Eu Me Criei

I don't need you
The world is big
And destiny awaits you
It's not you
Who will give me in the spring
The beautiful flowers
That I dreamed of in my summer

I don't need you
I've done everything
To change my address
I've turned my life inside out
I swear to God I haven't found you anymore

Cards on the table, the player knows the game by the rules
You don't even know that I've already drawn water from a stone
Just to see you smile and not cry for me

You went far, hurting me
Provoked my anger
But I was born between the sail and the macambira
Who are you to spill my mungunzá

I created myself
Listening to the sound of the hammer in the dust
No one better than Master Osvaldo in the wood
With his art
He created much more than ten

I created myself
Easing hunger with Tareco and Mariola
Composing verses
Plucked on the guitar
Through the alleys of my old broom
