O Mal e o Bem
Racionais MC's
Evil and Good
One life, one story of victories in memory
Like the book the evil and the good
For your good, for my good
A thorn, a rose
A trail, a dangerous curve at over a hundred
For your good, for my good
Pow pow pow, now I am my destiny
I go without a helmet, without a plate, and without a rearview mirror
Who awaits me?
Who waits for me?
Don't despair me for the hills I've crossed
Outlaw, I know, I lost and won
I made mistakes and believed in a light I saw
KL Jay, DJ, Vila Mazzei
Jó introduced me in the mid-80s
Dancing break, the partnership closed, formed
Another duo from São Paulo ventured
Amidst the darkness, yeah, and the dew
We elaborate the cure, the formula with poison
And even today living with danger
Walking in factions, stealing wounded hearts
Against racism, against inequality
The machine, the factory that exports criminality
Several cities, alone, several partners
A shout out to the slums of São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro
By the pointer at 220 I am
Since '80 it's the spirit that led me
One life, one story of victories in memory
Like the book the evil and the good
For your good, for my good
A thorn, a rose, a trail
A dangerous curve at over a hundred
For your good, for my good
Blue sky
So go, in '90 the scene got violent
Brown and Blue with panic in the south zone
Choose your path, limited black
The active voice of a discriminated people
I remember well, the good and the evil you did to me
It's what keeps me well so I won't be caught again
The trap that triggers in the middle of the trail
A greeting, a hug, a shining eye
And it shoots, aiming at a criminal heart
Welcome to the jungle where everyone came out wounded
But we're here, ready for your general
digging the tunnel and heading to the central bank
I'm on the move towards the horizon
very Sinai, who will reach the mount
In adolescence my old man talked a lot
About life, about evil, about temptation
Closed, big guy, everything will always be remembered
He was my boss, my partner, he was my ally
Accelerated to a million, at 1100
A destiny, a breeze, the evil and the good
One life, one story of victories in memory
Like the book the evil and the good
For your good, for my good
A thorn, a rose, a trail
A dangerous curve at over a hundred
For your good, for my good
Blue sky
25 years later strong and firm
Alive and living
