No tempo que eu era escravo
Autores: Lekinha e Maxuel
No tempo que eu era escravo, Iô, Iô
Apanhava todo dia do Feitor
Escravo queria a salvação
Buscava a sua libertação
Mas essa tal de abolição
Deixou uma herança maldita, meu irmão
Os negros não tinham acesso a nada
Comida, trabalho, educação
Jogando e lutando nas ruas faminto
Não tinham nenhuma outra opção
Caindo na marginalidade
Sofrimento e muita decepção
O negro não tinha o que fazer
Onde ir, vestir, nem menos comer
Hoje em dia ainda há perseguição
Todos querem a sua libertação
Authors: Lekinha and Maxuel
Back when I was a slave, Yo, Yo
He was beaten every day by the overseer.
The slave wanted salvation.
He sought his liberation.
But this so-called abolition
He left behind a cursed legacy, my brother.
Black people had no access to anything.
Food, work, education
Playing and fighting in the streets, starving
They had no other option.
Falling into marginality
Suffering and much disappointment.
The black man had nothing to do.
Where to go, what to wear, and especially what to eat.
There is still persecution today.
Everyone wants his release.
