Iam Petit Frère English Translation Meaning
| [[Intro: Inspectah Deck sample] “Life as a shorty shouldn’t be so rough” [Verse 1: Akhenaton] Little brother’s only wish was to be a grown up That’s why he’s been acting tough since he was 10 Becoming an adult with the news as his mentor Means beating the shit out of those who disagree Back when big brother was a kid We could geek out over Snow White and the Seven Dwarves But now the dwarves have done away with Snow White And now they beat up people in Mortal Kombat At 13, he already has a lust for money But his pockets are empty so he acts gangsta At slumber parties and now ragers, no more Teisseire syrup Little brother wants beer I don’t think it was intentional, but adults certainly If indirectly showed him that being bad is good Tomorrow his notebooks will be all crossed out Little brother smokes spliffs and breaks car windows [Chorus: Shurik’N & (Akhenaton)] Little brother has left the playground (He can barely walk but wants seven-league boots) Little brother wants to grow up too fast But he forgot that running is useless, little brother , [Post-Chorus: Inspectah Deck sample] “Life as a shorty shouldn’t be so rough” [Verse 2: Shurik’N] Little brother dreams of cars, clothes and money Street cred, for all of that he’d steal the moon He racks up a rap sheet without a care For the harm he’s done, all while asking for respect It doesn’t matter to him what tomorrow will bring To give some people reasons to despise their younger peer The cathode ray tube in his head Has blocked out the vibrations of the African drums No more schoolbag, he wouldn’t know what to do with it He doesn’t play with marbles anymore, he wants to play with revolvers Little brother threw away his toy soldiers to become a warrior And focus on the loot he’s gonna hoard [Chorus: Shurik’N & (Akhenaton)] (Little brother has left the playground) He can barely walk but wants seven-league boots Little brother wants to grow up too fast But he forgot that running is useless, little brother [Post-Chorus: Inspectah Deck sample] “Life as a shorty shouldn’t be so rough” , [News reporter sample] “Times have changed. Tomorrow will be better. You’ll see.” [Verse 3: Akhenaton] The reporters start the trends, school violence already existed In my day, it was rackets, fights, vandalism Shattering our teachers’ windshields with bats Chaos with boxcutters But covering it on the news every evening makes it ordinary It’s imprinted in the retina like a normal situation And if little brother wants attention He just has to imitate what he saw before 8:30 Shit, in the ’80s, it was the statement of facts but now These reporters make facts out of statements And I don’t think little brother was worse before Just overexposed to the advertisements of violence For the grown ups, kids were the best lemons The number 1 target market for consumer products And to secure a part of it for himself Little brother secured himself with a gun on his belt [Verse 4: Shurik’N] They know who you are when they see what you have Little brother knows and keeps that fact in mind Money opened the doors to a blue sky As easy as his screwdrivers opened those of cars Grandstanding is all he wants It feels even better when you’re wearing Giorgio Armani Worried about other people’s perception of him Despite his young age, little brother smokes to look more grown up He wanted to take the highway to riches But didn’t realize he could lose his feathers He just barely got out of his egg And already, little brother wants to be bigger than an ox , [Chorus: Shurik’N & (Akhenaton)] (Little brother has left the playground) He can barely walk but wants seven-league boots Little brother wants to grow up too fast But he forgot that running is useless, little brother [Post-Chorus: Inspectah Deck sample] “Life as a shorty shouldn’t be so rough”] |
