Vim Para Ficar [English translation]

We're on the way, things haven't changed

You stop and think, life is so short

I'm on the beat, I'm in the battle, head held high

I'm in the dispute, I kill for my mum and my kid

Now I have a daughter, daddy's Clarinha, her mother's face, her attitude is Piruka (life on the streets, fatigue)

The f*cking routine forces you, Portugal is bad

And if there isn't work, how will I fill my stomach?

Many who talk without knowing, nobody feeds the girl for me

I do it for me, the squad mentalises, head up

Life on the street corner has an end, daughter I look out you

Your dad won't leave from here, I want you to see in me

What I never saw in my father, I want to teach you what I learnt

I want to be there fore you, see you fall and be there to lift you up

And show you a path to follow

You won't go through what I went through

I'm here to support you, whatever the case may be

I'd turn the world upside down to make sure you're well

And until God takes me away, I do what I have to, yeah

Life is f*cked, my guy I said it, Piruka for free, press play

The EP 'Pára e Pensa' has hit the streets, homie

I want to give to my mother everything she doesn't have

Life changes and changes, you come back to see and never see goodness

But I open doors and only count on myself, don't even try it

I want a Mercedes for my mother

With a private chauffeur to match of course

And if I want everything for my mother

I fight twice as hard for my daughter

Piruka go calmy, with little jabber

Bring some cash for the troops on the (front)line and pass me the blunt

I'm just passing through, if the shoe fits wear it

A big f*ck you to those who criticise, we're on the screen and the word on the street is Piruka

Boy, let them talk, what matters is that word is getting around

I give my blood for everything you hear me sing (cry)

REFRAIN

Squad, I came to stay, 'Quatro Cantos', the beginning, addiction

It doesn't let me stop, it doesn't stop me because of the addiction

The beginning is to be remembered, music is my craft

And so I'll say again:

Tropa eu vim para ficar, Quatro cantos, o início, vicio

Não me deixa parar, não me para à pala do vício

Início é para relembrar, música é o meu ofício

E então eu volto a citar, squad, I came to stay

I came to stay, they can talk, I stay in my corner, always in control

The brother circulates, I already have the hunger, "I want to run after the Sun"

I don't think it's good, there are so many Stallones on the street

It's just anabolic substances in the body, soon he'll be dead, ends up in the morgue because of Danone, f*ck it

Piruka is red hot, the iron is hot

The house is on fire, potent breed

Madorna on the map in permanent ink

F*ck labels, I'm independent, what they actually want is crowns at the expense of the people

'Quantro Cantos' is the past, 'Pára e Pensa' is the present

It's clear, I'm a soldier and will always be a soldier

Bro I won't change for anything, I've said it

Piruka on the streets, proceed, Madorna is the destination

Until my last day, life gives many slaps

And I've quietly taken my slaps in life, eyes open

Stab wounds are wisdom, you feel revulsion in the calligraphy

I write on a piece of paper what my mouth doesn't say, crazy pens that do magic

Divine poetry of a mere apprentice

Out of my mouth you don't hear what I've never done

I'm not 'vida loca' but believe me I waws and I wasn't happy

Truly, I fight for the roots, Piruka to you, to those close to me it's André

Recruit from the ghetto, I count on my fingers those who don't leave when the fire starts

I look after mine and to this day I have faith

If I don't make it, look after the baby

I don't make out that I'm violent, nor am I violent, but I'm always rolling with the violent ones

Bro, what I really want is notes to put at home, I don't want to be rich

I want to live and I want my mother to be proud of her son

Eyes wide open, I go on my way, family first, the rest is a bonus

I'm another pure one going hard at it so that my future isn't too terrible

You, stop and think for real

Life is not a joke, I walk the streets in search of my prize

At home there are mouths to feed

Feel the power that came to pick me up

I want my people with me toasting, I want my people with me saying

"Piruka didn't come for a short while, he's here to stay", boy
