The bad memories
Sometimes it's deadly
Some blurry snapshots
Some old portraits
In a mess
When you're good
It's not necessarily sure
That everyone likes it
But when things go bad
They keep repeating to you
The same phrases
They always tell me
That it will be okay
Whatever the situation
In my life
Sometimes people think they're in my place
Without living it
Or that I can't do anything
Except rap
I'm late
But I'll get there one day
Maybe no one will be
At the meeting
To be happy
I was told it takes time
How do people do
Who are nuanced
What do I think about
When I dream in class
When I'm questioned
I don't answer
I make lots of stories
And the rest in cash
But I'm not the most discreet
So I stay in place
I play Fast n'Furious
In the back of the cart
Not necessarily good
In the educational system
I haven't found the secret remedy
To end the crisis
Yes, huh
The bad memories
Sometimes it's deadly
Some blurry snapshots
Some old portraits
In a mess
When you're good
It's not necessarily sure
That everyone likes it
But when things go bad
They keep repeating to you
The same phrases
Tell me if the Earth turns
And the sky is so blue
Why do we love so little
Tell me if the Earth turns
And the sky is so blue
Why do we love so little
Tell me if the Earth turns
And the sky is so blue
Why do we love so little
Tell me if the Earth turns
And the sky is so blue
Why do we love so little
The bad memories
Sometimes it's deadly
Some blurry snapshots
Some old portraits
In a mess
When you're good
It's not necessarily sure
That everyone likes it
But when things go bad
They keep repeating to you
The same phrases
The bad memories
Sometimes it's deadly
Some blurry snapshots
Some old portraits
In a mess
When you're good
It's not necessarily sure
That everyone likes it
But when things go bad
They keep repeating to you
The same phrases

SONG MEANING

Souvenirs feels like rifling through a dusty box of photos: some frames are blurry, others painfully sharp, and all of them tug at Sopico’s heart. Over a mellow guitar loop, the French rapper reflects on bad memories that can be deadly, the clichés people feed you when times are rough, and the nagging doubt that success may arrive after everyone has left the party. He paints himself as the kid day-dreaming in class, racing a shopping cart like it’s Fast & Furious, and struggling to find a cure for a society stuck in crisis.

When the hook asks, “If the Earth keeps turning and the sky is so blue, why do we love each other so little?” the song widens from personal nostalgia to a universal plea for empathy. In the end, “Souvenirs” invites listeners to accept their imperfect past, question empty encouragement, and keep pushing forward until their own rendez-vous with happiness finally shows up.
