This song was born in France during summer 2018, after 3 years marked by severe terrorism violence in the country. Even if I was spared from this violence to a certain degree, it did move me, deeper than I thought at the time. I felt the need to understand what could lead someone to do such terrible things. This is what this song is about : trying to understand this madness, without accepting it.
The aim of this lyric video was to broaden the message behind this song. Yes, the lyrics are about terrorist radicalisation. But it is not about one religion or another. We used various clips of religious violence to prove that every religion can lead to terrible acts. There is in fact no problem with religion in itself, but there is one with what ill-disposed men can do with it.
Every teaching must be questioned. And this, when it comes to religion, tends to be forgotten.
And it's a bloody mistake.
