Baioque

When I sing, let those who are not my brother beware
My singing, a stab, knows no forgiveness
When I laugh

When I laugh, dry as the sertão
My smile is a crack in the ground
When I cry

When I cry, it's a flood surprising the summer
It's winter, suddenly, flooding the sertão
When I love

When I love, I devour my whole heart
I hate, I adore, in the same prayer, when I sing

Mamy, I don't want to keep wasting away under the sun
Take me away from here, I want to leave dancing rock'n roll

I don't even want to know how to dance the baião
I want to connect, I want a place
In the sun of Ipanema, cinema and television
