Sal Grosso Lyrics English Translation by Anitta
(feat. KBrum)
Oyá, Oyá, Oyá, Oyá, Oyá
Oyá, Oyá, Oyá
Coarse salt, prayer, candle, match
In the concrete jungle you gotta hold it down
I’m smooth cornmeal, hot pepper burns, it’s strong
It’s pure street smarts, palm oil, step-step-step-step on the
Coarse salt, prayer, candle, match
In Madureira city you gotta show respect
I’m smooth cornmeal, hot pepper burns, it’s strong
Come without the fake tears, baby, it’s step-step-stepping on the ground
Sound system knows it’s pressure
Sound in your head makes the floor shake
There’s a funk party on the wall
There’s a charme party on the wall
Kite flies, they cut the string
Dona Ciça, bring more lime
Life lived on the boardwalk
Divine blessing of axé, yeah, yeah
Nobody can mess with me, you know how it is
A hustler’s heart beats in the sole of his foot
I’ve got a strong saint, I’ve got Guinea herb
Before the first sip I always salute Seu Zé
I lit that candle I brought from the market
I don’t leave home without my protection
On party day there’s always the wall
Set it on fire, burn it, whoever’s got bad intentions
Evil eye, bad vibes
Got stopped in my amulet
In this sacred ritual
Body dances to cleanse
My grandpa taught me
Coarse salt, prayer, candle, match
In the concrete jungle you gotta hold it down
I’m smooth cornmeal, hot pepper burns, it’s strong
It’s pure street smarts, palm oil, step-step-step-step on the
Coarse salt, prayer, candle, match
In Madureira city you gotta show respect
I’m smooth cornmeal, hot pepper burns, it’s strong
Come without the fake tears, baby, it’s step-step-stepping on the ground
