Céu Aberto

I've always been the ego like this
I never stopped fighting
Only my pillow knew the agony I had to see a new day arrive
The fear that dwelled in me
Was afraid just to look at me
When I woke up with a stern face
And shouted to the world: I was born to shine

One day they told me that every poet is crazy and doesn't sleep well
One day they looked at me sideways and whispered softly: You won't be anyone
One day they told me that every poet is crazy and doesn't sleep well
One day they looked at me sideways and whispered softly: You won't be anyone

Drama, fame, plot, the traumas are damn on top of my bed
When I stop to think that those who hug me don't love me
Every weekend the guys drown in the mud
And they want to prove to me that what they do is right

I'll be someone just to prove to these assholes
That my verses are worth much more than gold
It's like a direct shot to the heart
Arriving before the tears fall

Imagine the vibe inside my car
Look at the smoke coming out of the ceiling
Sometimes the day dawns cloudy
But inside me there's always an open sky

One day they told me that every poet is crazy and doesn't sleep well
One day they looked at me sideways and whispered softly: You won't be anyone
One day they told me that every poet is crazy and doesn't sleep well
One day they looked at me sideways and whispered softly: You won't be anyone

I'll watch sitting here from the chair
Watching this world end
And every time I look around
My saint calls me and begs me to say just one prayer
And to take a minute of the day to put my knee on the ground
I'll ask with faith that war and hunger stop haunting
And that our lady in days of struggle come to guide me
That she frees me from the chaos of the bloody routine, and the war movie
And that my enemies don't take long to fall
