Elevação Mental

Family, first of all I wanted to make it clear
That I'm not here to represent female rap, right?
And much less the male
I'm here to represent National Rap
And I ask you to respect my gender identity, got it?
It went something like this

Pen and paper in hand
For me it's better than medicine
While I'm writing
There's no room for boredom

Where will I end up, I don't know
I've been thinking for over a month
And what I've seen
I'll tell you

There's so much arrogance, so much conceit
Sanity is scarce in the world of appearances
Never be silent in front of the oppressor
Don't let the system destroy your love

Hey, Triz, your sound is really cool
It's just that, brother, this is rap
Want to dance, listen to Ivete

Visionary poetry that reaches the heart
I do talk about sadness so there can be understanding
And as usual I keep touching the wound
Speaking of the prejudices suffered in everyday life

Rap exists to show
The truth and the pain
It's a scream from inside out
Calling for love

Hey, driver
Good night to you
I need to get to downtown
May I come in, please?

Go ahead, kid
But don't get too used to it
I'll let you know when I arrive
And be careful on these streets

We're together, brother, good luck on the journey
The fine has already been noted, so let's go
Always in humility you can get what you want
And I'm in this game until it's over

And since the flow is mine
I'll just give you the good stuff
This is my reality
Didn't like it, find another

I already have a lot of hassle
To worry about
Missing the company
In my living room

I like that lady
Her scent on my bed
Our bodies are the same
And together they burn in flames

But I'm not here
To belittle anyone
The world is full of people
You won't be short of them, brother

Let me tell you a situation
Several prejudiced without respect and without vision
There are many assholes, a lot of alienation
Fuck if the guy is gay, what matters is the heart

And I've already figured out how prejudice works
But I have to inform you that we're not on the sidelines
If you lack respect, you don't know anything
Follow your path while I go on my road

Where will this end?
If I was born with a gift, I know I'll continue
I arrived on the scene, made a poem
For your heart to listen

Prejudice doesn't lead you anywhere
Don't be another closed-minded jerk
Because hatred kills, but love heals
Which side will you choose?

Brazil, the country that kills the most trans people
I hope the statistics don't rise tomorrow
Tell me, why does someone's way bother you?
Fuck if it bothers you
It's my body, and my story

And about my flesh, you have no authority
Don't be another coward, with zero mentality
Be smart, open your mind
The world belongs to everyone, don't be arrogant

Be gay, be trans, black or oriental
The heart that beats in the chest is equal
The individual of each one is not up for discussion
Be elevated, seek altitude

The common folk said: Go get your eyebrows done
Give your hair a touch up and change your appearance
I think it's a woman, I think it's a man
I think you have to wear this uniform

First of all: you're not in my mind
Secondly: your reasoning is depressing
What do you think of me, doesn't matter, brother
Unlike you, I have manners

I'm not obligated to explain myself
But here, you know it's pure information
And for those who want to know, my gender is neutral
You don't need to understand, just need to respect

You gain nothing by being a hindrance
Your conservatism is already outdated
You wanted to bring me down still laughing
But the light of my struggle doesn't extinguish your bullet

You insulted me judging my appearance
You just forgot to see the shine of my essence
You talked about my hair, my gapped tooth
But I guarantee they don't complain about what they've tasted

Mental elevation
In this flow that I always carry with respect
Hypocrisy surrounds me and the haters admire
But I stand firm, nothing shakes my ideal, brother

And don't draw your conclusions without knowing my ways
Before speaking ill of me, I invite you to get to know me
A shout out to those who support, the kids are cool
In the midst of so much evil, there are still those who are saved

Where will this end?
If I was born with a gift, I know I'll continue
I arrived on the scene, made a poem
For your heart to listen

Prejudice doesn't lead you anywhere
Don't be another closed-minded jerk
Because hatred kills, only love heals
Which side will you choose?
