Favela (with Alok)
As the sun rises
She opens up her hazel, beautiful eyes and
Begins
Her baby cries
She picks him up and tells him beautiful lies
Again
She come from the favela-la
Hills of Santa Teresa-sa
Underneath the Redeemer-mer
And the sun in the sky
She come from the favela-la
Ask me, "E aí, beleza-za?"
Underneath the Redeemer-mer
Where the hills come alive
She works the favela night
She works the favela night
Favela
She works the favela night
And the wind blews
She lives on lonely streets where nobody goes alone
Just a young girl
Born on the left side of this right-handed world
She knows
She come from the favela-la
Hills of Santa Teresa-sa
Underneath the Redeemer-mer
And the sun in the sky
She come from favela-la
Ask me, "E aí, beleza-za?"
Underneath the Redeemer-mer
Where the hills come alive
She works the favela night
Favela
She works the favela night
Favela
Deep in the colors and the streets
Lost in the funk favela beats
Prisioneira
Dancing in the favela
Safe in the Ipanema bays
We raise a glass on holiday
It's a lopsided world
When you're a girl
Born into nothing at all
She come from the favela-la
Hills of Santa Teresa-sa
Underneath the Redeemer-mer
And the sun in the sky
She come from favela-la
Ask me, "E aí, beleza-za?"
Underneath the Redeemer-mer
Where the hills come alive
She works the favela night
Favela
She works the favela night
Favela
She works the favela night
She opens up her hazel, beautiful eyes and
Begins
Her baby cries
She picks him up and tells him beautiful lies
Again
She come from the favela-la
Hills of Santa Teresa-sa
Underneath the Redeemer-mer
And the sun in the sky
She come from the favela-la
Ask me, "E aí, beleza-za?"
Underneath the Redeemer-mer
Where the hills come alive
She works the favela night
She works the favela night
Favela
She works the favela night
And the wind blews
She lives on lonely streets where nobody goes alone
Just a young girl
Born on the left side of this right-handed world
She knows
She come from the favela-la
Hills of Santa Teresa-sa
Underneath the Redeemer-mer
And the sun in the sky
She come from favela-la
Ask me, "E aí, beleza-za?"
Underneath the Redeemer-mer
Where the hills come alive
She works the favela night
Favela
She works the favela night
Favela
Deep in the colors and the streets
Lost in the funk favela beats
Prisioneira
Dancing in the favela
Safe in the Ipanema bays
We raise a glass on holiday
It's a lopsided world
When you're a girl
Born into nothing at all
She come from the favela-la
Hills of Santa Teresa-sa
Underneath the Redeemer-mer
And the sun in the sky
She come from favela-la
Ask me, "E aí, beleza-za?"
Underneath the Redeemer-mer
Where the hills come alive
She works the favela night
Favela
She works the favela night
Favela
She works the favela night
