I spent half of my night killing zombies on Call Of
My guys steal then fall like leaves in autumn
They prove our teachers right
Conditioned to do nothing with our sad lives
I've been waiting for a sign since, my buddy joins a girl
Near a gay club in Strasbourg Saint-Denis
A glass of rum and a gin and tonic, she had J.Lo's body
Intoxicated, asleep, rocked by the sound of the fan
He talked about dreams, she talked about investing in crypto
She wanted a strong and powerful guy like in The Count of Monte Cristo
But damn, we have our flaws, we fill the void until becoming guinea pigs
The making-of of boredom, far from a coral reef
Brother, a view of buildings, not a coastline
Youth escapes into a hospital room or a psychodrama
Awake all night
I didn't sleep
All night
All night, I wondered how I was gonna make this money
Just to save mine, not to plant a flag on the moon
It's true I have too much resentment
For now, I don't have a posthumous song
Nah, nah, nah-nah-nah, how am I gonna make this money
Just to save mine, not to plant a flag on the moon
It's true I have too much resentment
For now, I don't have a posthumous song
Nah, nah, nah-nah-nah
Six in the morning, on an empty beach
In my city, that's when I'm truly myself
I feel alive, without pretending to pay attention to who knows what
I'm already thinking about telling all this to Elena
I also tell myself, when I get back, I'll hug my mom tight
Blind love, far from being tactile
No family hugs, in fact, I'm never there
I disguise my absence
Cursed artist's life, we all live like artists
All on a razor's edge, playing the tightrope walkers
You're looked at differently for a strange jacket
Tension quickly rises, you find yourself near angels
We look at the stars, they say the stars only talk about us
Driven by our desires, we end up in the wolf's mouth
Awake all night
I didn't sleep
All night
All night, I wondered how I was gonna make this money
Just to save mine, not to plant a flag on the moon
It's true I have too much resentment
For now, I don't have a posthumous song
Nah, nah, nah-nah-nah, how am I gonna make this money
Just to save mine, not to plant a flag on the moon
It's true I have too much resentment
For now, I don't have a posthumous song
Nah, nah, nah-nah-nah
How am I gonna make this money?
Just to save mine, not to plant a flag on the moon
It's true I have too much resentment
For now, I don't have a posthumous song
Nah, nah, nah-nah-nah

posthumeposthumous

Posthume translates to "posthumous," meaning occurring, awarded, or appearing after the death of the originator. It's a sophisticated word not commonly found in everyday lyrics, making it stand out.

In the song, Georgio reflects on his life and legacy, stating, "J'ai pour l'instant présent pas d'chanson à titre posthume" (For the present moment, I don't have a song with a posthumous title). This line reveals his contemplation of his impact and whether his work will endure beyond his lifetime, adding a layer of depth and introspection to the track.

Ever stayed up all night worrying about the future? That's the feeling Georgio captures in "Posthume." The song paints a picture of a restless night filled with video games, memories of friends who have fallen, and a deep anxiety about making enough money. But this isn't about getting rich for fame. The lyrics make it clear the goal is much more personal: to take care of his loved ones ("Seulement pour sauver les miens" - Only to save my people).

Georgio contrasts the gritty reality of city life with moments of quiet reflection on an empty beach. He explores the pressures of being an artist, feeling absent from his family, and the sense that life is a delicate balancing act. The title itself, "Posthume" (Posthumous), is key. He repeats that he has no "posthumous song," meaning he's focused on the here and now, on providing for his family while he's alive, rather than worrying about the legacy he'll leave behind after he's gone.
