On the hot asphalt, the dust rose
I was humiliated by those who never saw me
Simple and honest, with nothing in hand
But my faith was my vessel
They laughed at the boots, they laughed at the accent
But my chest is attack-proof
The world spun, the game changed
And the seed I planted finally sprouted!
Oh, feel the heat, the fire in the soul
Taking back the crown, I'm taking control
From the red clay streets to the neon lights
We're reaching for the Sun through the darkest night
With a heart of gold and a mind so clear
We conquered every doubt, we killed every fear
Yeah, we killed every fear
Salvador! Bahia!
This is Brazil!
This is Brazil!
Whoever beats their chest
Doesn't leave their place!
This is Brazil!
When the voice rises
No one will silence it!
The beginning, drawn in the dust and rain
A masterclass on the back of pain
They became a shadow, I saw the Sun
And humiliations later, I've only just begun
Cleaned the mud, polished the dream
Now I am the light in the middle of the flow
Faith isn't static, it's something alive
Listen to the anthem the survivor sings!
Oh, feel the heat, the fire in the soul
Taking back the crown, I'm taking control
From the red clay streets to the neon lights
We're reaching for the Sun through the darkest night
With a heart of gold and a mind so clear
We conquered every doubt, we killed every fear
Yeah, we killed every fear!
Thanks, Cláudio Fontenelle
Salvador! Bahia!
This is Brazil!
This is Brazil!
And it beats in the heart
It stands its ground!
This is Brazil!
This is Brazil!
When the voice rises
No one will silence it!
Faith in the heart, always!
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
