Not you, princess, you're different.
You're not like the other girls of suburb
That's how the men look at you that way
That's how the neighborhood murmurs with envy.
Not you, princess, not you. You're the rose
who was born among thistles as a revenge
to a heartless suburb where the day
takes charge in destroying any hope.
You won't be consumed,
like life passed by.
Mistreated and disliked
without seeing a single promise kept.
She says while brushes the hair
of her princess.
Not you, princess, not you. You weren't born
to suffer the fatigues I suffered
taking off to a miserable's turn-up
an income that can't make ends meet.
Not you, princess, not you: I swear for God
you won't end on your knees mopping floors,
you won't end like a rag like your mother
tired of cleaning shit and giving birth.
You'll get out of this filth
of starving people. I imagine now
the faces of the neighbors
when you appear in a limousine
for this old woman.
She says while brushes the hair
of her princess.
Not you, princess, not you; come back soon...
And she follows her one step behind to the street
ironing with the palm of the hand
a wrinkle that the dress does in her waist.
And as who sees the virgin
going to heaven, she sees her walking away
going to her first casting
for a television ad
The girl worth it, the girl studies
modern dance and declamation.
