Inflama, inflama
It ignites, it ignites
Não passa disso, não me engana
It's nothing more than that, don't fool me
Que eu sou sulamericano de Feira de Santana
That I am South American from Feira de Santana
Avisa o americano
Warn the American
Eu não acredito no Obama
I don't believe in Obama
Revolucionário, Guevara
Revolutionary, Guevara
Conhece a liberdade sem olhar no dicionário
Know freedom without looking in the dictionary
Sem olhar no dicionário, ele conhece a liberdade
Without looking in the dictionary, he knows freedom
Vamos que vamos, vou traçando vários planos
Let's go, I'll make several plans
Vou seguir cantarolando pra poder contra-atacar
I'll keep humming so I can counterattack
Contra-atacar, contra-atacar
Counterattack, counterattack
Eu vou traçando vários planos
I'm making several plans
Pra poder contra-atacar
To be able to counterattack
Contra-atacar, contra-atacar
Counterattack, counterattack
Traçando vários planos
Drawing up multiple plans
Pra poder contra-atacar
To be able to counterattack
Contra-atacar, contra-atacar
Counterattack, counterattack
Eu vou traçando vários planos
I'm making several plans
Pra poder contra-atacar
To be able to counterattack
Contra-atacar, contra-atacar
Counterattack, counterattack
Eu vou traçando vários planos
I'm making several plans
Nas veias abertas da América Latina
In the open veins of Latin America
Tem fogo cruzado queimando nas esquinas
There's crossfire burning on the corners
Um golpe de estado ao som da carabina, um fuzil
A coup d'état to the sound of a carbine, a rifle
Se a justiça é cega, a gente pega quem fugiu
If justice is blind, we catch those who escaped
Justiça é cega
Justice is blind
Justiça é cega
Justice is blind
Justiça é cega
Justice is blind
Justiça é cega
Justice is blind
Inflama, inflama
It ignites, it ignites
Não passa disso, não me engana
It's nothing more than that, don't fool me
Inflama, inflama
It ignites, it ignites

Que está bajo control
