Nunca Foi Sorte Lyrics in English Luísa Sonza

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Nunca Foi Sorte by Luísa Sonza from Portuguese to English.
Verse 1
Who said soccer's for boys?
Who said blue's the color he must wear?
A man who's a real man raises a son
Showing him what life has to give
I don't want complicity
But I want respect
Verse 1
The car door doesn't need to be opened for me
Because if he wants his son
To be a good guy
Verse 1
Throw the machismo out
Open your mind and do it like this
Dance, shake, grind
Stick that booty out, go down to the floor
Don't mind what they say
Don't stop, don't stop, don't stop
Oh, don't stop, no
Move, wiggle, throw yourself down, up
Side to side
Do the little step, do the little square
Forward, back, wherever the sound takes you
Ask, if they don't hear, repeat
If it doesn't work, ponder
Break the ice, put yourself in your place
Show it was never luck
That besides being strong
It's talent, it's a gift, nobody can take away
Ask, if they don't hear, repeat
If it doesn't work, ponder
Break the ice, put yourself in your place
Show it was never luck
That besides being strong
It's talent, it's a gift, nobody can take away
Verse 2
Who said soccer's for boys?
Who said blue's the color he must wear?
A man who's a real man raises a son
Showing him what life has to give
I don't want complicity
But I want respect
Verse 2
The car door doesn't need to be opened for me
Because if he wants his son
To be a good guy
Verse 2
Throw the machismo out
Open your mind and do it like this
Dance, shake, grind
Stick that booty out, go down to the floor
Don't mind what they say
Don't stop, don't stop, don't stop
Oh, don't stop, no
Move, wiggle, throw yourself down, up
Side to side
Do the little step, do the little square
Forward, back, wherever the sound takes you
Ask, if they don't hear, repeat
If it doesn't work, ponder
Break the ice, put yourself in your place
Show it was never luck
That besides being strong
It's talent, it's a gift, nobody can take away
Ask, if they don't hear, repeat
If it doesn't work, ponder
Break the ice, put yourself in your place
Show it was never luck
That besides being strong
It's talent, it's a gift, nobody can take away

SONG MEANING

"Nunca Foi Sorte" turns the dance floor into a classroom for equality. Luísa Sonza kicks away old clichés like “football is for boys” or “blue is a boy color” and shows that real strength lies in teaching the next generation to respect everyone. The track urges fathers to ditch machismo, open their minds, and let kids grow without outdated rules. Over a contagious beat, Luísa invites everyone to shake, drop, and twirl however they want because self-expression is a right, not a privilege.

Between each fiery dance command, she repeats a powerful reminder: it was never luck. Success, confidence, and freedom come from talent, persistence, and inner power that no one can take away. The song is both a party anthem and a feminist manifesto, blending playful choreography cues with a serious message: insist on respect, break the ice, stand your ground, and shine — all while having a blast on the dance floor.
