"Jamais Non Jamais"

[ocelot]

Jamais Non Jamais

Sous le vent et le ciel de traîne
Se mélangent colère et violence,
Aussi loin que je me souvienne,
Je vois des joies et des souffrances,
L'envie d'échapper tous mes silences,
De ne pas rester sans une autre espérance.

Jamais non jamais je ne me laisse faire,
Je livre mes combats,
Jamais je ne reste terre,
Au quotidien quand je me bats,
Moi, j'ai mes peines et j'ai ma foi.

C'est en vain que les maux reviennent
Je suis le chemin d'o renaît la chance,
Maintenant entre terre et mienne,
Entre les distances c'est l que j'avance,
L'envie de donner sans une récompense,
L'envie de crier pour une autre sentence.

Jamais non jamais je ne me laisse faire,
Je livre mes combats,
Jamais je ne reste terre,
Au quotidien quand je me bats,
Moi, j'ai mes peines et j'ai ma foi.

Jamais même en prières,
Je n'attends rien et je suis l,
J'oublie mes peines mais pas ma foi.

Never, Ever

Under the wind and the lead sky mix
Themselves anger and violence
Also as far as I remember
I see joys and sufferings
The craving to escape all my silences
Of not staying without another hope

Never ever I do not leave to do
I deliver my fight
Never I do not stay earth
To the newspaper when I fight
Me, I have my sorrows and I have my faith

This is in vain that the evil returns
I am the way of where reemerges chance
Now between earth and mine
Between the distances this is there that I advance
The craving to give without return
The craving to scream for another sentence

Never ever I do not leave to do
I deliver my fight
Never I do not stay earth
To the newspaper when I fight
Me, I have my sorrows and I have my faith

Never even in prayers
I no longer wait and I am there
I forget my sorrow but not my faith

I'm really amazed at the strength of these lyrics. Tina has a real passion about her that reminds me of Bruce Springsteen. I just watched "Wings For Wheels: The Making Of Born To Run" again, and he talked about how in his youth the uncertainty of knowing exactly where he was going, but he just had to go out there and discover what it was that was pulling him towards it! He wanted to break out and break free and he wasn't sure of his abilities but he knew he had abilities; and he had to carry those abilities out to their conclusion. Then Tina sings something like:

" Under the wind and the lead sky mix
Themselves anger and violence
Also as far as I remember
I see joys and sufferings
The craving to escape all my silences
Of not staying without another hope"

That's Born To Run through and through!
