Solo Lyrics in English Zaho , Tayc

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Solo by Zaho from French to English.
Jalé, jalé, jalé boubou
Jalé, jalé, jalé boubou
Hey, hey
You have to stop showing up
In my dreams
Since you're no longer here
Nothing's the same
Right now it hurts
it hurts, it hurts
With you I wanted
To reach the top
Even if you just reaped
What you sowed
For now, I'm hurting
it hurts, it hurts
Baby you're giving me a headache
You, I want you to be
Honest with me
I can't carry this weight alone anymore
It's your call
Baby you're giving me a headache
You, I want you to be
Honest with me
I can't carry this weight alone anymore
It's your call
no no no no
I'll end up solo
I'll end up solo
I'll end up solo
no no no no
I'll end up solo
I'll end up solo
I'll end up solo
You let my mind think
That it's wrong, no
That everything's dead, no
That you didn't do anything
But, we were two
Wishing each other dead
Calling each other every name
The tears have fallen
Baby you're giving me a headache
You, I want you to be
Honest with me
I can't carry this weight alone anymore
It's your call
Baby you're giving me a headache
You, I want you to be
Honest with me
I've taken too much on myself
It's your choice
no no no no
I'll end up solo
I'll end up solo
I'll end up solo
no no no no
I'll end up solo
I'll end up solo
I'll end up solo
no no no no
I'll end up solo
I'll end up solo
I'll end up solo
no no no no
I'll end up solo
I'll end up solo
I'll end up solo

SONG MEANING

Solo is a bittersweet R&B confession in which Algerian-born singer Zaho and French-Cameroonian crooner Tayc revisit a love that has drifted into painful territory. All those hypnotic “Jalé, jalé” chants set the mood of a restless night where an ex keeps turning up in dreams, even though “rien n'est plus pareil.” The verses list the heart’s aches one after another: headaches, sleeplessness, the weight of memories, and the frustration of feeling like only one person is carrying the relationship.

Yet the hook, endlessly repeating “Je finirai solo,” flips the song into a declaration of freedom. If honesty and balance cannot be restored, the singer would rather end up alone than keep circling a toxic cycle of blame and hurt. In two voices, Zaho and Tayc capture that decisive moment when longing gives way to self-respect, turning heartbreak into an anthem of empowerment for anyone choosing solitude over suffering.
