O Mundo Gira

Mc Orelha's song 'O Mundo Gira' delves into the gritty and unforgiving realities of life in the streets. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of the constant vigilance and discipline required to survive in a world where one wrong move can be fatal. The opening lines emphasize the high stakes, where any mistake can lead to dire consequences. The phrase 'cada um sabe o risco que corre' (everyone knows the risk they take) sets the tone for a narrative steeped in the harsh truths of street life.

The song underscores the importance of discipline and loyalty, as highlighted in the lines 'tem que ter disciplina e levar o papo sempre no blindão' (you have to have discipline and always keep the conversation strong). This reflects a code of conduct that governs the lives of those in this environment, where brotherhood and mutual defense are paramount. The lyrics 'a mente que faz o crime e não o crime faz sua mente' (the mind makes the crime, not the crime makes your mind) suggest a philosophical take on the nature of criminal behavior, implying that one's mindset and choices are crucial in navigating this perilous world.

The recurring warning 'vacila não, vacila não que é foda' (don't slip up, don't slip up because it's tough) serves as a stark reminder of the consequences of carelessness. The world keeps turning, and those who falter are left behind, often paying with their lives. The song's chorus reinforces this message, illustrating the relentless and unforgiving nature of the environment Mc Orelha describes. 'O Mundo Gira' is a raw and unfiltered look at survival, discipline, and the brutal reality of life on the streets, where only the vigilant and disciplined can hope to endure.
