YA BABA Lyrics
Zadou dirham zadou machakil
Oh la vie c’est pas facile
Wa ya baba ya sidi
wa ya baba ya sidi
Zadou dirham zadou machakil
Oh la vie c’est pas facile
Wa ya baba ya sidi
wa ya baba ya sidi
7asada dayrin biya
3einin i tiriw fiya
C’est pas grave hadi denya
M3aya da3wa d’walidiya
Wa ya baba ya sidi
Mektabi machi byidi
Dirham ma bedlouni
hadi li mektoubi
Ooh mama 7ayat bedlat 3liya
Ch7al chafet 3iniya
Choufou ki welina
Ooh mama
Layali ch7al twila
Rahoum I 7diw ni ana
Million dayrin biya oooh
Zadou dirham zadou machakil
Oh la vie c’est pas facile
Wa ya baba ya sidi
wa ya baba ya sidi
Zadou dirham zadou machakil
Oh la vie c’est pas facile
Wa ya baba ya sidi
wa ya baba ya sidi
More money more problems
Pray for my enemies
Set back, watch French disappear
When he made it to the top
And the money try to stop him
And his friends they were never there
Wa ra baba, 3ando machakil
Ka salle fajr rabi sme3leh
Fach katla3 rah kay7asdo fik
Fach katla3 rah kaytiriw fik
Ya baba ya sidi
Life is short like a EP
More money more problems ya habibi
More money more problem ya Habibi
Zadou dirham, zadou machakil
Oh life is hard, c’est pas facile
Ya baba ya sidi
Ya baba ya sidi
Zadou dirham zadou machakil
Oh la vie c’est pas facile
Wa ya baba ya sidi
wa ya baba ya sidi
Zadou dirham zadou machakil
Oh la vie c’est pas facile
Wa ya baba ya sidi
wa ya baba ya sidi
YA BABA Lyrics Meaning
[Chorus]
The chorus, with its repetition of “Zadou dirham zadou machakil” and “Oh la vie c’est pas facile,” encapsulates the song’s primary theme: the complicated relationship between wealth and life’s challenges. The artist laments the difficulties that come with financial success, indicating that while wealth may seem like a solution, it can also create more problems and pressure. The repeated phrase “Wa ya baba ya sidi” suggests a plea for guidance or support, invoking a sense of vulnerability in the face of these struggles.
[Verse 1]
In the first verse, DYSTINCT reflects on personal challenges and the jealousy that surrounds his rise to success. The lines “7asada dayrin biya” (envy surrounds me) and “3einin i tiriw fiya” (eyes watching me) depict the artist’s awareness of the scrutiny and jealousy he faces. Despite these challenges, he remains grounded, drawing strength from his family’s prayers (“M3aya da3wa d’walidiya”), reinforcing the idea that his success is intertwined with his roots and the support of loved ones.
[Verse 2]
French Montana’s verse provides a candid reflection on the pressures that come with fame and wealth. He touches on the feeling of betrayal by friends and the constant struggle to maintain success amidst external challenges. The line “More money more problems” encapsulates the emotional toll that financial success takes on him. Additionally, the mention of how his rise to the top has led to envy and attempts to undermine him reflects a universal experience of alienation and isolation that often accompanies success.
[Verse 3]
The third verse further explores the theme of financial hardship, not just in terms of money but in the emotional strain of dealing with others’ expectations. The reference to “3ando machakil” (he has problems) in the context of dealing with challenges such as envy and pressure indicates a realization that everyone, no matter their position, faces internal and external battles. The lines about seeking divine help and praying for success showcase the reliance on spirituality and fate amidst worldly struggles.
[Chorus]
The chorus is repeated, reinforcing the song’s central message about the complexities of wealth and success. It emphasizes the cyclical nature of challenges and solutions, where one problem leads to another, highlighting the emotional weight of the pursuit of more. The repetition of “Wa ya baba ya sidi” further intensifies the plea for guidance and understanding in the face of these ongoing struggles.
