[English]

This is Vegedream from Gagnoa -

The European Fifty Cent, bro, -

If I don't see it, I don't believe it, bro -

She makes my mind freeze

I know she loves me but she doesn't say it

We almost broke up but I didn't want to

Because I think about the happy moments

And when she opens her mouth, I'm paralyzed

I find it hard to grasp everything

She says she wants to eat at the Élysée

I can't stand up straight like I'm drunk

They tell you I'm bad

They tell you I go out

And that I always have something in my pockets

Don't listen to people

You know what I'm worth

That for you I would run

Like a greyhound

It's only you

You shine without light

Of all the ones I saw

I looked at you

If you tell something, it goes wrong

People talk a lot

And that's why our thing

I won't tell

It's just, baby, I don't understand (oah)

I truly don't understand you (aah)

If I leave, I'm running away (oah)

If I stay, I'm suffering (aah)

Sometimes I don't know

When she will return

I want to see her now-now-now

I don't know why

She doesn't tell me anything

And it hurts me

She makes my mind freeze

I know she loves me but she doesn't say it

We almost broke up but I didn't want to

Because I think about the happy moments -

And when she opens her mouth, I'm paralyzed

I find it hard to grasp everything

She says she wants to eat at the Élysée

I can't stand up straight like I'm drunk

I have to control her like an inspector

She's always in my area

I'm the one who will change everything

I've seen her so much that I know her by heart

And when she walks, she puts me in danger

My baby, oh,

What I feel is madness

I would do anything for you

You're my lady, oh

You're the most beautiful melody

I can't live without you

My baby, oh

What I feel is madness

I would do anything for you

She makes my mind freeze

I know she loves me but she doesn't say it

We almost broke up but I didn't want to

Because I think about the happy moments

And when she opens her mouth, I'm paralyzed

I find it hard to grasp everything

She says she wants to eat at the Élysée

I can't stand up straight like I'm drunk

[Spanish]

Ça c’est Vegedream de Gagnoa

El Fifty Cent Europeo negro,

Si no lo veo no lo creo negro

Ella hace que mi mente se paralice

Yo se que me quiere pero no dice

Casi terminamo’ pero no quise

Porque pienso en los momento que son felice’

Et quand elle ouvre la bouche, je suis paralysé

J'ai du mal à comprendre à tout réaliser

Elle dit qu'elle veut manger à l'Élysée

Je tiens plus debout comme si j'étais alcoolisé

Te dicen que soy malo

Te dicen que yo salgo

Y que siempre en los bolsillo tengo algo

No te lleves de gente

Tu sabes lo que valgo

Que por ti yo correria

Como un galgo

Eres solo tu

Brillas sin la luz

De todas las que yo vi

A ti te mire

Si cuentas algo sale mal

Gente habla mu

Y por eso yo lo nuestro

No lo diré

Es que baby no comprendo (oah)

De verdad que no te entiendo (aah)

Si me voy estoy huyendo (oah)

Si me quedo estoy sufriendo (aah)

A veces no se

Cuando volvera

La quiero ver ya-ya-ya

Yo no se por qué

No me dice na'

Y me duele wa-wa-wa

Ella hace que mi mente se paralice

Yo se que me quiere pero no dice

Casi terminamo’ pero no quise

Porque pienso en los momento que son felice’

Et quand elle ouvre la bouche, je suis paralysé

J'ai du mal à comprendre à tout réaliser

Elle dit qu'elle veut manger à l'Élysée

Je tiens plus debout comme si j'étais alcoolisé

Faut que je la contrôle comme un inspecteur

Elle se balade dans mon secteur

Je suis celui qui va tout changer

Je l'ai tellement vu que je la connais par cœur

Et quand elle marche, elle me met en danger

Ma Baby oh,

Ce que je ressens c'est de la folie

Je ferais tout pour toi

T’est ma lady oh

T'es la plus belle des mélodie

Je pe pas vivre sans toi

Ma baby oh

Ce que je ressens c'est de la folie

Je ferais tout pour toi

Ella hace que mi mente se paralice

Yo se que me quiere pero no dice

Casi terminamo’ pero no quise

Porque pienso en los momento que son felice’

Et quand elle ouvre la bouche, je suis paralysé

J'ai du mal à comprendre à tout réaliser

Elle dit qu'elle veut manger à l'Élysée

Je tiens plus debout comme si j'étais alcoolisé

Key Grammar Structures

• Ella hace que mi mente se paralice

  ➔ Subjunctive Mood after 'hacer que'

  ➔ The phrase "hace que" (makes that) requires the subjunctive mood in the following clause because it expresses a command, desire, or influence on an action. Here, "se paralice" is the subjunctive form of "paralizarse."

• Je tiens plus debout comme si j'étais alcoolisé

  ➔ 'Comme si' + Imperfect Tense

  ➔ "Comme si" (as if) is followed by the imperfect tense ("j'étais") to express a hypothetical situation or a comparison that is contrary to fact or highly improbable in the present.

• Que por ti yo correria Como un galgo

  ➔ Conditional Tense (Hypothetical Action)

  ➔ The conditional tense "correria" (I would run) is used here to express a hypothetical action that would occur under a certain condition (for you). It implies willingness or a potential future action dependent on a premise.

• J'ai du mal à comprendre à tout réaliser

  ➔ 'Avoir du mal à' + Infinitive

  ➔ The idiom "avoir du mal à" means "to have difficulty doing something." It is always followed by the preposition "à" and then an infinitive verb ("comprendre", "réaliser").

• Si me voy estoy huyendo

  ➔ 'Si' Clause Type 1 (Real Condition)

  ➔ This is a Type 1 conditional sentence, indicating a real or very probable condition and its consequence. The "si" clause ("Si me voy") uses the present indicative, and the main clause ("estoy huyendo") uses the present progressive to show an action happening as a result.

• Faut que je la contrôle comme un inspecteur

  ➔ 'Il faut que' + Subjunctive Mood

  ➔ The impersonal expression "il faut que" (it is necessary that) requires the subjunctive mood in the following clause ("je la contrôle") when referring to a specific subject, to express an obligation or necessity. "Faut" is a common informal contraction of "il faut".

• Ce que je ressens c'est de la folie

  ➔ Compound Relative Pronoun 'Ce que'

  ➔ "Ce que" functions as a compound relative pronoun, meaning "what" or "that which." It refers to an unspecified thing and acts as the direct object of the verb in the relative clause ("je ressens").

• je suis paralysé

  ➔ Passive Voice

  ➔ The passive voice is formed with the auxiliary verb "être" ("suis") and the past participle ("paralysé") of the main verb. It is used when the subject of the sentence receives the action rather than performs it.

• A ti te mire

  ➔ Redundant Object Pronoun with Dislocated Object

  ➔ In Spanish, a direct or indirect object preceded by "a" (especially when it's a personal 'a' or for emphasis) is often "redundantly" doubled with its corresponding object pronoun ("te"). "A ti" clarifies or emphasizes who "te" refers to.

• Je l'ai tellement vu que je la connais par cœur

  ➔ 'Tellement... que' (Intensifier + Result Clause)

  ➔ The structure "tellement... que" (so much/many... that) is used to express a cause-and-effect relationship. "Tellement" intensifies the verb ("vu"), and "que" introduces the consequence or result ("je la connais par cœur").
