[English]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Man, I'm on the go, go, go

Ayo Prog, is this the one, bro?

Um, nine, ninety-four, I did the math, dreamed big

Started inside my bedroom, made history on the stage

I never talked trash, I put the GT on the asphalt

Ink on the new contract, doubled my bank statement (Yeah)

I worked hard, today I'm the MVP

Do my thing and get out of here

You copy too much, you're just a mini-me

I'm too wild, even too much for you

I'm still here, while others are plotting against me

Those who doubted me, they cry on show days, ya, ya

Every single day is a show for me

Don't take it personally, don't take it personally

None of this is personal, I'm living a real dream

They want my look, they want my annual income

They want to live like me, cruising on the highway

The world is uncertain, the only certainty is that I made the journey

Amongst the snakes, I had to stay sharp

I'm in my oasis, you're in the desert

I worked hard, today I'm the MVP

Do my thing and get out of here

You copy too much, you're just a mini-me

I'm too wild, even too much for you

I'm still here, while others are plotting against me

Those who doubted me, they cry on show days, ya, ya

Every single day is a show for me

...

[Portuguese]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Mano, eu dou go, go, go

Ayo Prog, is this one, bro?

Um, nove, noventa e quatro, fiz as contas, sonhei alto

Comecei dentro do quarto, fiz história em cima do palco

Nunca fui fala barato, pus o GT no asfalto

Tinta no novo contrato, fiz o dobro no meu extrato (Yeah)

Trabalhei muito, hoje sou MVP

Fazer o meu e tirar o pé daqui

Copias muito, és um mini me

Sou muito louco até demais p'ra ti

Ainda aqui 'tou, manos 'tão a fazer complô

Quem duvidou, chora nos dias de show, ya, ya

Todos os meus dias é show

Não me leves a mal, não me leves a mal

Nada disto é pessoal, 'tou num sonho real

Eles querem o meu visual, querеm o meu anual

Querem vivеr igual, carro na marginal

Mundo incerto, única certeza é que eu fiz o trajeto

No meio das cobras, tive que 'tar esperto

'Tou no meu oásis, tu 'tás no deserto

Trabalhei muito, hoje sou MVP

Fazer o meu e tirar o pé daqui

Copias muito, és um mini me

Sou muito louco até demais p'ra ti

Ainda aqui 'tou, manos 'tão a fazer complô

Quem duvidou, chora nos dias de show, ya, ya

Todos os meus dias é show
