In "PICCOLI," which means "little ones" or "kids," Don Said takes us on a journey back to his youth in Sicily. He paints a vivid picture of a tough environment where many people get stuck, abandoning their dreams because they lack opportunities. He describes feeling like an outsider in his own unhappy home, even getting into a physical fight with his father. The lyrics are filled with memories of a difficult past, from friends getting arrested for stealing scooters to sharing hardships with his crew under a "gray sky."
Despite the struggles, the song is also a powerful tribute to friendship and loyalty. The artist reflects on how he and his friends have changed their lives. They went from being kids hanging out at a bar to becoming local stars that the new generation looks up to. He emphasizes that his bond with his original friends remains unbreakable, a constant in a life that has seen a lot of change. It's a story of escaping a difficult fate while never forgetting where you came from.
