pela boca (part. Fabriccio)

Don L's song 'pela boca (feat. Fabriccio)' is a powerful narrative of resistance and defiance against systemic oppression. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a protagonist who has taken control of the city, symbolizing a broader struggle for power and justice. The mention of an 'Audi blindado' (armored Audi) and 'cintura ignorante' (ignorant waist) suggests a readiness for confrontation, challenging the stereotypes and labels imposed by society. The reference to 'Celia Sanchez' and 'nova guerra santa' (new holy war) evokes historical and revolutionary figures, indicating a fight for liberation and justice.

The song critiques the existing power structures, likening them to a 'nova Farc' (new FARC), a reference to the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia. Don L highlights the hypocrisy of those in power, who have historically enslaved, tortured, and confined marginalized communities to favelas. The lyrics emphasize the importance of reclaiming the narrative and acknowledging the true extent of the damage inflicted by these oppressors. The repeated phrase 'Eu prefiro recontar os corpos' (I prefer to recount the bodies) underscores the devastating human cost of this systemic violence.

The chorus, 'Vai morrer pela boca' (You will die by the mouth), serves as a stark warning to those who perpetuate lies and injustice. It signifies a turning of the tables, where the oppressed are no longer silent and are ready to hold their oppressors accountable. The song's imagery of armed brigades and reclaimed resources ('suas empresas agora são do povo' - your companies now belong to the people) reflects a revolutionary vision of societal transformation. Don L's powerful delivery and evocative lyrics make 'pela boca' a compelling anthem for resistance and retribution, resonating deeply with those who have experienced systemic injustice.
