Italia Lyrics in English Jul

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Italia by Jul from French to English.
It's been a while
Since I hadn't taken Maria out
She wants me to slide
The ring on her finger
I rented the 458 Italia
I'm like mom
Sometimes I listen to Dalida
It's been a while
Since I hadn't taken Maria out
She wants me to slide
The ring on her finger
I rented the 458 Italia
I'm like mom
Sometimes I listen to Dalida
There're lows and b*tches, that's life
I struggled before being a celeb
Bro, what you did to me
Yeah, I don't deserve it
Day by day
I feel my heart crumbling
FIFA, joint going round
FIFA, joint going round
I ride by Terrasse on the bike
I ride by Terrasse on the bike
The bros only want b*tches
The bros want b*tches
I'm gonna head home, wanna see Tchikitass
I'm homebound, gonna see Tchikitass
Yo, damn
Yo, damn
Talk to the lawyer about the papers
About the papers
And in the cell, they're waiting for pardons
And in the cell, they're waiting for pardons
You changed, you see me, you jet
You changed, you see me, you jet
It's been a while
Since I hadn't taken Maria out
She wants me to slide
The ring on her finger
I rented the 458 Italia
I'm like mom
Sometimes I listen to Dalida
It's been a while
Since I hadn't taken Maria out
She wants me to slide
The ring on her finger
I rented the 458 Italia
I'm like mom
Sometimes I listen to Dalida
I park the Audi, weather's nice
I grab the bike
Ask Tchyko
With metal in the ride
We hide the weed
Cops in the rearview
Under an Arai helmet
We bolt when the piece jams
Since you hurt me
Between us, it's not the same
I park the Audi, weather's nice
I grab the bike
Ask Tchyko
With metal in the ride
We hide the weed
Cops in the rearview
It's been a while
Since I hadn't taken Maria out
She wants me to slide
The ring on her finger
I rented the 458 Italia
I'm like mom
Sometimes I listen to Dalida
It's been a while
Since I hadn't taken Maria out
She wants me to slide
The ring on her finger
I rented the 458 Italia
I'm like mom
Sometimes I listen to Dalida

SONG MEANING

Fast cars, flashing lights, and a girl named Maria set the scene in “Italia.” Jul whisks his love interest away in a rented Ferrari 458 Italia, promising the thrill of the open road and hinting at a future together with “la bague à la manita” (a ring on her hand). Nostalgic touches—like listening to iconic singer Dalida just like his mom—soften the glitter of luxury, showing Jul’s blend of modern swagger and old-school sentimentality.

Beneath the revving engine, though, lies a raw confession. The rapper flips between glamour and street reality: hiding weed from the blue flashing lights, friends chasing only “pétasses,” paperwork with lawyers, and cellmates praying for clemency. Success has come, but it cost trust and peace of mind, and his heart “s’effrite” (crumbles) a little more each day. “Italia” is both a joyride and a diary entry, capturing Jul’s push-and-pull between love, loyalty, and the relentless pace of fame.
