Acabou, Mas Tem... Lyrics in English Emicida

Home / Lyrics Translation / Emicida / Acabou, Mas Tem...

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Acabou, Mas Tem... by Emicida from Portuguese to English.

The afternoon lies calm

Like a child's kiss

It's a blessing, girl

A keepsake in hand, to whom it may concern

I'm zen to an impossible degree

Counting my fears, what a level

So swift an omen comes, honestly

I just wanna be fine, like someone who's a feather

But also a puma in the way you live

Out there the world doesn't help

That's why I just wanna be alright with you

I just wanna be fine, like someone who's a feather

But also a puma in the way you live

Out there the world doesn't help

That's why I just wanna be alright with you

Verse 1

I don't feel my friends are gone, no

I feel they moved inside me

Life being brief frustrates me, no reason why

How can a whole country pull off faking being alive?

So I'm Defoe's Crusoe, or rather

Drummond's José or Bandeira amid the ashes of hours

Verse 1

Just hurt, struggle and passion

Outside it's endless human misery

On the last day, paupery calls

Turning into Siberia is the plan, bro

Looks like God went on vacation

And I just wanna be fine, like someone who's a feather

But also a puma in the way you live

Out there the world doesn't help

That's why I just wanna be alright with you

I just wanna be fine, like someone who's a feather

But also a puma in the way you live

Out there the world doesn't help

That's why I just wanna be alright with you

Verse 2

It feels like a ghastly script

The east of this continent

The plague's just a detail, what's not sick here?

Given a blank check, demons roam

They shrug at innocent lives

And no pain halts the party

Who kills a river will save people?

The rich aim at Mars, hit death

It stops art, dries the whole pot

They push the herd through, wipe it all

Leaving only disgust, sewage, sludge

Dirty water rained on Brazil's heart, everybody saw

It turned night at three p.m., dude, and life went on as usual

Pinch your own arm and ask yourself

If you're still able to feel anything

Still able to feel anything

Pinch your own arm and ask yourself

If you're still able to feel anything

Still able to feel anything

SONG MEANING

Acabou, Mas Tem... drops us into Emicida’s living room, where a lazy afternoon feels light as a feather while the world outside prowls like a puma. He longs for the simple joy of being bem with someone he loves, even as he remembers friends who now live only in his heart and counts his fears like beads. In vivid snapshots he shows Brazil’s social wounds, environmental disasters, and political indifference, asking how an entire country can keep pretending to be alive.

This push-and-pull between softness and struggle powers the song’s message: peace is possible, but never guaranteed. Literary nods, eco-alarms, and sharp social critique converge into a final challenge: pinch your own arm and see if you can still feel anything. When the music stops, Emicida leaves us holding a small, stubborn hope – the wish to stay human, stay awake, and simply stay bem with the people we love.
