Um Dia de Injúria

Amiri Amiri

A Day of Outrage

I'm going to share a story with you

Rakin was a calm kid
Full of complexes, thought he was so thin and weighed in grams not kilos
Wanted to have the same height as his cousins
Maybe it would help with his self-esteem
Clearly how shy he was
Rap shirt or Corinthians shirt, every day he saw mine not yours
Appearance and condition turning into jokes
Handout helped to make a dime
And he didn't take it from anyone
In school, in the classroom
Doesn't count, no one talks about aura there
Wanted to be elected the most beautiful, but no one voted for him in the ballot box
And he was in the class where each student
Didn't care how much he liked Bruna
Some joked: The demon!
Go, drawing of the Nikitos cookie!

I never bought into a fight so well
I thought about robbing a cashier
For my sisters and her, because she's black too
And it's because of them that she doesn't find me attractive!
He remembered all this today when entering the college bathroom
And seeing what was written on the door

You want the world for yourself, while I want something for me
Something that was stolen by you, something that will change the end
You want the world for yourself
No matter how much it costs or how many lives it costs
Or what I feel like being, oh oh oh

Ah, I'm going to kill someone today!
On second thought, I'm going to kill a lot!
But you're going to heaven, right? Can live
Guys, what's with that face? Let's celebrate!
Waiter, bring more Bacardi
A glass for Cocielo and another for Day McCarthy
Beautiful, just don't mind the taste of poison, okay?
Oops, it's already late!
Our equity lives in bed, you live in a building
Expensive apartment, the letter comes with the car
And college paid for, high cost of living, I didn't even finish high school
But, the quotas
Oh, stupid, that's a right, not a privilege!
Dude, think of God, remember the Bible, so much that the psalm
The psalm says
Shut up while I'm calm!
Today is the day I set you on fire!
I'm a sufferer, I hate all of you!
And of crimes, they'll have to put my name at the top of the list
That I'm fire on the track and on the Nazi logo
In this classist game of this racist people
Ah, and let Globo watch me!

You want the world for yourself, while I want something for me
Something that was stolen by you, something that will change the end
You want the world for yourself
No matter how much it costs or how many lives it costs
Or what I feel like being, oh oh oh

Hey! Call the press, I'm going to see myself
Enter shooting, take out the pseudo Hitlers
So, who's the monkey?
Who comes from a safari, man?
Calm down, brother
Brother? Are you flattering me?
Then sing
It can be from Pedro Mariano
No, it can't be, it would be a black person lightening
You're the typical good person
But loves to make jokes about black people
And even rap some now
Even says nigga
So take me to your leader

My sisters are not your nega
I'm not your nigger
Today I'm a hero
Supra ultra hyper
But I entered in a hurry and forgot the peace outside!
Hey! This is for all those who made fun of me
Think about your parents
Fuck it! I'll give five, in fact
A minute for you to shut up
Before someone explodes here!
Ah, forgive the lack of etiquette and education
That comes from upbringing, not from lyrics
But
There's no but, don't try your luck or get involved
If you've never cried for the death of black people
And don't know what it's like to be born without a cradle
It's inconceivable
Like Machado de Assis not having a verse
Or dying trying to prove
That you're as human as
