In the Name of a Name

All that in the name of a Name
Look at the mess they made
It’s all out, about time
Yes cz the beat outplayed
All that in the name of a Name
Look at the mess they made
It’s all out, about time
Yes cz the beat outplayed

In the name of a Name, he looks from his gate
Locked in, sighing, isolated
Dreaming’ bout how much life could grain
At the end of his flowery private lane
But his parents stop him, saying « Young boy,
You’re way too great, our house’s the place »
So he sat down, adjusted and waited
When he turned 18, he got all excited
But his immune system was porcelain
As if he had never touched the smallest thing
He’s like a card castle when a breeze comes in
Nobody tells him the virus’s spreading
His body wild-firing and day-dreaming
An intrepid soul naively leaping
Wide-eyed, sun burns his bear white skin
And almost gets him in a Congolese coffin

All that in the name of a Name
Look at the mess they made
It’s all out, about time
Yes cz the beat outplayed
All that in the name of a Name
Look at the mess they made
It’s all out, about time
Yes cz the beat outplayed

In the name of a Name, the mother’s in flame
I’m not even ten when her rage floods in
She slaps, she spits, kicks my abdomen
“What are people gonna say?!”, her tears pulling strings
Then I go on stage, she claps front row
Turns left and right like its her own show
She digs the trench around our castle
And I’m her sociotropy, so there is no no’s
Switching money with tranquilizers
Telling town, cares for her daughter
Batts her lashes, judge in order
I’ve grab my bag and changed my number
Even to this day, some might call me cray
Cz i’m dropping bombs, the shivers stay
Buckle-up, you little fuck, dusty old tray
Buckle-up, it's a clean-up day

All that in the name of a Name
Look at the mess she made
It’s all out, about time
Yes cz the beat outplayed
All that in the name of a Name
Look at the mess she made
It’s all out, about time
Yes cz the beat outplayed

I’m bringing justice to my own
I’m giving statements in stations
I’m feeling stronger when alone
No soul daring saying I’m wrong
I’m bringing justice to my own
I’m giving statements in stations
I’m feeling stronger when alone
No soul

Because he had that Name, he skipped the foreplay
So to close that door, I opened that case
Took me thirteen years, I don’t ragret the wait
Let’s see now if the man can still walk straight
I remember, he said three years later
« You didn’t deserve it, not like some others »
So now I’m waiting and crossing fingers
Is karma gonna find all my sisters

All that in the name of a Name
Look at the mess he made
It’s all out, about time
Yes cz the beat outplayed
All that in the name of a Name
Look at the mess he made
It’s all out, about time
Yes cz the beat outplayed

All that in the name of a name
Look at the mess you made
It’s all out, about time
Yes cz the beat outplayed
All that in the name of a name
Look at the mess you made
It’s all out, about time
Yes cz the beat outplayed

I’m bringing justice to my own
I’m giving statements in stations
I’m feeling stronger when alone
No soul daring saying I’m wrong
I’m bringing justice to my own
I’m giving statements in stations
I’m feeling stronger when alone
No soul daring saying I’m wrong
