Lágrimas de Mãe (feat. Vekina)

[Vekina]
I cry for my daughter
I cry for my love

[Dama do Bling]
I start this conversation calling you daughter
As I consider as if you came out of my belly
And because motherhood has various forms
It's not always blood that makes us family
I hoped that we would be great friends
The kind that talk and share secrets
But from what I see we will be mother-in-law and daughter-in-law rivals
Living in the same house but living like animals
I welcomed you with open arms and heart
I searched for a friend like rain in the desert
I wanted a daughter, a friend, a companion
But I was treated as a snake, witch, sorceress
We are two women who love the same man
In different ways but the feeling is noble
And because he is the man who chose you
I have known my son since the day he was born
Understand, I am your husband's mother
He is like a little boy to me
And if you were a mother, tell me deep down
Wouldn't you want the best for your son?

[Vekina]
Now we are not two good friends
But one day you will feel what I feel
Because my tears roll
Roll, roll
On my face
Oh yeah, yeah

[Dama do Bling]
You will only understand on the day you become a mother-in-law
When your son brings home a daughter-in-law
When you feel on your skin this contempt that I feel today
When you understand a mother's love for a son
You can't imagine the pain in your heart when you argue
You humiliate him, shout, call him useless
And I can't interfere, I bleed inside
I stay silent in the pain of a mother, I invent myself
It hurts to see your son all crumpled
Leaving for work poorly dressed, poorly fed
You don't cook, you live on takeaways
Plastic food every day of the month
When I give you tips and share recipes
I try to be your friend, I try to advise you
But you think I want to compete with you
As if you could win that war
As the older one, I only pass on the baton
So that you don't fail in your home due to your pride
I want to warn you of the pitfalls of the relationship
Just as you also preserve this marriage

[Vekina]
Now we are not two good friends
But one day you will feel what I feel
Because my tears roll
Roll, roll
On my face
Oh yeah, yeah

I don't want to push you back
The truth hurts but you just have to accept it
Change is the solution, live without tears
Together we are strong
(We are strong)
We can be our support

[Dama do Bling]
Don't look at me as your eternal rival
You shouldn't worry about me
When I call your attention, when there's smoke in the air
It's as a mother and woman that I try to warn you
My heart will always be open, my daughter
Just like my son, you will be treated as family
But the fate of this fight is in your hands
I just want you to remember that there is only one mother

[Vekina]
Now we are not two good friends
But one day you will feel what I feel
Because my tears roll
Roll, roll
On my face
Oh yeah, yeah
