Vitória Pros Pretos

I'm favela, I'm black, I'm key
I'm the reality of a needy people
Facing the difficulties
Mandrake kid, hot plate version
Days and days on the community's rooftop, I feel happy
Flowing ideas, playing ball, just us

I see some fools talking about my color
And yet I don't hold a grudge
False prophets singing praise
Making money off the Lord

I respect and admire true black people
Robinho, Obama, Sabota, and Tupac
It wasn't like this, now it's reality
They took the color to the peak

I stop and reflect on what's more important
Peace for us or war ahead?
A straight talk from the funk people
To my rulers

What's the joy in bloodshed
If there are only sheriffs in the midst of the gunfight
In the midst of the gunfight
In the midst of the gunfight

And the favela will wake up
Victory for blacks is about to come
Days of struggle, days of glory
And it can't stop

And the favela will wake up
Victory for blacks is about to come
Days of struggle, days of glory
And it can't stop
