je suis

it used to be follow your heart

and it still is

whether or not it should be

(although maybe nowadays "(and your head too)" should be added in afterthought fashion)

i guess age helps people figure out who they are

so that at some point in their lives they can proclaim with a certain degree of confidence that je sais qui je suis

but how can you ever arrive there without following your heart and seeing where it leads?

not in a mood to get philosophical, but suffice to say that for much of last year i followed my heart which led me to an incredibly low point. i was disappointed, but relieved to finally find out for myself where the treacherous road really leads, what lies beyond the obvious, and more importantly, that i am not exactly what i believed and thought i was, which then leads to, most importantly, the not entirely unexpected realisation that i therefore need to figure myself out

in short, follow my heart it is

avec nos vies de chien
y'a de quoi faire des histoires sans fin
la rue en fond, plus vrai que les infos
du vécu enfin, tu connais le refrain
on a faim, et rien n'est prêt de changer sauf
les gueules des bouffons sur les billets
si on s'en sort, ça changera pas la face du globe
on est juste des têtes brûlées à la conquête du monde
pas des modèles, on essaie tous de se faire une place
si Dieu veut, nous aussi un jour on sera en...
