Lyrics of Qui m’a demandé by Damso
[Couplet 1]
Tu sais, moi, j’ai du mal à parler, j’ai tellement serré les dents
J’ai vécu des choses atroces, j’connais la douleur des gens
J’cherche la paix un peu partout, guidé par le vent
Pour savoir comment aimer, j’ai d’mandé aux religions
Elles m’ont dit : “Tu connais rien à la souffrance, celle que le temps ne guérit pas”
Quand l’âme est blessée sur l’chemin, ça laisse des traces depuis l’enfance
Et la mémoire n’a que le choix d’y repenser, repenser, repenser
Moi j’comprends pas pourquoi j’suis né, j’suis dans l’flou
Pourquoi mon daron a-t-il craché dans l’trou ?
Il fallait savoir déjà est-c’que vous l’aimez vous cette vie ?
[Refrain]
Alors mais qui m’a demandé ma permission d’v’nir au monde ?
Si j’pouvais m’prononcer, j’y passerai que quelques secondes
Mais qui m’a demandé ma permission d’v’nir au monde ?
Si j’pouvais m’prononcer, j’y passerai que quelques secondes
[Post-refrain]
La vie de rêve, la vie de Toni, Toni, Toni
Pour finir à Mantes-la-Jolie, Jolie, Jolie, eh
[Couplet 2]
La vie de rêve, la vie de Toni Braxton (Toni), les mauvais choix font qu’j’déconne
Sombre à p’tit feu, le désespoir résonne (Ah, bah oui)
Tant d’innocents, tant d’innocents payent pour qu’l’Occident règne sur les consciences
Plus de confiance, les conséquences de la méfiance
Les cœurs mis en scène, Kin la belle
[Refrain]
Qui m’a demandé ma permission d’v’nir au monde ?
Si j’pouvais m’prononcer, j’y passerai que quelques secondes
Mais qui m’a demandé ma permission d’v’nir au monde ?
Si j’pouvais m’prononcer, j’y passerai que quelques secondes
[Post-refrain]
La vie de rêve, la vie de Toni, Toni, Toni
Pour finir à Mantes-la-Jolie, Jolie, Jolie, eh
La vie de rêve, la vie de—
Meaning of Qui m’a demandé Lyrics
Couplet 1 Meaning:
Here, Damso opens up about how hard it is for him to speak because he’s kept so much pain inside. He’s been through terrible things and truly understands the suffering that people carry. He’s on a personal journey, drifting like the wind, trying to find peace wherever he can. To figure out how to love, he turned to religion, but instead of comfort, he was told he doesn’t even fully grasp real suffering—the kind that time can’t heal. He talks about how deep childhood wounds never really go away, they keep coming back to your mind, over and over again. He feels lost and confused about why he was even born. There’s a moment of bitterness too—he questions his father’s role in bringing him into a world he never asked for. It’s like he’s asking everyone: do you really love this life, or are we just surviving it?
Refrain Meaning:
Damso is expressing frustration about being born without a say. He wonders why no one asked him if he wanted to come into this world. If he had the choice, he says it wouldn’t take him long to give his answer—implying it might not be a yes.
Post-refrain Meaning:
He compares life to a dream or to someone like Toni—full of promise—but it ends up in a place far from glamorous, like Mantes-la-Jolie, showing the gap between hope and harsh reality.
Couplet 2 Meaning:
He continues with the dream life comparison, like the glamorous life of Toni Braxton, but admits he’s made bad choices and started messing up. The pain doesn’t explode; it builds slowly, quietly, and deeply. He points out how many innocent people suffer while the Western world holds power over minds and culture. This imbalance creates mistrust, and from that mistrust come negative consequences. Love and kindness start to feel fake, like they’re staged. He ends by naming Kinshasa (Kin), showing where he comes from and hinting at beauty hidden behind pain.
Refrain Meaning:
Again, he questions why he was brought into the world without being asked. He repeats that if he had the chance to speak on it, he wouldn’t need much time to decide—suggesting again that he wouldn’t choose this life.
Post-refrain Meaning:
He repeats the idea of a dream life that ends in disappointment, using the same contrast between something idealized and the hard truth of where it really leads.
