A Favela Venceu
Israel Santos
The Favela Won
Fireworks, little radio in hand
Gun on the waist, the focus was ostentation
But my mother promoted strong prayer
And with my God planted in my mouth, He saved me from death
And the favela listening to a mother praying
Suddenly the BOPE invades to be able to kill
Cornered by the men, I remembered her prayer
The favela won because Jesus stepped on war.
The favela won, the favela won
The trafficker is now a man of God
The favela won, the favela won
The prostitute is now a woman of God
The favela won, the favela won
The trafficker is now a man of God
The favela won, the favela won
The prostitute is now a woman of God
