Super Billy

Grandma, where's Uncle Billy?
I'll have your grandpa look for him
So go there, because I miss you

Take a deep breath, you'll die
In a second, what do you want? (Say!)
I don't want to see the evil
In a brother who didn't know what crack was

Superior, Super Billy
This destroys you, it corrodes me inside
When I see you wanting to be a superhero
I don't like it, I call the guys
It brings disgrace
They escape, they don't escape, sometimes they escape
They're out in the early morning making several mistakes, what madness
Those who live know how to say, those who die know why
At the party at dawn
Kryptonite prevails in the surviving duo
Wrapped up, afraid of the sun
Billy wrapped up, looks like a hook
With his attractive energy Billy feels
His tongue suddenly getting stiff
Attack! Attack! Overdose attacks
Grab a spoon, put it under the tongue or he won't make it
Big Madureira encouraging several kids
Damn wrong dude, almost the first kid goes
The first one got relaxed
The second, hah, never forgets

Another born and raised in the South Zone
Rejected in the favela, was just another one
In the periphery just another common guy
Another born and raised in the South Zone
Rejected in the favela, was just another one
Just another common guy
Just another common guy

Billy Billy Billy Billy, hah
Billy Billy Billy Billy, I'm coming!
As time passes, Billy recovers
Takes the spoon from under his tongue and goes to get a rock
To see, Billy out and about, it's normal
Going out to catch 1 real
With no money in his pocket, some crazy guy gets sick
5 in the morning, his dad has to go to work
Turns the corner and finds Billy near Lagoa's bar
Where two weeks ago they killed an old lady
Billy, what are you doing at this hour in the boat?
Ah dad, I went out with the girls, I'm just arriving
Simply, Billy lies
He was in the shack all night
Getting wasted on the pipe with Madureira
Billy in the game meets Cipó
Cipó, with one in hand, already calls for the hideout
1 2 3, Billy doesn't think twice
The pipe is ready, Cipó made it
Billy knocks on heaven's door, hears the defendant
In his mother, the pain that hits the chest, there's no way
For his friends he got into crime, lost respect
Mr. João reveals to Mrs. Maria
Senses the end of a dream to see his son graduate in law
As he promised so many times to his parents
That he didn't mess with drugs, was doing well in school
And his teachers were nice
Mrs. Maria always said: Keep an eye out João
Now it's harder to control the addiction
He's addicted to crack, every time he smokes he wants another hit

Another born and raised in the South Zone
Rejected in the favela, was just another one
In the periphery just another common guy
Another born and raised in the South Zone
Rejected in the favela, was just another one
Just another common guy
Just another common guy

Another victim, no trace left
Kryptonite, that's how life is
Hard to live, those who live know how to say, those who die know why
Poor and old Mrs. Maria, forgotten in the favela
Mr. João unwell, dying of grief
Mr. João is an old black man, has cunning
Already surrendered to God, just waiting for the news
It's sad for the father to know that already
His son is going, only bad company
Bad ideas, creatures
That are worthless, the first one took the bait
Madureira was lynched towards Inocoop
Beating, stoning, even shock, for what he did it was too little
They tortured this death, then
Gave 2 shots to the head, but he was already dead
It's the end for those who misbehave, settling scores (I'm coming!)
At 10 sharp, let's go to the spot, it's right there
Let's catch a bus to the park and go straight to Aracati, there's a party up there
But first let's pass by Vaz de Lima
There I heard that Cipó is gone
1 2, they didn't give him a chance
Quick, no one saw, pow-pow-pow and he fell
Another scoundrel who rose in mid-April
August 15 of any year
It was Billy's turn, died near the café
Tied up, hanged
Died like a fag, dressed as a woman
Mr. João couldn't bear the fact
Died two weeks later, of a heart attack
Mrs. Maria cries every day
Misses her family
Her old man, her son
The rosary is now her shelter
With it in hand she asks for protection
And asks to leave; looks to the sky and says
That every time it rains it's her boy crying

Believe me, Cobra
There are several stories, everyone has memories that come from beyond
But also see well, it's not good for anyone
Here in the area there's also this problem too
I just say amen Helião has no grudge against anyone all right
It's not just for me Connection of the Hill good guys
It's always like this sound that hits the globe Sandrão
Also part of the game of license I'll arrive
Just to summarize everyone knows that if it's to put in the paper
Then proceed man get out of me without this pipe
I'm calm that's from my corner you know collectivity everywhere
Jardim Imbé, Capão Redondo, Pirituba not to mention
Helião is a compadre Connection of the Hill, RZO is customary

Another born and raised in the South Zone
(Periphery is like this)
Rejected in the favela, was just another one
This is the law of one by one, a common guy
Another born and raised in the South Zone
(Get out of the cops' sight)
Rejected in the favela, was just another one
Another dum-dum bullet
Just another common guy
Becomes a statistic in the South Zone
