Stab

I introduce myself loud and clear so everyone can hear
Sharp and tough guy, straight from Andaraí
I go from M to A, to R, to C
To E, to L, to O, space, D2
Always representing hip hop
No Faustão, no Gugu, I'm the first in the ratings
Revolution, I'll do it differently
Take the hate out of the heart and try to use the mind
They put barriers in the way, but I'm persistent
I may fall, but I get up and move on
I handle the situation, keep calm
If I slip up, a motherfucker steals my soul
Fernando comes in and Fernando goes out, and the people pay
Because of the lack of culture, they vote for him again
And pay dearly, with body and soul
And hand it over to a pastor to see if he saves
With empty stomachs, they can't think
I ask for protection from God and Oxalá
From the infantry that I am and I'm on the front line
Rio de Janeiro, end of the century, things are hot!

Many brothers gather and move forward
Many also enslave their minds
I know well, I break the chain wherever I go
And plant my seed
Locusts never take from those who have
Predators, lords who lie
Wait seated for surrender
Our victory will not be by accident

Coming back rhyming to the beat, buddy, it's only for those who can
Protected body, fiery rhyme, buddy, no one screws me
The bass drum hits hard, only the lucky escape
I mix hip hop and samba with blood from the North Zone
As impressive as the b-boy spinning
I don't let them burn my movie, I'm always valuing myself
Revolution? Those who know do it on the spot and stay tuned
Not everything that glitters is gold or televised

I'm just passing through, but I didn't come for a stroll
From cycle to cycle, I travel my path without fear
My speech is full, hits the mark
And I believe our final destination is to be at peace in the universe's bosom
Field of vision open
I preserve my serenity with verses
I talk to my grandchildren, like the old black man I am
I know where I come from and where I'm going
For real!
With paper and pen, I provide you with the material for the making of your spiritual release permit
Don't stop your prayers!
Negative thoughts are like feces: they infest every place
Looking for someone to consider them, to value them
So delete information of this kind from your deck
And rise up, to the hypnotic sound of the stab!

I live life and I'm not led by it
In the fight, a good warrior never backs down
For me to grow, don't let me go crazy
Only you know what's best for you
I stand tall and move forward in the game
I'm not controlled and I sleep with a clear conscience
I follow my path, calm and alone
I kill the snake and still kick the nest

Many brothers gather and move forward
Many also enslave their minds
I know well, I break the chain wherever I go
And plant my seed
Locusts never take from those who have
Predators, lords who lie
Wait seated for surrender
Our victory will not be by accident

I represent who I am, who I hang out with, where I go
I trace my path well, Hip Hop Rio!
I represent who I am, who I hang out with, where I go
I trace my path well, Hip Hop Rio!
