Canção Pro Tempo Lyrics in English Projota
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Canção Pro Tempo by Projota from Portuguese to English.
Ele acordava cedo, ele acordava cedo demais
He woke up early, he woke up too early
Ele não tinha medo de patrão nem de capataz
He wasn't afraid of bosses or foremen
Sonhava com o Camaro que ele achava demais
He dreamed of the Camaro he thought was awesome
Mas acordava no busão, sempre no banco de trás
But he woke up on the bus, always in the back seat
Fazia um som, os moleque da área lhe dizia que era bom
He made some music, the kids from the hood told him it was good
Quando 'tava no palco ele se transformava
When he was on stage he transformed
Cantava um rap louco, ele rimava feito um louco
He sang a crazy rap, he rhymed like a madman
Não ganhava nem um troco então ele dava um trampo
He didn't even earn a dime so he got a job
Funcionário de metrô, sonhava tanto, que um dia quando ele acordou
Subway employee, he dreamed so much, that one day when he woke up
Foi acusado por um erro que outro cara que errou
He was accused of a mistake that another guy made
Foi demitido sem direito, ali que o bicho pegou
He was fired without rights, that's when sh*t hit the fan
Pegou um cano, um dia juntou cinco mano, que dizia ter um plano
He got into trouble, one day he gathered five guys, who said they had a plan
Sei que ele entrou pelo cano e na cadeia foi parar
I know he got screwed and ended up in jail
Sua hora vai chegar, pagando os seus pecados
Your time will come, paying for your sins
Se arrependa, a liberdade vai cantar
Repent, freedom will sing
Eu fiz essa canção pro tempo
I made this song for time
Pra ver se o tempo me dá um pouco mais de tempo
To see if time gives me a little more time
Pra ver se eu te convenço, que a gente é mais que isso
To see if I convince you, that we are more than this
A gente é o Hip Hop, é o compromisso
We are Hip Hop, it's the commitment
Eu fiz essa canção pro tempo
I made this song for time
Pra ver se o tempo me dá um pouco mais de tempo
To see if time gives me a little more time
Pra ver se eu te convenço, que a gente é mais que isso
To see if I convince you, that we are more than this
A gente é o Hip Hop, é o compromisso
We are Hip Hop, it's the commitment
E a liberdade cantou, saiu pra rua enfim
And freedom sang, he finally hit the streets
Determinado a virar a mesa e ganhar seu próprio din
Determined to turn the tables and earn his own money
Trabalhando de garçom, era difícil demais
Working as a waiter, it was too hard
Inspirado no Homem na Estrada do Racionais
Inspired by "Homem na Estrada" by Racionais
Ele rimava bem, foi numa batalha que ganhou
He rhymed well, it was in a battle that he won
Ficou famoso, hein
He got famous, huh
Verbo de navalha, conheceu uma mina que disse que era firmeza
Sharp-tongued, he met a girl who said she was cool
Pirou na sua beleza e disse que era mó certeza e com essa mina foi morar
He went crazy for her beauty and said it was a sure thing and he went to live with this girl
Mas nunca tinha show e ele não queria parar
But he never had shows and he didn't want to stop
Atacante quer gol, mas a mina que era falsa não parava de cobrar
A striker wants a goal, but the girl who was fake wouldn't stop demanding
Disse que faltava grana, incentivando ele a roubar
She said there wasn't enough money, encouraging him to steal
E ele disse assim, mina, eu tenho um sonho e vou sonhar
And he said like this, girl, I have a dream and I'm going to dream
Viu mina, se 'cê quiser pode vazar
Look girl, if you want you can leave
Um dia o arrependimento vai te visitar
One day regret will visit you
Quando eu virar o jogo não venha me procurar porque eu
When I turn the game around don't come looking for me because I
Eu fiz essa canção pro tempo
I made this song for time
Pra ver se o tempo me dá um pouco mais de tempo
To see if time gives me a little more time
Pra ver se eu te convenço, que a gente é mais que isso
To see if I convince you, that we are more than this
A gente é o Hip Hop, é o compromisso
We are Hip Hop, it's the commitment
Eu fiz essa canção pro tempo
I made this song for time
Pra ver se o tempo me dá um pouco mais de tempo
To see if time gives me a little more time
Pra ver se eu te convenço, que a gente é mais que isso
To see if I convince you, that we are more than this
A gente é o Hip Hop, é o compromisso
We are Hip Hop, it's the commitment
E ele acreditou tanto e lutou tanto que chegou
And he believed so much and fought so much that he made it
Gravou seu próprio disco só com a ajuda do Senhor
He recorded his own album only with the Lord's help
Vendeu CD na rua e na internet ele bombou
He sold CDs on the street and he blew up on the internet
Deu uma casa pra mãe e sua família ele ajudou
He gave his mother a house and he helped his family
Claro que aquela mina um dia veio procurar
Of course that girl one day came looking for him
Arrependida de não ter conseguido esperar
Regretting not having been able to wait
Com um filho nos braços, pedindo pra ele cuidar
With a child in her arms, asking him to take care of it
Mas foi desmentida por um teste de D.N.A
But she was disproven by a D.N.A. test
Hoje sua geladeira não se encontra mais vazia
Today his fridge is no longer empty
Cantou sobre a injustiça dessa sociedade fria
He sang about the injustice of this cold society
Mudou milhões de vida com a mensagem que escrevia
He changed millions of lives with the message he wrote
E todo o povo repetia um refrão que ele dizia assim
And all the people repeated a chorus that he sang like this
Eu fiz essa canção pro tempo
I made this song for time
Pra ver se o tempo me dá um pouco mais de tempo
To see if time gives me a little more time
Pra ver se eu te convenço, que a gente é mais que isso
To see if I convince you, that we are more than this
A gente é o Hip Hop, é o compromisso
We are Hip Hop, it's the commitment
Eu fiz essa canção pro tempo
I made this song for time
Pra ver se o tempo me dá um pouco mais de tempo
To see if time gives me a little more time
Pra ver se eu te convenço, que a gente é mais que isso
To see if I convince you, that we are more than this
A gente é o Hip Hop, é o compromisso
We are Hip Hop, it's the commitment
