Describe the performance that you put on

Most of my songs are fast...
I mean, what do you put into it?
Describe the performance that you put on
What I do?
Most of my songs are fast...
I mean, what do you put into it?
Well, whatever I sing that's what I really mean
Like I'm singing a song
I don't sing it if I don't mean it
[Refrão]
Tequi-tequi-tequi-tequi-tequila
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Problemas eu 'tou a vencer, yeah yeah
Yah
Tequi-tequi-tequi-tequi-tequila
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Problemas eu 'tou a vencer, yеah yeah
Yah
[Verso 1]
Aponto p'ró vermelho p'ró sanguе da minha garra
People da minha terra sabe a guerra da senzala
[calo-os num instante?], cozinha cheia de mancara
Verde nas ruas, amarelo na minha cara
E cara feia não há
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Negative vibes não há
Yeah
Difícil ir ao espelho sem questionar identidade
Imaginar bonança vir antes da tempestade
Impôr respeitos, respeitar outro tipo de verdade
Refletir e concluir, deixar de lado a dignidade, yah
[Pré-Refrão]
He's black, he's white
Sempre na linha mas nunca no 'memo fight
Sem olhar p'ra trás, eu sinto o hair, mas digo "nice try"
E no fim do dia só quero brindar com uma tequi-tequi
[Refrão]
Tequi-tequi-tequi-tequi-tequila
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Problemas eu 'tou a vencer, yeah yeah
Yah
Tequi-tequi-tequi-tequi-tequila
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Problemas eu 'tou a vencer, yeah yeah
Yah
[Verso 2]
Eu do meu bairro lá do topo, ninguém pode ver
Eu na escalada a subir com bairro nas costas
Afro-latinas nas novelas gritam: "mira-me"
Quando voltas?
Uns querem algo, outros querem atenção
Uns pedem-me água, outros pedem lição
Uns ao pé do mar, outros ao pé d'um vulcão
Deixa a mão nas costas p'ra não cair no chão
Eu não procuro vidas p'ra mim
Or you safe, or you got money
Eu só quero my legacy
Sem percentagem de jealousy
Conduzir o destino sem querer mudar
Esse é o challenge
Ir em frente, firme sem querer virar
Esse é o challenge
[Pré-Refrão]
He's black, he's white
Sempre na linha mas nunca no 'memo fight
Sem olhar p'ra trás, eu sinto o hair, mas digo "nice try"
E no fim do dia só quero brindar com uma tequi-tequi
[Refrão]
Tequi-tequi-tequi-tequi-tequila
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Problemas eu 'tou a vencer, yeah yeah
Yah
Tequi-tequi-tequi-tequi-tequila
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Problemas eu 'tou a vencer, yeah yeah
Yah
Describe your performance
What do I do?
Many of my songs are fast ...
I mean, what do you put in that?
Well, all I sing is what I really mean
Like I'm singing a song
I don't sing if I don't want to
[Chorus]
Tequi-tequi-tequi-tequi-tequila
Yes Yes Yes Yes
Problems I'm winning, yeah yeah
Yes
Tequi-tequi-tequi-tequi-tequila
Yes Yes Yes Yes
Problems I'm winning, yеah yeah
Yes
[Verse 1]
I point to the red p'ró blood of my claw
People from my homeland know the war of the slave quarters
[can I call them up in an instant?], kitchen full of mango
Green in the streets, yellow in my face
And there is no ugly face
Yes Yes Yes
There are no negative vibrations
Yes
Difficult to go to the mirror without questioning identity
Imagine bonanza come before the storm
Enforce respect, respect another kind of truth
Reflect and conclude, let go of dignity, yah
[Pre-Chorus]
He is black he is white
Always on the line, but never in the 'memo, fight
Without looking back, I feel the hair, but I say "nice try"
And at the end of the day I just want to toast with tequi-tequi
[Chorus]
Tequi-tequi-tequi-tequi-tequila
Yes Yes Yes Yes
Problems I'm winning, yeah yeah
Yes
Tequi-tequi-tequi-tequi-tequila
Yes Yes Yes Yes
Problems I'm winning, yeah yeah
Yes
[Verse 2]
Me from my neighborhood from the top, no one can see
Me on the climb to climb with neighborhood on the back
Afro-Latinas in soap operas shout: "look at me"
When you come back?
Some want something, others want attention
Some ask me for water, others ask for a lesson
Some at the foot of the sea, others at the foot of a volcano
Let your hand on your back so you don't fall on the floor
I don't look for lives for me
You are either safe or you have money
I just want my legacy
No percentage of jealousy
Driving the destination without wanting to change
This is the challenge
Go forward, steady without wanting to turn
This is the challenge
[Pre-Chorus]
He is black he is white
Always on the line, but never in the 'memo, fight
Without looking back, I feel the hair, but I say "nice try"
And at the end of the day I just want to toast with tequi-tequi
[Chorus]
Tequi-tequi-tequi-tequi-tequila
Yes Yes Yes Yes
Problems I'm winning, yeah yeah
Yes
Tequi-tequi-tequi-tequi-tequila
Yes Yes Yes Yes
Problems I'm winning, yeah yeah
Yes
