Rap do Silva

Release the rap, DJ!

He was just another Silva whose star doesn't shine
He was a funk singer, but he was a family man
He was just another Silva whose star doesn't shine
He was a funk singer, but he was a family man

It was a sunny Sunday, he left in the morning
To play his soccer, gave a rose to his sister
Kissed the kids, promised not to be late
Told his wife he would come back for lunch

He was a worker, took the crowded train
Had good neighbors, was well-regarded
And everyone said he was a cool guy
Others criticized him because he was a funk singer

Funk is not a trend, it's a necessity
It's to silence the moans that exist in this city (no, no)
And everyone should pay attention to this story
Because there are many friends who go to the dance to forget the conflicts
Forget about the disputes, let the fights go
And understand the meaning when the DJ rocks

He was just another Silva whose star doesn't shine
He was a funk singer but he was a family man (it's us)
He was just another Silva whose star doesn't shine
He was a funk singer but he was a family man

Cheers! (Bang)
Nice to meet you, Buchecha!
Thanks for the opportunity to be part of this moment (we're together)
Telling this story (Emicida)
Straight from the north side (yeah)
E-M-I-C-I-D-A, the man

Our life, a messed-up picture
Lost bullets, found bodies
Through the avenue, a heavy air
They scream the wounds of our past (uuh)
Asphalt, trench, slum
Apart from without Mandela
Monstrous flow in the alleys
Misery, jail, racism, aftermath
Sea of resentment and grievance
Since my color is the bullseye
People see themselves as slaves
Dreaming of being safe
For the boys, it doesn't matter, they get used to it
We are worth less than the tip of a feather
Hands to help, how many times, none?
And even with awareness, if you had any
I had to disguise myself, got it
So the system wouldn't hack me, got it
I know it's so many hits, got it
Sad on the track, wounded
Just have faith, but the days hurt you
Ask the people about Amarildo
If Captain Nascimento is a hero (ãn)

He was just another Silva whose star doesn't shine
He was a funk singer but he was a family man
He was just another Silva whose star doesn't shine
He was a funk singer but he was a family man

He was a family man
He was a family man

He was just another Silva, another Ferreira
Another João, another Maria, yeah
Another street sweeper, another washer

Just another Silva
He was just another Silva

He was just another Silva whose star doesn't shine
He was a funk singer but he was a family man
He was just another Silva whose star doesn't shine
He was a funk singer, family man
