Berlingo Lyrics (English Translation) – Limsa d’Aulnay, ISHA

Berlingo (English Translation) Lyrics Meaning

[Intro: ISHA]
He’s basically settling into the studio and getting ready to record. Everything is in the right place, and he’s hyping himself up to deliver the whole performance in one smooth take. The vibe is calm but confident, like he’s fully prepared and doesn’t want to break the flow once he starts.

[Verse 1: ISHA]
He talks about how, if something happened to him now, people should remember that he’s not the same person he used to be. His old life was filled with smoke, substances, and messy choices, and he kept unusual mixes of people around him, including someone who had all the right connections. He says that a rough lifestyle can’t really be understood unless you experience it yourself. He mentions how money naturally pulls creativity toward it, like they attract each other. He also points out that in a small city, everyone knows each other’s business, and people rarely ask for help even when they’re hurting. He remembers the embarrassment of being broke while even younger kids were already making money. But things have changed since then. He and his crew live better now, work harder, and take pride in what they create. There’s a sense of growth, progress, and a little relief that the hustle finally paid off.

[Bridge: ISHA]
This part repeats the idea that the recording setup is perfect and everything is in place. It feels like a quick reminder that the energy is right, and Limsa is ready to perform the whole thing smoothly without any breaks, showing confidence and focus.

[Verse 2: Limsa d’Aulnay]
He talks about how fewer people stay faithful to anything these days, and how life feels slippery and risky, especially for young people in tough areas around Paris, even if they try to look put together on the outside. He explains that he cut ties with someone because they weren’t honest or trustworthy, and there was no point arguing about it. He compares his rap style to swinging a machete—sharp, direct, and fearless—and says he carries this strength with him everywhere. He mentions traveling far to meet girls and jokes that he’d probably write something as serious as his will in a fancy poetic style. Then he shifts to memories of hanging out with friends, getting high, and stressing out his mom with their wild behavior. He talks about messing around in the back of a Berlingo car and being willing to travel anywhere for music, even last-minute. He admits he used to be very shy and not mature, and he often felt weaker or more hesitant than others his age. Because of that, he sometimes felt younger or less experienced than the girls around him, showing how insecure he used to be before growing into himself.
