[Lyric] IAM - Quand Tu Allais On Revenait English Translation (Genius English Translations)

[Iam - Quand Tu Allais, On Revenait/ English Translation]

[Chorus]
Do you think you're innovating the kata techniques?
The school of Mars is ahead of the time
Make good use of the gestures you were copying
On our thoughts; when you showed up we were coming back

[Verse 1- Shurik'n]
I sit at the knight of the bass table
Noble brotherhood of the deep rhyme
Where every warrior has his own specificity
Every sentences is dissected, thoroughly studied
Our history goes way back, back a long way
But I append here an addendum to what historians said
It's true that Shaolin was invaded by the Mandchous
Assisted by traitors, they went in and burned everything
But they also said and the error looms here
That five monks have escaped
Wrong! We were six
And I unveal at present the ancestrale technique
Ten years of practice have turned me into a verbal virtuoso
Renounce to fight the Gambit, it's a failure
Hong-Kong Fu-Fu from Mars is gonna break your genelec, man
The fight would be too unbalanced
'Cause Mars I represent, the city and my neighborhood
[Chorus]
Do you think you're innovating the kata techniques?
The school of Mars is ahead of the time
Make good use of the gestures you were copying
On our thoughts; when you showed up we were coming back yeah
Do you think you're innovating the kata techniques?
The school of Mars is ahead of the time
Make good use of the gestures you were copying
On our thoughts; when you showed up we were coming back

[Verse 2- Akhenaton]
Their voices are raised, I hear them, they want to bring me down
I stand guard to loose the ukulele
Chtbaou, lightning legs, kata in the air
I'm here to avenge the honor of my father's sister's nephew
That is to say me, a henan temple's disciple
Mental hold-up, they thought I was a jackass
But I was hidden in the shadows, crawling like a puma
Who spotted his prey, who kill only to chew
Attacking on the first gong, punches too blunt in flip-flop
Beward of Chill Chang Chong's foot
Ciao, my technique is Apocalypse Now
Vocal bombardement , verbal viet vodao
I was practicing when you were just a child
Okay, you have seen things, I've seen them 2000 years before
Let me explain, I had a hundred texts in my hat
You were swinging your parts on Chapi-Chapo's airs
I would be amply if at least you'd shut up
But let me tell you when you showed up we were coming back
[Chorus]
Do you think you're innovating the kata techniques?
The school of Mars is ahead of the time
Make good use of the gestures you were copying
On our thoughts; when you showed up we were coming back
Do you think you're innovating the kata techniques?
The school of Mars is ahead of the time
Make good use of the gestures you were copying
On our thoughts; when you showed up we were coming back

[Verse 3- Akhenaton]
Like the war in The Iliad, we're deploying myriads
Infesting your speakers in the name of the Triad
Iota alpha mu, your bars have a mean lingering sense of déjà vu
Do you want to cross swords with mad monks?
To run away, your only way out
When my ideas align
For a mystical vision, worthy of Shaolin
The Big Boss, founds "Opération Dragon" on your head
And I love this game because it is the game of your death
Bruce L.A.I. do you have the charisma to be a monk?
Do not complain, do not whine, in our plate
We all had oat, but you were in the cottage in the plains
While I was on a mountain practicing my kuens

[Verse 4- Shurik'n]
Right in the Tao "wassaaa" into the pao
Do not try to resist or you'll end up K.O
I advocate the virtues of the low profiles, still waters running deep
Does more damage than a dog who bark but doesn't bite
The 426 reaches plenitude
But I have the Fist of Fury, to lose is not an habit of mine
I train everyday without keeping it down
Because perfection can only be reached through repetition
Holder of a thousand-year-old technique
I defend the honor of the school of the silver mic
Drunken style expert, I get wasted with music
Before jumping from hill to hill
And if you're tempted to steal my mic
Don't forget Jachen Chan is more solid than your teeth
You can go back to training, you're far from ready
When you showed up we were coming back
[Chorus]
Do you think you're innovating the kata techniques?
The school of Mars is ahead of the time
Make good use of the gestures you were copying
On our thoughts; when you showed up we were coming back
Do you think you're innovating the kata techniques?
The school of Mars is ahead of the time
Make good use of the gestures you were copying
On our thoughts; when you showed up we were coming back
We were coming back, son, yeah
When you showed up, son
We were coming back, son, huh huh yeah
When you showed up, when you showed up, when you showed up, when you showed up
We were coming back, son
