Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Atención by Anitta from Spanish to English.

Chorus 1

Attention, formation, the captain arrived

In the tribe of the women that are tough like me

Attention, formation, the captain arrived

In the tribe of the women that are tough like me

We are the toughest on the road

And let everyone that doesn't believe open their eyes

All the jealous ones, get outside

Chorus 1

They criticize me because I do whatever

Verse 1

Don't even ask how the queen takes the throne

For a long time now they don't even know how

How so? How was it? I know this path

How is it that you never see it? You will never understand

But I know that what bothers you is that you don't live like me

And I know that you care, but I don't

You play the game, but I have the control

I'm gonna show you why I'm superior

Chorus 2

Attention, formation

We are the toughest on the road

And let everyone that doesn't believe open their eyes

All the jealous ones, get outside

Chorus 2

They criticize me because I do whatever

Verse 2

And whatever I have to do

It's that they criticize me, but they don't show themselves

The less you like it, the more I'm gonna do it

I'm not about making another woman feel less

If I feel like it, then I'll do it

And if I want it, then I'll pay for it

If it's on my dime, that's what I work for

Always on top, that's why I never turn it down

Chorus 3

Attention, formation

We are the toughest on the road

And let everyone that doesn't believe open their eyes

All the jealous ones, get outside

Chorus 3

They criticize me because I do whatever

SONG MEANING

“Atención, formación” sounds like a commander’s shout, and that is exactly how Anitta positions herself: as the fearless captain of a powerful female tribe. With driving beats and military-style calls, she rallies all women who are “duras” – tough, resilient, and unapologetically confident. The song celebrates taking charge, demanding respect, and staying focused on personal goals, no matter who doubts or criticizes.

Throughout the lyrics Anitta waves off envious onlookers and haters, making it clear that she controls the game. She pays her own way, works for what she wants, and refuses to tear down other women in the process. Instead, she turns negativity into motivation: “The less you like it, the more I’ll do it.” “Atención” is an energetic anthem of self-empowerment, female solidarity, and unstoppable ambition, urging listeners to stand tall, own their success, and keep marching forward with pride.
