Frérot Lyrics in English Slimane

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Frérot by Slimane from French to English.
I look pretty calm
Under my street performer appearance
But I have a rebellious teenage brother
Who wants to be a bank robber
I'm losing my friends
It seems like I'm not making much effort
But my brother is causing me trouble
I can't even count all the bruises on his body anymore
Brother
I don't agree
Brother
You'll have to go through me first
Brother
Step over my body
In life, brother
I still believe
I would like to say yes to him
But I lack time for love
If she knew how much I desire
Just one night
To settle down
Let myself be rocked and give up on my promise
Dad, mom, if you only knew
I live in the shadow of my youth
Brother
I don't agree
Brother
You'll have to go through me first
Brother
Step over my body
In life, brother
I still believe
My brother, my pain
My burden, my ten plagues
Even if it means forgetting my own heart
I would lose myself to save you
Brother
I don't agree
Brother
You'll have to go through me first
Brother
Step over my body
In life, brother
I still believe
In life, brother
I still believe
