I’m from the hood, you can bet on that From the edge of Santa Inês São Paulo raised me in the hustle And I’ve gotten lost about three times... Twice on the wrong bus! (Verse 1) I came from the hood, from the edge of the neighborhood Santa Inês and Parque Cruzeiro in my heart—that’s my school Narrow streets, giant dreams Even as a kid, I wanted to go further I grew up watching life fly by Every street corner taught me a little something There was no map to follow my path But I learned how to walk on my own São Paulo was the stage for my wild moments A new story every day, a few struggles on every street Subway, bus, walking on a mission If I didn't know the way, I’d ask a brother (Pre-chorus) And if I took a wrong turn, I’d head back If I lost my way, I’d try again But there’s one thing I’ll never forget: I caught the wrong bus twice, man! (Chorus) I’m from the streets, I’m on the grind São Paulo’s in my heart From Santa Inês and Parque Cruzeiro to anywhere I move on faith, never losing my way I caught the wrong bus twice Actually, make that three times But I got where I wanted to go If life changes the route I hop off and start walking (Verse 2) I’ve hustled all over the East Side With little cash, but ambition reaching the sky Every outing turned into experience Every stumble became a lesson learned São Paulo is madness, it’s high speed People chasing after opportunity I went after my own space, too Even when the world said: "stay right where you are" Today I look back and see That every struggle fueled my desire To turn my story into sound And show that greatness comes from the streets too (Bridge) First bus: ended up far away Second bus: "Man, where am I?" Third bus: "I’ll just hop off and catch another one" I looked out the window, took a deep breath And thought: "Alright... another adventure begins!" (Chorus) I’m from the streets, I’m on the grind São Paulo’s in my heart From Santa Inês and Parque Cruzeiro to anywhere I move on faith, never losing my way I caught the wrong bus twice Actually, make that three times But that won’t stop me If I take a wrong turn in life I hop off and try to get there again (Outro) From the edge of Santa Inês To my dreams—no limits São Paulo gave me my story And the streets gave me attitude Wrong bus? It’s all part of it. Wrong path? It’s all part of it. The important thing is to keep moving. We’re in this. Rolling in style!
