Petit FrèRe

Little Brother

Little brother has only one wish to grow up
That's why he insists on playing wild since the age of 10
Becoming an adult with info as a mentor
It's smashing the faces of those who disagree
Back when big brother was a kid
We joked about Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs
Now the Dwarfs kicked out Snow White and fight
Beating guys like in Mortal Kombat
At 13 he already loves money greedily
But the pockets are empty, so we act tough
At parties, which are now nights out, no more Teisseire syrup
Little brother wants beers
I don't think it was intentional, but the adult certainly
Indirectly showed that doing wrong is good
Tomorrow his notebooks will be full of scribbles
Little Brother smokes joints and breaks cars

Chorus:
Little brother has left the playgrounds
He can barely walk and wants boots made for walking
Little brother wants to grow up too fast
But he forgot that there's no point in rushing, little brother

Little brother dreams of cars, clothes, money
Of a tough reputation, for all that, he would steal the moon
He collects misdeeds without caring
About the harm he causes, while demanding respect
He doesn't care what tomorrow will bring
Giving some reasons to despise his younger brother
In his mind, the glow of the TV screen
Has drowned out the vibrations of African drums
He has no more school bag, he wouldn't know what to do with it
He doesn't play marbles anymore, he wants to play with a gun
Little brother has thrown away his soldiers to become a warrior and
Think about the loot he will amass

Chorus

Journalists make trends, violence already existed in school
In my time, extortion, fights, damage
Bat hits on teachers' windshields
Fights with box cutters
But talking about it in the news every night, it becomes mundane
It prints in the retina as a normal situation
And if little brother wants to make a name for himself
He repeats what he saw before 8:30
Shit, in the 80s it was facts, but now
These journalists have made states
And I don't think little brother is worse than before
Just overexposed to ads, to violent acts
For adults, the kid is the best lemon
The number 1 target, the field of consumer products
And to make sure he gets them
Little brother makes sure, gun at the waist
We know what you are when we see what you own
Little brother knows it and keeps this fact in mind
Money would open doors to him
On a sky as blue as easily
As his screwdrivers open car doors
The high life is all he desires
It looks better when you wear Giorgio Armani
Concerned about people's opinions
Despite his age, little brother smokes to appear older
He would like to take the highway to fortune
And doesn't realize he could lose feathers along the way
He has barely hatched
And already little brother wants to be bigger than the ox

Chorus
