[Iam - Chez Le Mac ft. Nalini/ English Translation]

[Chorus]
That's how, that's how it goes at the pimp's
That's how, that's how it goes at the pimp's

[Verse 1 - Akhenaton]
Mars downtown's dirty streets are my turf
Pimp as powerful as this fucking silver on the surf
I've took everything in hand and the pigs hesitate
No rackets, I'm free from stain remover vapors
And glue sticles to the bouts
The consonants, the vowels are all on all fours
Linguistic procurer, pur style
Fur coat and my life took another turn
I don't where this is leading me
But even those who love me describe me as a schizophrenic
I've made words work the streets for the sensation
Onto the street the sylables, prostituted the diction
Letters work for me
The dictionary is my territory, a country of which I wanna be the king
I treated sentences like true ladies
Hooked up the most beautiful one to put them in a vitrine like in Amsterdam
If you want the quality, you pay and cash
It blows your head off, consume it while tocking on hash
I have friend in the profession, it ain't in trend
But why do you think that DRS is called Mr Claude?
Kiddo, display your illusions of Benz
Your a shit on the market because your bars are lame
Too bad, the welfare keep an eye on you
My organisation is too well settled and too wild
My family comes from this neighborhood, that used to spook Hitler
Where the French is born to smack the whole world
I still remember it yet I must have been a kid
Scarface is not a dream, he existed here
The italiano takes the helm twenty years later
It's a completely new world, it's a completely new market
I'm discreet, distante, available, ready to disapear
My eternal discourse, only a dream can be reborn
One day, under a new form
Of a beginner, 26 letter 100.000 words at his disposal
Not everyone who wants to may be a pimp
But I come across serious competitors
So I redouble my efforts and close the game
If you want the bomb, you fork out Ronald
That's how, that's how it goes at the pimp's
[Bridge]
I, I work

[Chorus]
That's how, that's how it goes at the pimp's
That's how, that's how it goes at the pimp's

[Verse 2- Shurik'n]
The bald-headed lil n***a reappears
Me neither I haven't changed always ready to draw
My mic, plugged on a deck, play the song
Verify the console may the work be well done
Yeah, that's how it goes with the mic and samplers
Obeying to the letter, so who's the emperor?
The MPC works really hard for me
And at the slightest bug, they'll be pinned on the wall, that's for sure
The last melody I've recruited
Took two slaps after refusing of being truncated
In short I'm the material's boss
All the cables acting like pimp quickly hit a snag
No one is safe what do you think?
The letters too, work for me
26 letters, to each their own
Two slaps on the butt and here comes the dough
That's how it goes in my job
I have lots of employees and doesn't pay employer's welfare contribution
And it's been a long time since I had to clamp down
They have realized that their pleasure is to serve me
If they do it well, I put them in my bar
Social promotion for them, more wad of bills for me
But the creme de la creme, it's the verse when they reach it
It means they were ranked at the top in my notebook
The ones waiting something in return from me
Have a lot of hopes, they're actually still on the run
I reckon on quality not quantity
Of an organized service created to turn you high
There are planes, alternates, enclosing
Choose, each one has its specialty
I had to sweat a lot to come there
But it's useful to have family well placed in the field
The proc' of the apostrophe, the Caius Caesar of the comma
I should have been a librarian, I've always had a sense for bookers
Whatever you do, don't come knocking on my door without sterlings
That's how it goes at the pimp's
[Chorus]
That's how, that's how it goes at the pimp's
That's how, that's how it goes at the pimp's
