Braço Fiel

How I wish there was a day
Of visitation in heaven
I would certainly visit you
To ease the longing, faithful arm!

I was remembering the times as a kid
Crushing glass
Melting glue and applying kite string
Favela without asphalt, comfort or internet
And surprisingly, it was cool

I also remembered that the back of the bus
Was our transportation from one hood to another
With two reais, we bought bologna and bread
We were one, like brothers for party or trouble

And the flashbacks that led me to you
Brought me a mix of sadness and joy
It's just that from then till now, I couldn't meet
Someone loyal who was on the same wavelength

Longing!

I'll laugh at my torpedo
In honor of the good one
Who left early, died in exchange
Alongside the loot on that mission
I'll laugh at my torpedo
In honor of the good one
Who left early, died in exchange
Alongside the loot on that mission

Another one who rushed
But wasn't worthy of pity
Another one who embraced crime
His old lady cried, and now she lives alone
