[English]
I have my family's blessing, reborn from Icesa's ashes
I made the industry wet, I'm at the G-spot of wealth
From this thug life, -life (V-block)
Diamonds being born from V-Block, V-Block, yeah
There's no area like mine, mine's a gold mine
When we arrive, no one gets close
We are aquafina, we are the finest cream
First we shout "vibe", then we shout "winners"
Niggas don't [?] I swear I would change [?]
I used to have Ferrari plates, now I flaunt platinum ones
There's not much difference in [?]
I've been the boss since I was delivering "bina", boy (Skkrt)
Hey, oh my guy, how much does that cost? (That costs)
It costs time, talk little, sell a lot, and don't get scared
Making a living from this is funny, like someone without arms
[?] Phoenix
I have the business instinct, boss instinct
Better yet, I have Rossi's instinct
The style of the voice made flights appear, made voices dodge
Made the girls queens, made the boys kings
We no longer get tangled up with luxury
Because even in beachwear there's light
We're the same scum, but all drunk
Yeah, the same scum, but with euros
We all came from the ghetto, we're making money
Seriously, creating empires (Hey, oh)
Yesterday I was broke
Couldn't even afford a liter, the rosy future was dark
Yesterday I was broke
Used to buy one euro's worth of gas, my life was fucked and without a future
Yesterday I was broke
Was broke, had no clothes, I swear, was broke, forget it
Yesterday I was broke
Was broke, was broke, but today there's no stress
I have my family's blessing, I have my homies at my back
I fought to have what I have
Let me taste the gourmet of this thug life, -life
Diamonds being born from V-Block, V-Block, V-Block
(Ballin')
Yeah, it was only supposed to be a hobby (Ya)
It was only supposed to be just another young guy (Ya)
Was supposed to be either dead or in jail but, thank God
That damn hobby made your boy check the time on a Rolex
On the way to 100k, Vilamoura, but without a teacher
My neighborhood is the capital of Lisbon, changed my life
Now it's just counting victories, I'm not here for stories
Life's smiling back at me, I'm returning the favor
That's winners' talk, big talk
Modesty aside, today we're giants
I only make money, we count it up
We quit the life of knives and guns
But we're 300, all Spartans
Seven homies fit, seven bikes fit
*Vroom-vroom* sideways, the weed here isn't vodka
If it's good, it's a shotgun
I have my family's blessing, I have my homies at my back
I fought to have what I have
Let me taste the gourmet of this thug life, -life
Diamonds being born from V-Block, V-Block, V-Block
I'll never stay still, that's out of the question
The haters try to measure up, then accuse the pressure
I became the most in the country, it's not even a debate anymore
I swear, I know the hater wanted to be in this position
I'm so stoned, I swear, I'm so lit
I get so happy every time I record a hit
I can hear hot girls calling for me
You have no idea what's going on here
If the subject is banger, I dream about it in quantity
They'll never bring the same quality
These guys talk, but they don't do even half
Everything I do turns into a work of art
I swear, I'm always counting so much money
I don't even think about when the end of the month is
She says she loved last night, promised she'll come back again today
I have my family's blessing, I have my homies at my back
I fought to have what I have
Let me taste the gourmet of this thug life, -life
Diamonds being born from V-Block, V-Block, V-Block
But today we choose where we eat
I've been to Brazil and Hong Kong
Money isn't everything but it makes you strong
I'm reaping the fruits of my gift, hum
Good good, it would be to live off this shit forever
Good good, V-block is the block and there's no one who can face us
Good good, we made Portugal clap for us
And it's not luck, we grind, we're ball forward
If you fall, get up happy
Because you don't even have time to cry
V-block is a source of talent
