Eu Me Chamo Antônio

I was born in the bar
And in the soul of my creator
Trapped in this blank napkin
I became free to pour out what I am

I draw such simple words
Complicated enough is what has passed
I also speak of courage and resentment
It's so useless to only talk about love

My name is Antônio
I drink to forget my poems
And also remember a great love
I seek your kisses shouting in the alleys
I wait for your mistakes for as long as it takes

My name is Antônio
My name is Antônio
My name is Antônio
My name is Antônio

I have nothing to fear
I have broken my shyness
I broke my silence
I found firmament
In the dream of the one who only made me lose

My name is Antônio
And I don't ask myself questions
I dissolve in the shadows
Of a pencil without lead
I point my direction
And from there I get ready
And I don't trace destiny
It's the one who brings

Longing felt, love is a crime
Time the relief, pain the conflict
The full the empty, the end the beginning
In the verse I exist.

I drink to forget my poems
And also remember a great love
I seek your kisses shouting in the alleys
I wait for your mistakes for as long as it takes
