Favela (feat. MC IG, MC Cebezinho, MC Kadu, MC Paiva e MC Neguinho do Kaxeta)

[MC Ryan SP]
I'll be brief with light rhymes
Like the kites that decorate the sky
And the kids are running happily
I hit the thesis
And life is sharp in hand
Ready to cut you

A young boy passed by me playing a goat
Very young, maybe not even 15
At the corner bar there's a pagode playing
People enjoy it strongly in case there's no rerun

Climbing the hill
I bumped into an old man with a Bible in hand
Peace of the Lord, brother
I broke the alley and saw a scene that tore my heart
Friends on call

Here everyone is running for what they believe in
Some with precision and others who rush
For the money, the young ones lose their lives
Some in emotion and others fight for food

But God
I believe the star will still shine for mine
Oh, God
I believe the star will still shine for mine

[MC IG]
In the middle of the bush, supposedly kidnapped
In the hands of cowards, without even a joint
He's already gone crazy and we sign the disrespect
With golden ropes, let them be scared

But when necessity knocked on my door
And the window to the little guy was the funk
The shine comes from the cradle
And in the hood, money doesn't buy us
We buy the diamonds

Play the ball, player, my brother said
A scoundrel and a good singer if you have the disposition
Gordinho called me and IG gives the vision

Favela, oh, favela
Bring the funk, light the candle
I ask for peace and less oppression in the alleys and lanes

Favela, oh, favela
Bring the funk, light the candle
I ask for peace and less oppression

[MC Cebezinho]
The hood already comes from the ghetto programmed to die
With blood in their eyes, full of desire to win
Everyday is a struggle, a lot of hard work
Enter the alley, the young boy is at ease

But we send the march, kid doesn't stop
Regardless if life's burdens are heavy
It's dawn, I'll gather my crew early
The early bird catches the worm

Oh, sir, I know I'll
I'll do my share, take advantage of the sunrise
Oh, sir, I know I'll
Therefore, don't think, don't imagine we stopped

Oh, sir, I know I'll
I'll do my share, take advantage of the sunrise
Oh, sir, I know I'll
Therefore, don't think, don't imagine we stopped

[MC Kadu]
Ally
I thought about coming by, give you a shoutout
Or to give you a hug
Ask how you're doing, my ally

The hustle is strong, without relying on luck
Which is scarce nowadays
So, tell me, ally

It seems like it was yesterday
We full of bullets in our arms
Full of hatred towards the men
We debating with the system, afraid of hunger
Deteriorating in this concrete jungle of men

If you stay, the beast will get you, if you run, it will catch you
And don't even come, if you don't call me and my name isn't Johnny
But if you stay, the beast will get you, if you run, it will catch you
And don't even come, if you don't call me and my name isn't Johnny

Stop to see
Stop to learn
Stop to know
Do what needs to be done
Wrong is to think you'll only win
Wrong is to think you'll only win

Oh, stop to see
Stop to learn
Stop to know
Do what needs to be done
Wrong is to think you'll only win
Wrong is to think you'll only win

[MC Paiva]
Unleash all the evil plotting against me
Spread peace, forget the war because it has no end
And I know that good and evil are ancient, like Latin
Envy kills, that's clear, the proof is Abel and Cain

But, calm down, our story has a happy ending
Equalizes all races and unites all countries
I know what's mine by right, direct and straight
No matter, I want change and not scars on my skin

Men in uniform don't intimidate us
Favela is like Al-Qaeda, several young terrorists
Fearless, no time to lose, karma exists, it's clear
Don't want to pay to see

If there are so many things in this life
Why isn't there a cure for hunger in the world?
But I entrust it in Your hands, Lord
Free me from this evil
I know You own everything

[MC Neguinho do Kaxeta]
And the microphone in the right hands makes millions
And the ink from the pen never runs out
But I see some lacking perception
That before thinking about the notes, comes the heart

Some passages of my life brought life changes
Written on a simple sheet of paper
Maybe for singing truths daily lived
Gunshots now bring the taste of bile

Oh, Father, protect me from the cowards
Who tarnish the flag spreading evil
Emotionally bring falsehoods
My verses are a blow to these disloyal

Criticize our funk culture aiming for hype
Oh, what a pain, it's a fact that you're wearing a cap
We've always been sweat and blood, versing reality
Then came a certain Lord and, well, talks crap
