O Menino Cresceu

Território Território

The Boy Grew Up

Party, luxury, party
Only the powerful, the rich and famous
Dance at our party
Only the mayors, only the elected ones
Those who govern everything
Only rich, famous, and beautiful people
Those who have more than enough and give nothing to anyone
Those with hard hearts, the stingy dance at our party

Just rewind this movie a little
I want to show you a scene that passed by unnoticed
Very important to us
But insignificant to many rulers of Brazil
A boy sitting with cold and hunger
Alone, alone
Rejected by life, without a plate of food
Left to his own fate
Without relatives, without friends, no kind of encouragement
A living dead waiting for death
But the boy survived
Grew up and stronger every day
And now he is well armed with thick calibers
And plenty of ammunition, hatred shines in his eyes
Who would have thought that one day you would remember
That one day you would fear
Who would have thought that one day you would meet this boy
Pointing a gun at you, without fear, without mercy, without pain
Alone, alone
The worst happened, the monster grew up
Devours those who smiled
And looked with disdain at the misery of Brazil
A content people who used to live smiling
And now don't leave the house
Living locked up at home
The whole country lives in fear of its own children
I want to see movement, I want to see destruction
I want to see you going down to the ground
When violence comes, and there's nowhere to run
Gunfire rolls, and the bullet comes towards you
The monster grew up, devours those who smiled
And looked with disdain at the misery of Brazil
A content people who used to live smiling
And now don't leave the house, live locked up at home
The whole country lives in fear of its own children
While the rich went out to party
They traveled contentedly around the world without thinking about anything
While the big magnates doubled their empires
Making life much more expensive
While our deputies only thought about themselves
The worst happened
The monster grew up, devours those who smiled
And looked with disdain at the misery of Brazil
A content people who used to live smiling
And now don't leave the house, live locked up at home
The whole country lives in fear of its own children.
