Tira que me vem ligeira, a sina
Me passa cai numa rasteira
Me finge, que ta sem amarra
Foge dessa brincadeira, eu assumo.
Essa fogueira é lasqueira, sem rumo.
Acho que vai incendiar.
Acho que vai incendiar.
Que sou tônus e mal eficaz
Minha língua dá voltas e traz
O calor da sua rede, beleza
O amor que tem sede de seda

Fascista, milico, empreiteiro no ócio
Ao dono do agronegócio, me finge
Que ta sem grilar
Mas o pai e rei da feira assume
O risco dessa fogueira sem rumo
Acho que vai incendiar
Um fuzil, Três oitão na sua mão
Apenas meu peito e um rojão
Cantando da beleza a tristeza Cantando da tristeza a beleza.
Meu papá meu papá
Meu pa país está perdido nas mãos de quem é sal
Meu pa país intolerância
Meu pa país can’t talk
Meu papá meu pap[a
Meu pa país tem ódio e medo Meu pa país cantai
Meu pa país semeia a terra daquela flor que faz
Crescer os frutos fortes no sopé da paz.
Que sou tônus e mal eficaz
Minha língua dá voltas e traz
O calor da sua rede, beleza
O amor que tem sede de seda
Um fuzil, Três oitão na sua mão
Apenas meu peito e um rojão
Cantando da beleza, a tristeza
Cantando da tristeza, a beleza.
Um fuzil, Três oitão na sua mão
Apenas meu peito e um rojão.
about
In 2021, still during the pandemic, we were awarded the Maria Alice Vergueiro Prize (Module I of the Emergency Aldir Blanc Law). This grant provided the foundation for our work that year. All activities aimed to deepen and share our research on Anthropophagy. Poet Pedro Coêntro wrote "My Country" and composed it with Claudio Mascaro, recording the song with the band Manga Régia. The music video was filmed at Casa Livre and released on Santa Companhia's YouTube channel in 2022.
The song is also available on all digital platforms.
synopsis
Our independence has yet to be proclaimed
I THINK IT'S GOING TO BURN
My country, yours, ours.
Every day, millions don't know what they'll eat, thousands live on the streets, many perish from cold. No path will change anything - not the first, not the second, nor the third. Only the people, and the people alone, can change their history. It's time to declare Brazil's true independence - a Brazil that escapes the salty hands of patriarchy and falls into the people's embrace. Tomorrow will be another day!
