Frérot Lyrics in English Black M , Soprano

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Frérot by Black M from French to English.
Friendship stories hurt
I've seen brothers end up losing their lives over it
Yeah when the devil gets involved
He'll say you're the only one who can reach the top
I wanted to ease my ego
I keep saying I didn't wanna hurt my bro
We pulled every stunt
Everything around me, my real guys don't give a damn
Together since we were kids
My heart tightens at the thought we've become enemies
Grown men now, it's not the same
My friend, I've become a family man
My ego
Not in front of the bros
I just wanted a real role
Not to hurt my bro
my ego
Tell me if I'm going too far
Should I start from zero
Not to hurt my bro
Bro
My bro
My bro, my bro
My bro, my bro
My bro, my bro
My bro, my bro
Bro
It's crazy how the years have flown by
They say your daughter will soon start high school
She must be so beautiful
Does she know our story, our brotherly bond
I know my dreams pulled me away
But to touch the stars you gotta know how to fly
It hurts me
When you think I changed for cash
A real brother doesn't doubt a brother's heart, especially
When he's fighting to make it
With all we've been through
I hope life plans to bring us together again
My ego
Not in front of the bros
I just wanted a real role
Not to hurt my bro
my ego
Tell me if I'm going too far
Should I start from zero
Not to hurt my bro
Bro
My bro
My bro, my bro
My bro, my bro
My bro, my bro
My bro, my bro
Bro
Forgive me if I hurt you
Forgive me if I offended you
But that wasn't my intention
My bro
Forgive me if I hurt you
Forgive me if I offended you
But whatever happens you'll still be my bro
My ego
Not in front of the bros
I just wanted a real role
Not to hurt my bro
my ego
Tell me if I'm going too far
Should I start from zero
Not to hurt my bro
Bro
My bro
My bro, my bro
My bro, my bro
My bro, my bro
My bro, my bro
Bro

SONG MEANING

Frérot is a heartfelt conversation between two childhood friends who have drifted apart. Black M and Soprano rewind the tape to their mischievous younger days, when they pulled off “les 400 coups” together and swore nothing could break their bond. Now adulthood, fame and a stubborn ego have slipped between them, turning shared memories into painful silence. The song moves like a confessional: each line mixes pride with regret, reminding us that even the strongest brotherhood can crack when ambition whispers, “You’re the only one who can reach the top.”

Yet behind the bruised feelings lies a sincere plea for reconciliation. The chorus repeats like an embrace—“Pas faire du mal à mon frérot”—promising that money, distance or mistakes will never erase real loyalty. By the end, the artists ask for forgiveness, imagining a future where life brings the “frérots” back together. It is at once a cautionary tale about letting ego win and a tender reminder that true friends remain family, no matter how long the detour home might be.
