Jesus Chorou

Guess what?

Clear and salty
Fits in an eye and weights a ton
It tastes like sea
It can be discrete
Tenant of pain
Favorite dwelling
It comes in the silence of the night
Hostage of vengeance
Sister of despair
Rival of hope
It might be caused by vermin and mundanes
And the thorn of the

Cruel flower that you love
Lover of drama
Comes to my bed
Meaning it, without asking, made me suffer
And I who judged myself so strong
And I who though I was the deal
I’ll be a weak man when others of these come
If this is all crazy and the process is slow
For now
Let me walk against the wind

What good is it if I'm tough but my heart is vulnerable?
Not the wind, it is smooth, but also cold and relentless
(True that) smudged the poets sad words
(Yeah) rolled down the prophet’s brown face
Vermin, get out of the way
The tear of a man is about to fall
This is your burden for eternity
They say men don’t cry
Yeah, right
Don’t go by the others, bro
Jesus cried

Damn, look, tramp
I'm telling you, I'm getting high
What a good world to end
What to do when the fortress trembled
And almost everything
That was best around you has been corrupted
Hey, hold on, take it slowly, thug
Where’s the immortal spirit from Capão?
Wash your face in the sacred water of the sink
There’s nothing like a day after another day
What, it’s me, your right side
If your shook up, why did you come?

Nigga, it’s just like that!
I don’t sleep well, I dream almost all night long
I wake up tense, dizzy and with dark circles
In my mind, feelings of sorrow and grudge
Something shook me up last night
(Hello!)
(Yo, sleeping too much eh dude, a thousand things happening and you’re there)
(What time is it?)
(It’s twenty past noon, look)
The thing is, look
I'm not kidding you
It’s about something hot

Yesterday I was hanging out riding my Honda CB
With this very cool dude
You have to meet him
Maybe you know him, who knows
He even rapped in a recent past
Yeah
Just hear this
You won’t believe it
When it should be, it is, bro (hm) just pay attention
Look at this: I stopped there to smoke a joint as medicine
With some boys there and such, dealers in the buildings
One that got there late, asked for a couple off pulls

A rich guy out of everyone, look, young and shit
Smoke goes, smoke comes, he got wasted
Opened up like a flower, got high
I was there with two other bros and a girl
In a silver-beautiful-tinted-window Tempra, likening to Guina
Oh, he got sloppy, talked a lot about you
Like what?
This “Brown” dude, all thinking he’s so good
Let him slip and sing in the hood
Let’s see if he’s all that good when he sees the gun
Slums my ass, he only thinks about himself
Full of money and you guys there envying it

And his face, bro?
Each person with its own business
Anything for the greens, some kill, some die
Even myself if I get a chance
I’ll shine on the other side quickly
I will buy a rich’s house and then I’ll rent it
They will call me sir, not by nickname
But only the South Zone is good for him
They say he’ll get us out, we should charge it
He thinks we want whatever he wants, come and get me
‘Cause I don’t suck up to nobody
What about me? I just listened, I wasn’t from there

The guys heard it all, nobody said an “A”
The one who has mouth speaks whatever comes to mind just to build a name
To get attention of woman and/or men
I love my race, I fight for the color
Whatever I do is for us, for love
Some don’t understand who I am, don’t understand what I do
Don’t understand the pain and the tears of the clown
The world is on the verge of decomposition
It transforms a brother of mine in a wretched vermin
And my mom says

Paulo, wake up, think about your future because this is an illusion
The black people themselves don’t care about this
Look at how much I have suffered, what I am and what I was
Envy kills, there are too many bad people

Mom, don’t talk like that, otherwise I can’t even sleep
My love for you doesn’t fit in Saturn already
Money is good, I do want it, if that’s the question
But Mrs. Ana made me a man not a hooker
Hey, you, whoever you are, I didn’t come to be a seed

So don’t try to terrorize me
Invisible enemy, colorless Judas
I was already born chased, alright
For only 30 coins the brother was corrupted
Shoot the first stone whoever has anything about me
Where’s my smile? Where is it? Yeah, who stole it?
Humankind is evil, and even Jesus cried
Tears
Tears
Tears
Jesus cried

Red and blue, hotel, only lights blinking in
The dark gray of the skies
Rain falls outside and increases the rythm
Alone I am know my own intimate enemy
Bad memories come, good thoughts go away
Help me, I think about too much shit when I'm alone
People that I believe, like and admire
Fought for justice and peace but got shot
Malcom X, Ghandi, Lennon, Marvin Gaye
Sabotagem, 2Pac, Bob Marley
And the Christian Martin Luther King
I remembered of a friend of mine saying that
Don’t throw pearls to the pigs, bro

Throw them pigwash, they prefer it like this
You have to take advantage
Christ who has died for millions
But walked with only 12 and one of them failed on his mission
Slums: Empty bodies without ethics
Fill the parties heading to the electric chair
I know, you know what frustration is
It’s a villain-making machine
I think a thousand things, I’ll loose my mind
And when the jerk sees me, he says
Famous as shit, tough, yeah, brother
Don’t make up your own world, dude, life is short
Only supermodels around hitting on you

Tell them to suck it and walk away right after
Going throughout the night in your fancy motorcycle
If it’s me, dude, there would be nothing left
Unworthy people are the devil, they have this defects
What? Having it or not, they envy your stuff either way
If you cross the path with, you break him
Suddenly go with a. 40, you just have to want it, it’s already in the mag
If only thinking about killing he already kill
I prefer to hear the preacher
My son, have no envy of the violent man
Or take any of his ways
Tears wet the medal of a winner
Cry now, laugh later, bro, Jesus cried

Jesus cried
Jesus cried
Jesus cried
Humankind is evil and even Jesus cried
