Reflexões

I woke up sad today
Tense, pensive
Kind of downcast
Unhappy with myself

I remembered all the shit
That I've done in my life
And all the opportunities I've lost
School, work, I threw it all away

Because of the parties
The whores and the drugs
A fucked-up mistake
I fell into depression

Was the effort of my parents
In vain?
I hope not
I'm gonna turn things around

Try to follow everything I say
In my rhymes
It's become routine
Several nights without sleep

Thinking of a solution
To start smiling again
To make my parents happy again
Finally, to make my son proud of me

Fix all my mistakes
Give all possible love
To those who were always by my side
Whether in joy, or in sadness

Only family, man
You can be sure
Relatives, women
All of that is relative

When you're doing well
You're full of friends
Very different from when you're at your worst
Everyone disappears and you're alone

Where are your partners?
Where?
Where are your friends?
Where?

They're in party land and you're fucked up
Deluded
With false friendships
On the road of bitterness, a hostage of vanity

Maybe it's just a phase
Then comes abundance
I hope it's not too late
For change to happen

The young guys, the men see us all as examples
And we're giving them plenty of chances
Going off the rails
Watch it

Where is the demeanor
Of a true leader?
We're destroying ourselves
We're being cowards

Doing all that
That we shouldn't be doing
Serving the enemy
And thinking it's leisure

It's not supposed to be like this, man
It's all wrong
It's never too late to live
You just have to take the first step

I sleep poorly, dream
Almost the whole night
I wake up tense
Dizzy and with dark circles

What to do when the fortress has trembled
And almost everything around you
Has corrupted
But it's not enough to just talk nicely, you have to act

See where the mistake is, dammit
Let's reflect
Is it in the lyrics?
Lifestyle?

Beware of invitations, accomplice, pay attention
Because this gangster life is just coffins and black candles
Sadness for the family
Accumulation of trouble

Besides the pussies
Who hold you back
Who show up at things
And talk all excited

That intruder
He thinks he's all that
Let him be foolish
His turn is coming

He just wants to know about tattoos
Marijuana, pussy
Acting like Snoop Dogg
It'll just be in his head

I'll put it aside
When the bullets start flying
Then I'll really see
If he's the crazy one

Like he talks about in these shitty little raps
If I run into this scoundrel, it's a hug and it's over
You see, man
How do the gossips act?

They complicate your life
Destroy your peace
And also the whores
Who cross your path

To put you in a bind
Takes no time
The path is thorny
Who said it would be easy?

Only those who are born warriors
Find paradise
On the streets, on the asphalt
Wherever you are

There's always someone
Who will take your value
Who speaks what they don't know
Spreads lots of lies

And brazenly hopes
For your failure
It's these things
That make me lose faith

Sometimes I feel like
Leaving rap aside
Getting on with my life
Forgetting the commitment

But what the fuckers want, man
Is precisely that
To see you frustrated
Nourishing defeat

Without perspective
On a path of no return
It's tough, my friend
I'm a bit discouraged

My mind is shaken
It's crazy how things are
Stories without glory
There are so many in this life

Many have gone wrong
Surrounded by scoundrels
Who only offer you
What makes you regress

Who enter your life
Just to subtract
Your peace
Self-esteem, your honesty

Your good intentions
Maybe your freedom
The truth is that humility
Is only for those who deserve it

The scum we crush
That's the idea, kid
If we're from rap, then
Let's honor it

This shirt
That we wear
On the right path
We will walk
