Afterparty depois desse baile, ele veio querendo sarrar em mim
Estilo e dinheiro combinam, né baby?
Chamei minha tropinha, eu vou pro baile
Sobe a favela atrás de mim
Flashes me cansam sou mais privê
Me diz se eu posso ter mais de você
Se tá é fofoqueiro, a mãe tá offline
Clima ensolarado e ele de Off-White
Se eles quer furdunço, eu tô querendo mais
Tem Barbie na pista, eu quero ver pegar
Uísque, champagne
Eu já te pedi pra não me acompanhar
Morango, Chandon
Acho que essa noite acaba em ménage
Trajado de Adidas, bigodinho finin' na régua, é vrau
Só não se apaixona que eu sou cria e quem namora é tchau
Brota da minha casa com a sua firma, nossa eu passo mal
Perfume do verde com o polo azul da Ralph Lauren
Ahn, é tanta grana na minha volta que parece um labirinto
Tanta substância corre no sangue
Que já tá mexendo com meu equilíbrio
Dessa forma ela balança essa bunda com jeito
Se quer tapa ela fala no ouvido
Sabe que flashes quando pega na minha corrente
Cê vê que o arco-íris já tava comigo, oh shit
Ahn, cê pode dar um Louis V check
Chama uma amiga pro back to back
Disse que alivia fácil o stress, ahn, ahn
Surfando num beat, acendo um beck
Fodendo a minha bitch I got the hack
Quer aula de flow? I got the class
Trajado de Adidas, bigodinho finin' na régua, é vrau
Só não se apaixona que eu sou cria e quem namora é tchau
Brota da minha casa com a sua firma, nossa eu passo mal
Perfume do verde com o polo azul da Ralph Lauren
Afterparty depois desse baile, ele veio querendo sarrar em mim
Estilo e dinheiro combinam, né baby?
Chamei minha tropinha, eu vou pro baile
O tamborzão parou
The song "After" by Ebony is a Brazilian funk hit that focuses on the experiences of a young woman at a party, likely in a favela. The opening line, "o tamborzão parou," translates to "the big drum stopped," which could signify a break in the music or a shift in the party's energy.
The song goes on to describe the singer's experience at the party, as she navigates the attention of a man who wants to dance with her. She notes that style and money go together, and that she has called her friends to join her at the party. She mentions that she's tired of the flashes of cameras and would rather be in a more private setting.
The chorus repeats her desire to leave the party and go somewhere more exclusive, while the second verse gives more detail about her experience. She notes that there's a lot of money around, and that it's starting to affect her equilibrium. However, she's still having a good time dancing and attracting attention from men.
Throughout the song, there are references to luxury brands like Louis Vuitton, Adidas, Polo Ralph Lauren, and Chandon champagne. The tone is flirty and confident, with the singer asserting that she's not looking for a serious relationship and is having fun.
The lyrics also touch on themes of substance use and sexual expression, with the singer mentioning smoking marijuana and alluding to the possibility of a threesome. Overall, the song conveys a sense of youthful energy and enjoyment at a party.
