Nico & Vinz - People Lyrics






[Verse 1:]
If everybody were poor we would all be rich
If everybody up on this Earth were poor we would all be rich
If I had no work I would enjoy life
I would put my family first
I would spend some time with my baby
I would love them more and more
If I was poor I'd cut down trees to build my roof
I'd hunt in the forest
Get my fish from the ocean
Yeah, and we would live like the king and the queen
And we would have a little princess or prince
We would never have felt more free

[Chorus:]
People, people will always be people to me
Yeah, people, people will always be people to me
Yeah, we do wrong, we do right
Yeah, we do wrong and we do right
Yeah, we do wrong and do right
Cause people will always be people to me

[Verse 2:]
Here comes another Friday (Friday)
I haven't had work in weeks
I just wanna make a living (living)
And I promise I wouldn't need the sleep
If I could work everyday, work everyday, work everyday
Oh no, work everyday, work everyday, work everyday
I, I'd even work at night
I'd never take a day off rest of my life
I would send the kids to school, make sure they're alright
And make sure they're better than I, better than

[Chorus]

[Interlude]

[Chorus]

    Nico and Vinz your songs are like converstions. I am an English teacher in The People's Republic of China and I listen to your songs on my earphones every day, on the buses and in the taxis and then I am enveloped by the warmness of Africa. I am then whole again.

  6. F.... L....

    French translated:
    “ I can never forget that year back home, my Ivory Coast. We didn’t have much but we were happy. It taught me to not complain but to be good with myself. We’re only human after all, we’re all the same.
    We do good then we do bad, but it’s your choice. “

  7. S.... A....

  10. F.... D....

    THATS WHAT HE IS SAYING IN FRENCH ''I could never forget this year back in my country, my Ivory Coast. We didn't have to much but we were happy. This learned me to not complain and accept myself. We all are only humans and all the same. We do good we do bad but its our choice to make!''

    Freedom is the most important thing in life is it not? free will and choice. In this modern world, truly how free are we? we wake up Monday- friday at 9am go to work till 5pm come home eat sleep watch TV/Youtube repeat. We dont really have much of an alternative. Freedom isn't freedom is it. What is freedom then? in this world who is truly free?

    do we have frredom of choice? sure we do but the options are made limited by external controls. Now the kind of freedom of choice we have is being allowed to decide between McDonalds and KFC lol

    z.... ....

    After such deep insight into freedom, I hope you can find your freedom in other ways. Even with those limited options we can make the choice to create a lavish homemade meal. I am sure you have never thought about this. We have many options in life that we are not thinking about. Some maybe I cannot name. So think of this as a challenge. Most of all be HAPPY :) :) :) :)

    z.... ....

    Freedom is in knowing the truth, and the truth shall set you free!

  17. K.... E....

    What language is he using and what is he saying I know one of the languages is French???

    K.... E....

    that's French. he said " I will never forget this year in my country, my Ivory Coast. we never had a lot but we were happy. it thought me to never complain and to be proud (happy) with who I am. we are just men, we are all the same. we do good, then we do evil(bad), but it is your choice"!

  18. G.... P....

    J'aime ecouter cette chanson. It's pretty cool being to see how much I can understand each time I listen to it. J'aime apprendre le francais!

  24. L.... R....

    I'm not sure of the first line, but here is the gist of the French: I never forgot my country, my ivory coast. We didn't have much but we were happy. Then i decided to not worry, but be happy where i am. We're just people, we're all equal. We do right, and then we do wrong. It's a choice.

  25. G.... M....

    I love it, and I can't wait to see a video.

  26. J.... C....

    Could anyone tell me what the words in French mean in the people song. Wendy

    W.... P....

    The French says "I'll never forget this year in my country, my Ivory Coast (Cote d'Ivoire). We didn't have a lot but we were happy. It taught me to complain but to be good with who I am. We are all men, we all the same. We do good and we also do bad but it's your choice."

  28. C.... A....

    We are man/ human beings. We do good and we do bad but its a choice.
