Lancei uma Bm
MC Binho Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
hoje tem bailão nois vamos estrear
vagabundo treme e as bandida geme
quando o motor começa a roncar
De cap sem placa enquadro dos pm
habilita, ficha limpa documento em dia
no corre do trampo não deve não teme
E esse foguete me diz de onde veio
comprei com a minha renda, tava ate plastificada
seu timbre de receio trouxe devaneio
do sonho de pivete da canela riscada
só perda de tempo isso é k.o
não ta dando pra entender sua indignação
desculpa senhor mais sou trabalhador
desde os 12, mas não no 12 eu fui pra missão
De lupa na face, uma mina de classe, elimina impasse
corta o vento o cabo vai enrolar
fenix renasci, noticia repasse
favela venceu e tem que respeitar
In this song, MC Binho talks about his pride in owning a BM (Believe Me) - a type of car often associated with luxury and power. He expresses excitement about attending a "bailão" (a big party) where he plans to show off his new car. As the car's engine roars, he describes how it intimidates the "vagabundos" (thugs) and excites the "bandidas" (attractive women).
He then mentions the risks he takes by driving the car without license plates, attracting the attention of the police ("pm" refers to the military police). However, he states that he has a valid driver's license and all the necessary documents in order. Despite the potential trouble it may bring, he remains fearless and dedicated to his hustle, singing funk music, which is a popular genre in Brazil. The favela (slum area) is his home, and he proudly claims it as his own.
The next verse addresses the speculation about the origins of his car, with people wondering where it came from. Binho assures that he purchased it with his own income, even going as far as to mention that it was still covered in plastic when he bought it. The skepticism and doubt from others trigger his reminiscence of his childhood dreams, where he yearned for a car like this. He brushes off anyone who considers it a waste of time or an impossibility, asserting that this is his reality now.
Continuing with his confident tone, he talks about his exploits with women, describing an attractive lady with class who declassifies any doubts or disagreements. He creates a vivid image of the wind being cut by the cable as it rolls up, symbolizing his rise and success. Using the metaphor of the phoenix, he mentions his rebirth and implies that news of his achievements should be spread around the community, emphasizing that the favela has triumphed and demands respect.
Overall, Binho's lyrics in "Lancei uma Bm" reflect his pride in his car and his success, challenging anyone who doubts or questions him. He embraces his working-class background and asserts his perseverance and determination to succeed against all odds. The song also celebrates the triumph of the favela, asserting its relevance and power.
