La chanson évoque la douleur d'une mère face à la perte de son fils, un tragique reflet des réalités des quartiers difficiles. Elle aborde les problèmes profonds qui gangrènent ces communautés, notamment l'absence de figures paternelles et le fait que l’argent prime sur les relations humaines. À travers le récit d'un jeune qui dialogue avec un ancien du quartier, il est souligné que les violences et les difficultés qui touchent les jeunes les poussent à se méfier des autres, rendant toute solidarité presque impossible. Le contexte est celui des luttes socio-économiques et des inégalités dans les ghettos, où la survie semble primer sur l'amour et le soutien mutuel. La quête d'une solution, d'une échappatoire à cette spirale destructrice, se transforme en un cri vers Dieu, interrogeant la manière dont on peut s'en sortir quand les moyens manquent.
