OrelSan - Notes pour trop tard (English Translation)
[Intro]
Ok, I was your age at something like your age ago
The transition to adulthood is slippery in turns
Becoming a man : there's no try, no catching up
Now you're in the big pool, guess how to swim
You'll always have this rage, this desire to take off
To beat up the guys who play guitar on the beach
As everytime you move out, it's a world collapsing
Listen, the story is written by turning the pages
Listen
I took some notes

[Unique verse]
If you feel like nobody understands you, it's because no one does
It's easier to live with once you know it
How can you be mad at them ? you don't understand yourself
Often alone with your problems, often you are the problem
Most of adults advices are shitty clichés
Because they didn't get the game but they follow the rules
So don't listen too much to your parents, prentend to
They don't have the infuse science, you are their first child
You'll waste so much time to fight
There's struggles you can't win, mostly when you don't pay the rent
Make yourself a reason, there's no many reasons to mess up
In your own house, even if you're right
If there's a thing you don't have to question
You are smarter than before, but you're still very dumb
You are too sensible, you take everything as an aggression
Ask a crazy guy if he's crazy and you'll see his answer
Another thing you have to know : you won't fuck tonight
Once you'll get this, you'll feel free
Because you are starving from this and it's gonna show up
Because you're way too shy, you'll drink too much
Learn to shut up, you'll seem mysterious
Learn how to better show yourself, you'll fuck in a month or two
It's always the same type of girl you fall in love to
You know, the kind of girl who make you sad
So don't be a crybaby the day she breaks your heart
On the long time, you are saving tears
Then, you'll be afraid to involve yourself, you'll tell yourself that it's better somewhere else
Than where you are, you'll miss the best of what you already have
In summary, you fuck with your girlfriend while thinking about another one
You didn't like it
You think about her when you're fucking with the other one once she left you
Ok
You'll never avoid people to talk
And as you're weird, maybe some poeple would want to beat you
You can do pumps, you can learn how to fight
Even muscular it hurts to get punched
Your brain and your ego work backwards
The more you try to prove something, the more it does the opposite
When you say you're not scared, you are scared
When you say you're not hurt, it's that you start feeling the pain
Know your limits, don't overestimate yourself
You'll see, sometimes, you'll lose against people you thought they were bad as fuck
Of course, live is unfair
If you don't like laws, don't be a fucking judge
Don't believe the insults, there's no race to be a bastard
To be a son of a bitch, no need to have your mom on the streets
There's no sexuality to be an assfucker
The more you react, the more you show you are hurt, let it slide
The best jokes are the meanest or the stupidests
But the worst human beings are evil losers
Never attack the weakest, keep the jokes in your head
It will fit in a text, a movie or a show
School is a nightmare, there's no much to do
Leaving is going too soon in another shit
Throw your schoolbag away, you'll have the height of the society on your shoulders
An employer your dad and your mom
Most of the lessons are useless
But porn actresses being the proof : fapping nothing only moves away the end
You say "we'll see", you're acting pretentious but you are weak
As at the screening, you regret at the examination
School is a filter that makes everything boring
Like black and white movies : the harder is to get in
It's harder when you're apprenhending, like your first time
I'm doing sexual metaphors since the begining because you only
Think about this
Tell yourself that the spanish girls are the sexiest in the world
Listen in spanish class, just imagine that in chemistry class you could be making drugs
Stop learning by heart things that you didn't understand
And in philosophy you weren't supposed to talk about your life
By the way, no one forces you to smoke weed
In fact, it's more efficient on hyperactives
Being high, isn't even your favourite part
When you're high, all you're doing is acting like if you weren't
Your favourite part is going in band at Jardiland
Steal bamboo and make a bang
You just need a passion
So listen to orientation advisers and do the opposite
Of what they'll tell you
In summary, all the things people tell you : "you're wasting your time"
You have to invest yourself in a lot and keep doing it for a long time
If you want to make movies, you just need something to film
Saying : "I don't have enough stuff or enough contacts", is a loser-minded thing
We'll always tell you to be first, not to be happy
Being first is for people who need a grade, who don't trust themselves
You're at the moment of your life when you can become everything you want
The same moment it's the hardest to know what you want
Except zonning with your friends
Not missing the last rumor, the last funny thing
Honnestly, you won't miss anything if you go away for 4 years
Whatever, it's important, do shit while you still can
To avoid waking up someday at 40 years old
Like : "Fuck, I'll die soon but I've never enjoyed my life
My familly is ruining my life, I've got to leave them
To take coke in nightclubs and find young girls to vampirise"
I see a lot of them, so little terrorist, go have fun
In parties even if, I admit, you'll fail
You'll come back home next week or the year after
You wouldn't have fucked tonight anyway, if I have to remember it to you
If you get it, take your ticket in picture
Realize that you don't know how to drink, you died too soon
When it becomes a pride to drink a lot
It's that you get attached to not much
Stop being scared, if you want, dance
The only rule on the dancefloor is : don't try things you've never tried
If you ever fall asleep first at a party
Look at yourself in a mirror is the basis when you woke up
Just in case
It will avoid doing familly lunches with a dick drawn on your cheek
Those familly reunions where you're bored, where we talk really loud
To say really common things, but we talk and it's already not too bad
The truths are complicated, clichés are stable
Sorry if you don't have only experts at your table
You're blocking on others faults, and it's your worst fault
Life is cycles, that's why I'm falling back on the same words
Don't be paranoid about who are your real friends
There's only one way to know it : let time sort it
I've never regretted asking for advices or calling someone
Often, you think they're weird, it's just that it doesn't pick up very well
The same story has many different versions
The best way to get out of a muddle is to ask questions
Stop running away, anguished by the future
There's no way to prepare to the worst
Just like attacks, bad news strike when you don't expect them
Relatives a bit hurried will leave before you
You'll see happy people picking a call
Their face decomposes and nothing is ever the same
There's nothing to do except being here
Heal the wounds, change the bandages, the only remedy is time
