Beauty ya hold my life
Captive in ya'r eyez yo
Ya abducted my soul
Wit' one gracious smile
Come now and save me
Or I'll have to die
Come now and save me
Or I'll have to die
They're between 25 and 30 years old
And live in the suburbs of our great cities
Royal rule has failed them
Few jobs
Few opportunities, and educational fees far too high...
Created a generation who knows it has been...
Set aside.
FCK Frütz, DJ A'l Jalis...
and I.U.A.F.L.A, yet chose another path.
While some of their friends turned to violence
They chose music to make it out the ghetto
But not just any kind of music, it's a new kind of rythmed music they called :
The VERTROU
What is "VERTROU" music to you ?
Well "VETROU" Ya know it's...

VERTROU music, iz da only way we found to carry our message inside the city walls.

What's the difference with the former forms of music ?

So ya know, we are going against the wave of...
Gregorian chants,
But we try to stay true to flows like M.C Macabru
Or M.C Ventadour, reprezent.
For realz, VERTROU music
It comez from da crusades, know what I mean ?
There'z no cheatin'

And he made them work
In his mines, in his fields, in his *** pits
