War Lyrics in English Filipe Ret

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song War by Filipe Ret from Portuguese to English.
Verse 1
I'll build the best castle stacking my stacks
For me the bare minimum is giving my max
I was born with the god of war summoned in my body
The wish to be happy is the goal of the weak
Today I'm only relying on me
You gotta know how to believe in yourself
She wants to sit with her girlfriends
My seed's good, I'm harvesting green
Today my money works for me
I know this fight will never end
She loves me 'cause I'm like this
But she'll never get how I got here, yeah
The suckers are so nice, let's stomp on 'em
If they talk about compassion, I'll laugh till I cry
I don't know if the sound is Beatles or an AK shot
Enemies out of breath make me sing
Because
Wars don't end, they exist till death
My dear
Wars don't end, they exist till death
(War, war, war
War, war, war
War, war, war
War, war)
Verse 2
Light the lighter
At the highest rank, I keep throwing it
High all day, she rides bare
Slow motion while I roll the joint
The law of the jungle and the law of crime walk side by side
Every hood I respect and I'm respected
I shoot, then ask if it hurt
I throw a band-aid, that's my way to love
Without urucum, but so much blood camouflaged me
Bacteria or God, I can't tell you who I am
The suckers are so nice, let's stomp
If they talk about compassion, I'll laugh till I cry
I don't know if the sound is Beatles or an AK shot
Enemies out of breath make me sing
Because
Wars don't end, they exist till death
My dear
Wars don't end, they exist till death
(War, war, war
War, war, war
War, war, war
War, war)

SONG MEANING

War throws us straight into Filipe Ret’s personal battlefield, where every victory is paid for in sweat, smoke, and swagger. From the very first lines he stacks money like bricks to build his own castle, declaring that “the bare minimum is giving my maximum.” Ret paints himself as a modern gladiator blessed – or cursed – with the god of war living in his veins. Happiness is dismissed as a goal for the weak; instead, he chases power, self-reliance, and the thrill of combat. Between flexes about passive income and green buds, he reminds us that faith in yourself is the only real safety net.

The chorus pounds home the brutal truth: “Wars don’t end; they exist until we die.” In Ret’s world the lines blur between music and gunfire, love and violence, compassion and mockery. He fires shots first, hands out Band-Aids later, calling this twisted tenderness. Beneath the bravado lies a stark message for anyone hustling in an unforgiving city – the struggle never really stops, so you might as well own your fight, sharpen your edge, and keep marching to your own relentless beat.
