Luan City 2.0

Mãozinha no céu, vai

Little hand in the sky, go

Vazou um vídeo

A video leaked

Era eu, não vou negar

It was me, I won't deny it

Eu não tava escondido

I wasn't hiding

Te avisei que eu ia lá

I told you I was going there

E se eu disser que eu não peguei ninguém?

What if I said I didn't hook up with anyone?

Se eu disser que eu só fui pra beber?

What if I said I only went to drink?

Se eu disser que alguém chegou em mim

What if I said someone came onto me

E quando disse: Oi, eu falei de você?

And when they said: Hi, I told them about you?

Nada que eu disser, vai te convencer

Nothing I say will convince you

Eu posso tá no ambiente errado

I may be in the wrong environment

Rodeado de amigo safado

Surrounded by naughty friends

Várias me querendo à noite inteira

Several wanting me all night long

Que eu sou fiel até na bagaceira

But I'm faithful even in the mess

Eu posso tá no ambiente errado

I may be in the wrong environment

E rodeado de amigo safado

And surrounded by naughty friends

Várias me querendo à noite inteira

Several wanting me all night long

Que eu sou fiel até na bagaceira

But I'm faithful even in the mess

E se eu disser que eu não peguei ninguém?

What if I said I didn't hook up with anyone?

E se eu disser que eu só fui pra beber?

What if I said I only went to drink?

Se eu disser que alguém chegou em mim

What if I said someone came onto me

E quando disse: Oi, eu falei de você?

And when they said: Hi, I told them about you?

E nada que eu disser, vai te convencer

And nothing I say will convince you

Eu posso tá no ambiente errado

I may be in the wrong environment

E rodeado de amigo safado

And surrounded by naughty friends

Várias me querendo à noite inteira

Several wanting me all night long

Que eu sou fiel até na bagaceira

But I'm faithful even in the mess

Eu posso tá no ambiente errado

I may be in the wrong environment

(Rodeado de amigo safado)

(Surrounded by naughty friends)

(Várias me querendo à noite inteira) que coisa linda

(Several wanting me all night long) how beautiful

Que eu sou fiel até na bagaceira

But I'm faithful even in the mess

Mãozinha no céu de um lado pro outro, BH

Little hand in the sky from one side to the other, BH

Mas esse aqui é o ambiente certo

But this here is the right environment

Totalmente certo

Totally right

Quem gostou joga a mão e faz barulho, vai

Whoever liked it, raise your hand and make some noise, come on
