Se Olhares Para o Caminho

If you look at the path,
You will see that not only legs are needed
To walk but also motivation,
Don't listen to what they say, follow what you feel
Because what you feel is more than they give you
If you look at the path you will see
That not only legs are needed to walk but also motivation

If you look at the path
If you look at the path
If you look at the path

For the speeches and sermons you didn't hear
For the cold and shivers you didn't feel
For the good and bad moments, for the feelings you've already left behind
I gave you warnings to open your mind
But you just laughed
I didn't want to, but life itself gave you the warning

It was when you went down the stairs, there you are in the mess again,
In the midst of stupidity with a frown for the food and a visit per month,
Do you remember when your mom scolded us if we were stung by bees?
They were bells rung and stones thrown on roofs
Running on the ground, playing in the dust,
What calmed us down was grandma's coffee,
I miss those good times,
Why don't we want to go back there?

It's moments when we don't have them that we remember
That we lived them and were there but we're not there anymore
But we are born and we also die and we also make mistakes
But mistakes are to swallow and that's it and life
Has turned so much that in the end you're dizzy
I understand, I swear I understand,
But if you want to talk, I'm here, I'm your cousin
My boy, don't be afraid

And whether in hunger or thirst as a cousin and as a brother
I'm here to help you and to call your attention
Because all that is bad only comes when least expected,
And to put some sense into your head, my boy, I wish I could,
I know that living is already complicated in itself
But sitting still you watch your mother
Who enters the cycle of seeing her son full of troubles and courts
And your father who drinks triple and it's for you that he drinks more!

Bro, you tell me where you're going, I'm here no matter what happens,
But I lower my head if they ask me when you're leaving,
I hope you endure and grow,
So that one day you do what your cousin couldn't do
