Mais Amor

Promises that I made and don't remember
The wind took several tapes in time
Today I feel stronger than ever

Many want to tell you how to act
What to do, what to eat, what to wear
And even if you obey
The same comes to judge you

I don't make sad music
Where I come from, I saw too much sadness
There joy is a piece
That in the slum costs five reais

Families crumbling because of the white powder
Loves turning into hatred because of the curse of oil
The feeling of always living on adrenaline
The addicts have become a good deal

And talking about standards
The fucking industry and all its bosses
Go fuck yourselves, sellers of illusions
Throwing crumbs to all nations

Just don't corner me
Like Gil, you don't know my last name
You give bread to those who are thirsty
And throw water to those who are hungry

More love, please
More love, please, in this shit
Respect those who could reach where we got
With the pen and the paper

More love, please
More love, because that's the message
Respect those who could reach where we got
Using willpower, creativity

Yeah, once again
Gathered again
Just to prove that unity strengthened
Funk still moves forward

Fill your chest with courage
And go out to kill a lion a day
And if you can, be thankful that the lions are all instinct
The system is set up so that on your path you only find traps
Escape from this maze

The nation is divided between right-handed and left-handed
I'm just another Silva who's gonna shine in this shit
Since having a cool car is necessary for them
But if mine is the same as theirs, I want to show off

And who will judge us
And who will punish us
Since the police are more criminal than the robbers?
You can belittle, you can diminish
And hatch all your dreams on the same shelf

More love, please
More love, please, in this shit
Respect those who could reach where we got
With the pen and the paper

More love, please
More love, that's the message
Respect those who could reach where we got
Using willpower, creativity
