Jamais à genoux [English translation]

Time really flies by

I can see life pass by

We fall and get back up

My friend, don't regret anything

I was among wolves

And i thought of her

Victories, defeates

If only you knew

I've been everywhere

Shoes covered in mud

They had no mercy

I could have died

In the middle of the fire

And they hurt me

Those who spoke badly of me

But made me

Stronger than ever

Chorus:

They wanted me to give up

But they're crazy

My mother raised a man

The world belongs to us

They wanted me to give up

I'm standing

My mother raised a man

Never on my knees

I can see them, can see them, can see them

All those distant looks

They point their fingers at me

I need, I need, I need

Nothing but the force of my own

They hurt me

Those who spoke badly of me

But made me

Stronger than ever

Chorus

I'm far from being a hero

I have many problems, many faults

I'm only a man, a man

I can live on love and water

But refuse bread and castles

A man, I'm only a man

Chorus

I'm only a man

Only a man

I'm only a man

Only a man

Never on my knees
