve never felt like someone worthy of being called a “hero”
I'm a perfect mix of nice guy and probably the last of the jerks
When I was abandoned, I lost people on the way right from the start, and I just kept thinking about it
Did I do something wrong or I had been on my own from the very beginning?
I was in sorrow, when I almost lost my queen by thinking that my home was a stage
I was filled with hate, so close to slashing my veins when I was betrayed on my blind side
Let them talk, let them talk, let them talk, I don’t know what to do
I can’t stand it, I can’t stand the words of the whole world
I was all over the place, I had to turn over a new leaf, in my heart, there was carnage
It’s in the corner that you get to see real faces: there are fewer people when there’s a storm
Before getting rich, I was poor, I know the pain of the poor, I don’t want that life anymore
There was no water in the bucket, I worked from midday to dawn to turn my life around
Resentment is my flaw, if you left me to rot, I’m not going to forget you
The worst thing is that when the weather's nice, everyone wants to a ride in the boat, go to hell
My life is far from exemplary, besides, I don’t want to be regarded as a role model
With a smile, I could lie to you, no one knows what I feel
I received a decent upbringing but I've sometimes I don't act as such
Sometimes, I feel heartache but it’s too complicated to explain
I have to get my act together, already much time wasted in my life
I think I’m destroying myself, I pay more attention to my enemies than to my family
I’ve never taken respite, too many heads to cater for
But what soothes me is the smile on my daughter’s face
I've always heard that a man has to cry in secret
I think that’s the only advice I applied without fail
My wife doesn’t understand my obsession with taking care of everything, she says, “Dju, we’re married, you know”
But if I don't open up, it’s because I don’t want to get them worried
And if I shared my feelings every time, the people around me would be devastated
I’ve built my world around certain people whom, a handful of them, for whom I pray for good health, yeah
Never finished, never finished and end even when I’ve succeeded, I want more
I still do silly stuff to show that I’ve got dough
Fireworks at a nightclub when my black card comes out
As for the golden rule, it only applies when there’s discord
If you want to stay neutral and not take sides, for me, you’re dead
You've got all my support even if you're wrong
Your enemy is my enemy when problems come up
And I hope that when I’m buried tomorrow, you’ll take care of my loved ones
These last words will be my will
And I hope that before I’m buried tomorrow, I’ll have a huge heart of gold, just to depart a bit more at peace
I grew up without my father
I don’t want my daughter to end up like me
Oh yeah
Oh oh ah
