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.
