Preto metido

Preto metido
tô dando fuga dos meus inimigo
Quem duvidou hoje quer te comigo
Assino em baixo medo do perigo
Mentir pra mim mesmo era próprio perigo
Ela mentindo a cor da sua calcinha
Pra ver se no baile ela cola comigo
Lembro meus manos parados na esquina

Drogas que vem pelos marés
Assinado direto de Cáli
Pego esse voo que da primeira classe
Tempo difícil passei foi uma fase
São vira lata não morde só late
Sua bitch e cachorro ela late
Ou ela que lute pra depois do baile
Pra ver se ela me encontra mais tarde

Dom Perrier no meu copo
Pela calcinha vi ela chora
Eu fiquei rico tão novo
Vários sufoco tive que passa
Carta escrevendo meu sonho
Mais percebi que só ando acordado
Se pra fica rico eu vou morre tentando
sendo inimigo do meu estado

Hoje eu passo de grife
Tô aprendendo a ser melhor que ontem
Olha todos seus detalhe
Ela é bandida fala que me ama
Brota na base mais tarde
Só vuco vuco
Nessa safadona
Dentro de um civic prata
Ela primeira entra na minha van né

Hoje eu passo de grife
Tô aprendendo a ser melhor que ontem
Olha todos seus detalhe
Ela é bandida fala que me ama
Brota na base mais tarde
Só vuco vuco
Nessa safadona
Dentro de um civic prata
Ela primeira fala que me ama

Preto metido
tô dando fuga dos meus inimigo
Quem duvidou hoje quer te comigo
Assino em baixo medo do perigo
Mentir pra mim mesmo era próprio perigo
Ela mentindo a cor da sua calcinha
Pra ver se no baile ela cola comigo
Lembro meus manos parados na esquina

Preto metido
tô dando fuga dos meus inimigo
Quem duvidou hoje quer te comigo
Assino em baixo medo do perigo
Mentir pra mim mesmo era próprio perigo
Ela mentindo a cor da sua calcinha
Pra ver se no baile ela cola comigo
Lembro meus manos parados na esquina
Vendo droga Cáli

Overall Meaning

In "Preto Metido," SHOY dives into the complexities of life in a turbulent environment, where danger lurks in every corner, and the struggle for success heavily colors his experiences. The term "preto metido" translates to "involved black," and it establishes a strong sense of identity for the artist, suggesting a dual meaning of navigating systemic oppression while simultaneously asserting a sense of pride. The opening lines express his need to evade enemies while reflecting on the fickle nature of loyalty, where those who once doubted him now seek his companionship. It underscores a deep-seated fear of betrayal, but also a recognition that appearances can be deceiving, as he contemplates the persona of a woman whose intentions are muddled by superficiality.


The lyrics shift to portray a vivid yet unsettling picture of urban life, punctuated by references to drugs and street culture. With lines about "drugs that come from the tides, signed directly from Cali," SHOY hints at the complexities surrounding the narcotics trade and its impact on his upbringing and environment. As he reflects on his difficult past, he relates personal growth to overcoming these challenges. The lines are infused with a sense of resilience and determination; despite facing adversities, he embraces his ambitions and dreams of a better life. Moreover, he addresses betrayal with a metaphor that signifies how some people pretend to be allies but are only in it for their own gain, reminding him of the harsh realities of street life.


As the song progresses, SHOY contrasts his past struggles with his current success, illuminating the journey from hardship to newfound wealth. The mention of "Dom Perrier" evokes imagery of celebration, but that joy is marred by the visceral understanding of the pain and suffering he encountered along the way. There are elements of reflection and nostalgia as he recalls writing letters about his dreams, now realizing that being awake does not guarantee clarity, and he often finds himself in a state of persistent yearning. He is acutely aware that the pursuit of riches could lead to his destruction, standing in opposition to a system he feels antagonistic towards—hence, he identifies himself as an enemy of the state.


The repetition of themes throughout the song creates a cyclical narrative that emphasizes the relentless quest for self-improvement and survival in a world with unsteady foundations. The phrase “tô aprendendo a ser melhor que ontem” highlights his desire for personal growth, seeking to distance himself from past mistakes and the toxic environment he once inhabited. He emphasizes the reality of relationships that are founded on superficiality while hinting at a deeper emotional connection with a woman who plays a dual role of infatuation and danger. The repeated references to a lifestyle of excess—luxurious cars and late-night escapades—underscore the artist’s ongoing internal struggle with identity, the longing for authenticity in an environment filled with pretense, and the challenges that come with navigating societal perceptions as a black man trying to rise above criminal stereotypes. Overall, "Preto Metido" serves as a powerful commentary on the intersection of identity and ambition in a world that can often feel hostile.
