Cantando Pro Santo

Singing for the Saint

I think that young people nowadays should read and inform themselves
See things as they are
To be able to contest things clearly
Not just rhymes in vain

Something in the air, a contradicted guy arrives
To complain about strong moments of sadness
Of a rising gas (Rising gas)
Strong partner, strong buddy, oh oh

Wind that inspires luck, warrior who solves
Helps, doesn't dismiss the pipe and runs
It's not crazy, it's like a Pixinguinha in the chords
Even suffering reaches the waters of sweet stream

Wherever you are and will be, you will be protected
Those who have been well said to us were also boys
I feel motivated by priorities
In the city pressured by needs
Only evil to invade coban and homes

Anybody who knows
To buy a Cadillac later
The type without fuss, just a good image
A descendant of the palm trees, it's you know
For the guys on the other side of the wall, that salute!
For those who know, on the next visit to freedom

Peace will reach in the South the love of the father
I will follow strong, I will be able, always more
The creator will make you a good boy
As time passes and I see, many in the poison
It's always like this in the South, good thief goes away early
For the permanence of the prison system

It's the decadence, the fraud in the law of the weakest
Existing, in the mind of those who walk wrong
Lack of jobs, for those who have taken it hard
Onilê, Father Ogum, Ai ei eô, Mother Oxum
Son of Zambi, tired of seeing blood here in the South
Odara, Odara to the black people, be obsolete

Maybe faster do everything in secret
Freedom comes first, my clone, my mirror
Restless, jobless, in the hustle, that way
I ask the cowboy to listen to my plea
People are growing, be attentive Odin, order the wind
In the sea a boat to row must have an oar
Independent not only of me, but also yes

Several blacks
The kids make rap their mirror
They are Cosme Damião, give them protection
At the exit of Campão, at the final of Coringão
At the Centrão's march, peace for the people
Ozazie, Sheiks in Bahia Baiano
Be a shield for this guy who is in tears
Who by mistake, fought with someone
Today is your day, before the law of man the pipe
Oh Lord who turns the world, I ask love for the suburb
There is a supreme force, a problem for science
There in Canão only God gives me certainty
Of uncertainties, clarities that your children do
Forgive us father, they are not capable of living in peace
In an irrational way, ambitious

They remember Jesus to go to the podium
And in their eyes I see a diabolic hatred
The figure of the Lord is always in lepers' skin
He who was born, however, in Jerusalem
Was betrayed, because he wanted the good of the enemy
Without nightmare, in peace or in full
It took a while, here I am with a restless mind, quick
Give me at least time to pray
Ask Oxalá to prepare me for fame
Head banging in Congar just in the morning
I'll take a bath of Abô, in the herbs of aruanda
Who doesn't know, finally I know give fame
But nothing against
Several demands settled in umbanda
Zé, in whom I carry faith since childhood
Child God my shepherd, console our pain
Wars, family intrigues are a horror

Our Lady look after everyone, Jesus does for the people
The Earth, the water, the sea and the air and nature I post
Santa Clara cleared, now here I am
With a raised mind I'm going, I'm going to Christ the Redeemer
Thank the Lord without money and with love
Fought and conquered, forgave the guilty
Who crucified tried to prove he didn't err got scared
Seeing that Child God then resurrected

I want Axé, from Brooklyn to Canão
I see the brothers and go in faith, that's how it is
I want Axé, from Brooklyn to Canão
I see the brothers and go in faith, that's how it is

Something in the air, a contradicted guy arrives
To complain about strong moments of sadness
Of a rising gas (Of a rising gas)
Strong partner, strong buddy, oh oh

Something in the air, a contradicted guy arrives
To complain about strong moments of sadness
Of a rising gas (Of a rising gas)
Strong partner, strong buddy, oh oh

A firm guy always speaks clearly
Is against the royalty that flaunts this poverty
Freedom is worth more and the good it does
Freedom is everything, freedom is much more
Top in the Impala, on a sunny Sunday
Skateboarding or playing soccer
The united race will never be defeated
The united race is what catches, what connects
Pay attention, tell me, if life here doesn't deserve a chance
Out of the nightmare, smart in the move
Life lived in a simple way is better for me

Life lived in a simple way is better for me
There is an apparent possibility of changing things
Definitely they won't leave me behind
No more, no more, no more
The full state of wisdom is the highest gift
Renewing and transforming, changing the whole picture
I'm connected, Chorão and Charlie Brown, Sabotage side by side
Family RZO, then I know
Renewal brings me the breeze, every measure
United one day then, we will be the justice (We the justice)
This one I did for you brothers
This one I did for you thief
This one I did for you brothers
This one I did for you thief
