Pesadão Lyrics in English IZA , Marcelo Falcao

Home / Lyrics Translation / IZA / Pesadão

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Pesadão by IZA from Portuguese to English.

Oooh oooh-ô-oh

Boom, boom, boom, boom

Oooh oooh-ô-oh

I'm gonna rebuild my castle

Iron and hammer

Win back what I lost

I know they'll try to destroy me

But I'll rebuild myself

I'll be stronger than before

When evil came through here

And sadness made shelter

Light from the sky visited me

And made a home in me

When fear took over

Bringing senseless war

Hope stayed here

Keeps vibrating

And made me fight to win

Get up and grow

Fists clenched, eyes closed

And I raise my hand up high and shout

Come with me, heavy-crew people!

Oooh oooh-ô-oh

Heavy sound, heavy-heavy

Oooh oooh-ô-oh

Still raising my castles

Voices and echoes

Only then I didn't lose myself

Endless dreams

Voices and screams

To call those who can't hear

From Engenho Novo to Australia

Ready for battle

Head held high always to keep going

If they try to stop us, it's not that easy

We'll be stronger than before

From south to north

Booming bundles

Music of the soul

For the wise and strong

Game of Thrones

Can't mess with us

My bling is our sound

Iza and Falcão are from the heavy crew

Oooh oooh-ô-oh

Heavy sound, heavy-heavy

Oooh oooh-ô-oh

Heavy sound, heavy-heavy

Heavy-heavy, heavy-heavy

Heavy-heavy

If theirs is fancy

Ours is mud-and-stick

That doesn't kill the pace

It strengthens the team

The sound of the repique

I ask you to amplify

It plays from Rocinha

Reaches Mozambique

Wise words from your company

Lots of space, I step on your path

Attitude, I whip up a heavy rap dialect

Repique, like lightning I hit

Iza like an empress

Friendships and bonds

New castles

Iza and Falcão are from the heavy heavy heavy crew

Oooh oooh-ô-oh

Heavy sound, heavy-heavy

Oooh oooh-ô-oh

Heavy sound, heavy-heavy

Oooh oooh-ô-oh

Heavy sound, heavy-heavy

Oooh oooh-ô-oh

Heavy sound, heavy-heavy

SONG MEANING

Ready to raise your fists and rebuild your castle? “Pesadão” is IZA’s thunderous anthem of resilience. Over a pesadão – heavy and powerful – beat, she declares that no setback can keep her down. With “ferro e martelo” (iron and hammer) in hand, she vows to reconstruct everything she has lost, drawing strength from hope, music, and the people who march beside her. The song turns darkness into fuel: when fear and sadness knock, IZA answers with light and unshakable confidence.

Joined by Marcelo Falcão, she expands that personal comeback into a collective movement that travels “do Engenho Novo pra Austrália.” It is a shout-out to every neighborhood, every listener, inviting them into the bonde pesadão – the unstoppable crew powered by booming drums, Brazilian swagger, and unity. Whether your “castle” is a dream, a community, or your self-belief, this song promises that together we can rebuild it stronger than ever, fists clenched, voices loud, sound system turned all the way up.
