Laylow - LOST FOREST English Translation
[Intro]
Fuck the police comin' straight from the underground
A young nigga got it bad 'cause I'm brown (Yeah)
Fuck the police comin' straight from the underground
A young nigga got it bad 'cause I'm brown

[Chorus]
Ten little niggas in the valley, the world wants to devour them
Ten little arabs in the valley, the world wants to devour them
Ok, the world wants to devour them
Ok, ok, ok, ok

[Verse 1]
Into da' Classe A, driving, I'm comfortable, begining of the evening as intented
I got khaliss, more than intended, there's cash plan, more than needed
The homies telling me "Accelerate", at the same time rolling dorés
I tell 'em "Damn, y'all are aggravating", they said "Don't worry, we got a party" (Don't worry bruh)
Ok, I hesitate two seconds, right after I tell myself "In fact, I have nothing to lose, if it's lame, we can clear off"
At this moment, it was all clear, I wasn't seeing what was coming until we started hearing
Police, sons of b', it's when you think you're free that they bring you back to reality which is dismal
We already know their vices, we know the drill
Let me handle the conversation before it goes downhill
Don't do something stupid! Cut off contact, I wanna see your hands! Your hands!
Officer, these days I've made quite some money
You're mistaking me for someone else, I'm a bit noxious but endearing
"Be indulgent, please" that's what I said,just before they responded: "Shut the fuck up, get down on the ground"
[Interlude : Dialogue multiple]
- Friend 1: Wow wow, go easy
- Friend 2: Wow, wow, wow
- Policeman: Turn off the radios, Philippe
- Philippe : Yes I do that straightaway
- Friend 2: What's fuckin' going on?
- Policeman: You ain't doing your smartass now, huh?
- Philippe : Yeah, they ain't acting smart anymore
- Policeman: Bring the ski masks, let's end this!
- Friend 2: What ski masks?
- Friend 1: Oh! What are you gonna do to us?
- Philippe : You'll soon understand
- Policeman: Hehehehehe

[Chorus]
Ten little niggas in the valley, the world wants to devour them
Ten little arabs in the valley, the world wants to devour them
Ok, the world could devour them

[Verse 2]
There you go, bring them there and close the door
When I woke up, I only saw blue, I didn't even knew where we were
But there was cops, the same than earlier, one had a gun
He looked zehef, he looked serious, looked like he want to rip at someone, like straightaway
And me I was nervous but I said "Relax, chill let me explain
I think there's a mistake, we just want hit a party, maybe there's a misunderstanding"
Then, he cracked up (Hahahahah), he got closer to me and said:
"Now you shut the fuck up, I'm the one who explain the rules of the game"
[Interlude 2: Dialogue]
- Policeman: Alright guys, do you see this weapon?
- Philippe : Of course they see it
- Policeman: Well it's not my service weapon
- Philippe : No, no, no
- Policeman: It's another weapon. Let's say one for hobby
- Philippe : Let's say it's untraceable and let's say that we could do anything with it
- Policeman: Yeah, what's gonna happen is very simple. I'm gonna throw it between the three of you, and I let you kill one another, until there's only one left
- Philippe : Only one
- Policeman: And the big winner can get out alive
Get it?
- Philippe : Ok, let's begin!

[Verse 3]
He threw the iron in the middle and it's *** who got it (dude, the fuck are ya' doin' bruh, drop that! Hey don't touch me!)
He clearly wasn't zen, he clearly was on edge this whole time
Lil accusatory look, when *** tells him
"Poto calma te, you don't see that they wanna get to your head, we're srabs since day one, we're brothers, bound to the end"(Yeah, yeah, yeah sure, yeah!)
He told him: "Shut up, it's not you, now, who handle the leng, who pull the strings
You clearly ain't sincere, you just wanna save your ass, yeah what would you do if you were me?
So shut up!
You never respected or looked after me anyway
You always thought of yourself as superior with your air like "I'm above all that"
We ain't the same, by nature, in the blood, not the same culture, not the same camp
I never liked all your... kḥal stuff!" (What? What did you just fuckin' said?)
Suddenly, *** blew a fuse, he said "How dare you talk like that motherfucker?
That's it, great, y'a too big for your boots because of the iron?"
*** said "So what? You're there, always wasted on booze, now you're lecturin' me?
In any case, watcha gonna do? I got the shit!"
"Okay, you got the shit but watcha goona do? You have no balls"
He upseted him, he told him "don't push me bruh!''
"Bruh, I'm pushin' you what are ya gonna do?"
End result, he shot him
- Fuck!
- That's one
- I'm done! We're done!
- No no no, you're absolutely not done! Finish the job!
Youy need to visualize the scene (come on), there was a dead body and cops holding my homie at gunpoint (Come on!)
So in turn he pointed his gun at me (okay okay, I'ma do it, alright!)
He told me: "I'm sorry, khey, I wish I'd never had to do this, we were bros (Pull the goddamn trigger!)
But life is treacherous, I need to save myselft, not my fault, ciao homie" (Come on!)
