Aika Cortez Lyrics

Bala no inimigo, quem é o inimigo abstrato farsante
We’re shooting at the enemy, who is an abstract, deceptive figure. He wears suits and sells weapons to the drug dealers in slums. The bullets hit the cheap, enslaved meat of the people that we now resist against, and our resistance takes them by surprise.

Tamo tirando onda não o poder é de Tsunami
We’re not messing around; our power is like a tsunami. We’ve gained strength and blessings from our ancestors and turned a small force into a mighty one. The enemy tried to bury us, but our strength was too much for them to handle.

Odoya abençoa, transformou a pequena em gigante
The god Odoya blessed us and turned our small group into a giant one. We’re now powerful and ready to fight for our rights.

Eles querem nos enterrar mas a surpresa veio de repente
The enemy wanted to bury us, but they were surprised by our sudden strength and resilience.

Com a força dos meus ancestrais, todos os filhos frutos da semente
We’re children of our ancestors, and their strength flows in us. We’re all born from the same seed, and that seed has given us the power to resist.

Filha de Ogum com Iansã né, to pronta pra guerrear
I’m the daughter of the gods Ogum and Iansã, and I’m ready to fight.

Exú abrindo caminhos, espaços a conquistar
The god Exú is paving the way for us to conquer new spaces and territories.

Filhas de reis e rainhas, a pele brilha no sol
We’re descendants of kings and queens, and our skin shines in the sun.

Preto combina com ouro, traz o balde de skol
Black goes well with gold, so we’re bringing a bucket of Skol beer to celebrate.

Corre o ere trazendo alegria, transforma os becos da periferia
Our joy is spreading as we run through the alleys of the outskirts, transforming them into vibrant communities.

Espalha a musica, a moda e as rimas, corte na régua parado na esquina
We’re spreading music, fashion, and rhymes wherever we go, making a bold statement and drawing attention on the streets.

Com o dreadlock que veio lá de cima, pararam na casa do beco da tia
We wear our dreadlocks with pride, and they symbolize our roots that go back to our ancestors. We stopped by our aunt's house in the alley.

Pediram a benção no meio da gira, fé e liberdade partiram pra pista
We asked for blessings from the spirits in a spiritual circle and then headed for the streets with faith and freedom.

Tenha, te tenha, te te te tenha, te tenha te te te tenha, te tenha, te te te tenha fé, tenha fé
Have faith, take it, take it, take it. Believe in yourself, and always have faith.
