Fiery Love

Amor Incendiário

Oh, I just left the Largo da BatataÔ, acabei de sair aqui do Largo da Batata
The cops are cracking down hardOs coxa tão reprimindo fortemente
And I don’t recommend you come around hereE eu não recomendo que cê venha pra cá
And I need to tell you something, check it outE eu preciso te contar um negócio, se liga ó

When I found myselfQuando eu me deparei
I was close byEu tava perto assim
Running from Molotovs, riot squad behind meCorrendo de Molotov, tropa de choque atrás de mim
When I spotted youQuando eu te avistei
Showing off your graceManifestando sua graça
Throwing rocks at the bankJogando pedra no banco
Screaming in anguish, shattering glassGrito de pranto, estoura vidraça

You on the roadVocê na estrada
And I doubted the paths of this early morningE eu duvidando dos caminhos dessa madrugada
I got lost on the bus, the fare was steepEu me perdi de bonde, a passagem tava cara
From Osasco to JabaquaraDe Osasco a Jabaquara
Just to see your faceSó pra ver sua cara

And I was ragingE eu revoltava
Walking the paths that life laid outCaminhando os caminhos que a vida relatava
I poured all my energy into the performance, feel the weight and move onJogava no Jogral toda energia que me basta, sente o peso e passa
Feel the weight and move onSente o peso e passa

And if I told you how I carved my pathE se eu te contasse como eu traçasse o meu caminho
Looking at the needs, I dodge the atrocitiesOlhando as necessidade, eu fujo das atrocidade
The world is a grindstoneO mundo é um moinho

And if I noticed, the way, the disguise that they walk aloneE se eu reparasse, o jeito, disfarce que andam sozinho
I catch on quick, but forget it, it’ll give me a headachePercebo logo, mas esqueça, vai me dar dor de cabeça
A hell of a hangoverUm porre de vinho

Got my hair slicked to the sideBota o cabelinho de lado
With my kicks on my feetBombeta já com pisante no pé
It’s Friday, I’m feeling itÉ sexta-feira, eu tô bolado
In my lowered Chevette, listening to Duda MarapéDe Chevette rebaixado, ouvindo Duda Marapé

Hair slicked to the sideO cabelinho de lado
Flying high, crazy for Nhocuné, an-anDe rasante louco pela Nhocuné, an-an
It’s Friday, I’m feeling itÉ sexta-feira, eu tô bolado
In my lowered Chevette, listening to Duda MarapéDe Chevette rebaixado ouvindo Duda Marapé

On the way, I was stuckNo caminho eu travava
Recycling time because time was killing meReciclava o tempo porque o tempo me matava
I was in January but September was on a WednesdayEu tava em Janeiro mas Setembro era na quarta
Time doesn’t stop, life holds me backO tempo não para, a vida me trava

And I was reportingE eu relatava
On the CPTM tracks, pen was flowingNos trilhos da CPTM, caneta dichava
Searching in the cubicles for poetry on pauseBuscava nos cubículos poesia parada
That time erases, that time erasesQue o tempo apaga, que o tempo apaga

Bo-lo-lo-lo-lô, lo-lo-lô, we don’t failBo-lo-lo-lo-lô, lo-lo-lô, nóis num falha
We’re satisfied to win this battleNós ficamos satisfeito de vencer essa batalha
With necessary rhymes, immediate actionDe rima necessária, ação imediata
I recall the concepts that Sabota taught meRelembro os conceito que Sabota me passava

Bo-lo-lo-lo-lô, lo-lo-lô, we don’t failBo-lo-lo-lo-lô, lo-lo-lô, nóis num falha
I escaped the common sense to highlight this stuffFugi do senso comum pra destacar essas parada
With necessary rhymes, immediate actionDe rima necessária, ação imediata
Poetic guerrilla, the crew is readyPoética guerrilha, facção tá preparada

When I found myselfQuando eu me deparei
I was close byEu tava perto assim
Running from Molotovs, riot squad behind meCorrendo de Molotov, tropa de choque atrás de mim
When I spotted youQuando eu te avistei
Showing off your graceManifestando sua graça
Throwing rocks at the bankJogando pedra no banco
Screaming in anguish, shattering glassGrito de pranto, estoura vidraça

Oh, Ash, don’t come over here, manÔ, Ash, não cola pra cá não, mano
These guys blew everything up, manEsses caras explodiram tudo, mano
The repression is strongA repressão tá forte
It’s tough to resist, dudeTá foda resistir, maluco
