(Chorus)
You know we're of the street
there's breeding* and soul, feel the fire,
I make the rules of the game
because we're of the street
there's breeding and soul, feel the fire,
I make the rules of the game.
(Verse 1)
We struggle with the law, or we do something illegal.
This is business, don't take it personally.
And I know that today, you are here, my homie,
and I don't know, because of bravery, if you will be here tomorrow.
What is it that you want, I know what you want.
Money, money, it's what the whole world wants.
So glutton*, you will see your own end for ambition.
Ambition is the first step to betrayal.
Yes Sir, that's why they burst.
Well you can't bite the hand that feeds you.
And here, you can't break the word of man,
for your life could be the price.
Don't damage your record for a freak.
The laws of the street aren't the laws of the court.
Here the judges dictate sentences with fire
in battles where there is no ground below you.*
Repeat Chorus
(Verse 2)
Some are born to lead, and others to follow.
The second is your grand admirer. (Yup)
Time goes by and they require positions from you.
Teach something and they want to give you instructions.
Jump rope, serruchador.*
Did you forget when you asked me a favor? (slave)*
I'm not worrying myself with you anymore. This, I did for you.
I'm reminding you that you don't serve!
What happens, happens, and I turn my back on no one.
I wouldn't betray even a business brother for a skirt.*
They get wrapped up in stupid stuff and they fail you.
They think they deserve it, and they deceive themselves.
And in the street, they ate you alive.
The treasurer put pressure on you with Technicide.*
You ended up seated in the witness chair.
Wow, what a sweet name you gave to the farm/hamlet.*
Repeat Chorus
