Below, I translated the lyrics of the song A Morte Do Autotune by Matuê from Portuguese to English.

(I don't know where to go anymore, I feel empty inside

I hide to run away

From this feeling I kept my secrets

I repeated my mistakes but I'm still here

Lost in time, I feel so alone

So alone without you here)

Tuêzin' from the 085

Sat on the couch and smoked five

Grams and cash, came back with a cup full of mud

Walking more frozen than the gringos

While my cat meows at the studio door

I burn a mic, a telescope, a chunk, a cigar

And to those sh*theads who say my flow ain't dirty

I say: I've never been one to listen to a deaf person's opinion

Get out of my way, I'm making too much money

My dough, my money, love you too much

I was born in my parents' war

Now that I'm older, I'm just wanting peace

I wake up, roll one and count the profit

Sharing the piece with my crew

If it's for a hustle, I only do it fair

And if it's not worth my money, I don't even hear you

I write my story, I find a way out

With every new note, a relapse

I write my story, I find a way out

With every new note, a relapse

Poured another glass of whiskey so I can 'intochicar' myself

Or would it be intoxicate?

Either way's fine with me, as long as the wave hits with the buzz

In my head

I swear I'm gonna get blown, no matter what happens

May nothing happen to us

I'll chase away demons until they vanish

(Ayy, ayy

Hold up, hold up, hold up

Go back to the beginning so I can keep the idea going

I'll just roll a joint

It's more or less like this)

Loyalty above everything

But sometimes I spot some chicks

And I feel like jumping the fence

I swear I'm insecure

The cross I carry on my chest

I split it in installments and pay with interest

I don't know if my sound has a future

Or if the future track I drop will blow up

So, I roll another bomb to knock me down

If I don't have to face this sh*t, I let it go

I'll drown in my vanity

Since it's not late, I know one day this moment will end

But I'll go in peace knowing I played my part

And I dropped so much paper that I started to believe

I put faith in my lie or in my truth

Each day it gets harder to tell them apart

And I let my insanity, my sanity

Form a plot to murder me, meanwhile

I write my story, I find a way out

With every new note, a relapse

I write my story, I find a way out

With every new note, a relapse

SONG MEANING

Cue the neon lights of Fortaleza’s night and a studio filled with swirling smoke. In “A Morte do Autotune,” Matuê pulls you straight into his cluttered living room of thoughts, where loyalty, money, self-doubt and a very vocal cat all fight for the spotlight. The rapper flips between swagger and vulnerability, bragging about stacks of cash one moment and confessing a hollow loneliness the next. Every blunt he rolls and every rhyme he drops becomes both an escape hatch and a boomerang that drags him back into his own mind.

Under the haze, a raw confession takes shape. Matuê questions the future of his sound, flirts with vanity, and admits he sometimes believes his own lies. Yet, songwriting remains his lifeline: “I write my story, I find a way out, each new note is a relapse.” The title hints at killing off the artificial polish of autotune, choosing instead to expose every crack in his voice and in his life. It is a gritty diary entry turned anthem, reminding listeners that chasing peace often means wrestling with the demons that guard it.
