Mano Underground

Jotapê Jotapê

Underground Brother

Six years ago I remember, my man, the ideas were different (few ideas)
I was dropping some bars with the goal of being on Poetas no Topo (you understand me, lil nigga?)
But the scene changed, what's in the water of today's rappers?
He says he's cool, but he's only where he is with other people's ideas

He says he's cool but he stole the aesthetic
From an underground brother
He says he's cool but he stole the aesthetic
From an underground brother
From an underground brother
I'm an underground brother
I'm a ghetto brother, and in the ghetto she knows
If you lack conduct, you'll lack fingers, that's my reality

I see some guys talking and talking on the net
Drop the beat, he won't last a round
I'm feeling like in the Premier League
I step on the field and these white guys applaud me
My brother gives you a four-corner tea and doesn't even smudge the nail polish
You could succeed in life, if my self-esteem didn't affect you
You could succeed in life, but you entered the field dreaming of being a runner-up
I act like a champion, and it wouldn't make sense if I didn't
It's because I was born with a vision in a reality where being shortsighted is fashionable
It's because I was born with the mission of bringing this perspective to my ghetto

That's why I can't make mistakes in the lyrics
My studio has been almost like a gallows
I've never been one to follow trends
The black sheep, always against
The lady pointing her finger at me
Can't see the nine pointing back at you
A lot of faith in God even on bad days
No mountain is moved by force
My faith moves me
If it wasn't for her, I'd already be in trouble
If it wasn't for her to save my life, I would have taken someone else's
I have a mother, girlfriend, sister, and niece
I no longer have time to waste
I no longer have time to play around
I want everything I've invested in this shit

He says he's cool, but he's only where he is with other people's ideas

He says he's cool, but he stole the aesthetic, the rhyme, the flow, and the hair of the guy who's been hustling for a few days
I come from battles, damn, my daily life is literally kill or be killed
My fans know that I was born to make history and not to make a story
I'm not a blogger, I'm a rapper, but what can I do if the hood is in the spotlight?
I'm the best in Brazil and the worst in my neighborhood
When you understand this line, I'll already be buying my third car
And I haven't even bought the first one yet, but I know you understand me, lil nigga
I listened to Tchelo and composed this track
Hey Magrão, we're the little favela
(The little favela)
