I remember the day i arrived
a young guy who came from the north to the big city
with my feet tired and hurt by walking in tirant mile
with tears on my eyes by reading "O Pessoa"
and the green of the sugar cane
in every corner i walked by a policeman stopped me
ask to see my id and later laughed
seeing the photo 3x4
and thinking the name of the place i came from it's strange
because what is falls in the north
lands in the south, newton knew that
Sao Paulo aggressive, run to the Rio to fool myself
Copacabana, and the strip clubs i live close to
even living like this, i didn't forget how to love
that the man it's for the woman and the heart is to share
but the woman i loved
could not follow me
and in the cases of family and money i never really understood
the sun it's not so pretty for who came from the north to live on the streets
the cold night taught me to love more my day
and with the pain, i discovered the power of the joy
and the assurance that i have new things
new thing to say
my history is maybe
the same as yours, a young man that came from the north
in the south lived in the streets
and was dizzy, like usual for his time
and hopelessness, like usual for his time
and in love and aggressive like me and you
my history is maybe
the same as yours, a young man that came from the north
in the south lived in the streets
and was dizzy, like usual for his time
and hopelessness, like usual for his time
and in love and aggressive like me and you
i am like you
i am like you
i am like you listening to me now
i am like you
i am like you
i am like you
i am like you
i am like you
