Gangazumba irmão de luta
Zumbi se fortificou
Apolônio fez a festa
Quando pastinha chegou
Tocando seu berimbau
Capoeira é dança nossa
Que vem lá dos nossos ancestrais
Hé, hé, joga-te pra qui, joga-te pra lá
Hé, hé, hé…camara
Quero liberdade pro meu povo de cor
Quero liberdade pro meu povo de cor negra
Porque a luta continua na expressão da raça negra
Nasci no calabar, me criei no calabar
Cadê meu calabar pra empunhar o meu tambor
Hé, hé, hé…camara
Quero liberdade pro meu povo de cor
Quero liberdade pro meu povo de cor negra
On a parqué les esclaves dans les Senzalas
A base de mise à l'amende, on les casa là
Flow d'Amazonie pour passer par là
Croyance africaine, terre indienne, Macumba
Candomblé, Xangô, l'Histoire du combat
Capoeira régionale, fierté latina
Zumbi, Lampião, Anastacia
A luta continua, eu quero cultura
Quilombo de Palmares, Quilombo de Bahia
J'ai le cri d'Ipiranga sur la batucada
Ladrão sem causa, mais voler là-bas est une nécessité
La Cidade de Deus ne sait toujours pas remise
De la fracture économique que vit son propre pays
Zé Pequeno pour nous n'est pas un héro
Simplement un môme de plus qui est parti trop tôt
Comme Afro Reggae on est tous impliqués
C'est Favela Rising hiver comme été
Tu connais, on est trop côté
Rejoint nos côtés plutôt que simplement voter
Il faut chercher pour comprendre et ceux qui cherchent comprennent
Brasil ! Une nouvelle partie du Monde que j'aime !
Hé, hé, joga-te pra qui, joga-te pra lá
Hé, hé, hé…camara
Quero liberdade pro meu povo de cor
Quero liberdade pro meu povo de cor negra
Gangazumba irmão de luta
Zumbi se fortificou
Apolônio fez a festa
Quando pastinha chegou
Tocando seu berimbau
Capoeira é dança nossa
Que vem lá dos nossos ancestrais
Hé, hé, joga-te pra qui, joga-te pra lá
Hé, hé, hé…camara
Quero liberdade pro meu povo de cor
Quero liberdade pro meu povo de cor negra
