Saudade

Oh, faith
Hair in the voice

Faith, faith

I saw (I saw)
Our photo on the shelf
I saw you leave (you leave)
Only I know of my suffering
Before going to sleep (before going to sleep)

Remembering the friends
Who are no longer here today
No longer here
I went out (I went out)
To take a stroll in the hill, I lit one up
I stopped to reflect (I stopped to reflect)
And I asked God why life is like this (is like this)
Unfortunately, one day everything passes
Everything has an end (everything has an end), has an end

On earth, what you plant, you reap (you reap)
Brother, you choose your path (you choose)
Think very well so you don't regret
(You don't regret)
Many times there's no turning back

In war, you kill or you die (you die)
Why did you go for that Glock? (Glock)
Just imagining that I won't see you anymore
I even told you not to get involved, brother
I even told you not to get involved, no
Oh, my God, help me (help me)

I try to get you out of my mind
But I can't avoid it (but I can't avoid it)
In my mind, seeing some moments
I cry just remembering (I cry just remembering)
Longing for the friends who have gone
Who will never come back
And I am, and I am

I'm full of hatred, I swear, the favela in mourning (the favela in mourning)
Curfew, they ordered everything to close (to close)
It's already missing for the community (community)
Can't believe this was real (no, no)
I know you were that pure kid (that pure kid)
In my heart, I kept our stories together (our stories together)
You used to hang out in the alley until late
After flying kites on the rooftop
Your mother used to say, she was worried
Son, be careful where you go
True friendship is lacking today
It gives me goosebumps, we feel it in the soul (uh, yeah)
Innocence is only in children
Faith in God and we're together for anything
Faith-faith (uh, yeah-yeah)

It's tough, you know?
Only those who have lost a friend who was in a life of crime will identify
Unfortunately, this is my reality
It's the reality of many who live in the favela
And I just wish people would stop judging others
Without putting themselves in the shoes of others, you know?
May God enlighten all the favelas in Brazil
And those who have passed away: Rest in peace, you know?
Those who have passed away: Rest in peace
(Faith in God)
