Favela

As the sun rises
 She opens up her hazel beautiful eyes and
 Begins
 Her baby cries
 She picks him up and tells him beautiful lies
 Again
 She come from the favela-la
 Hills of Santa Teresa-sa
 Underneath the Redeemer-mer
 And the sun in the sky
 She come from the the favela-la
 Ask me e aí, beleza-za?
 Underneath the Redeemer-mer
 Where the hills come alive
 She works the favela night
 ♪
 She works the favela night
 Favela
 She works the favela night

 And the wind blows
 She lives on lonely streets where nobody goes alone
 Just a young girl
 Born on the left side of this right-handed world
 She knows
 She come from the favela-la
 Hills of Santa Teresa-sa
 Underneath the Redeemer-mer
 And the sun in the sky
 She come from the the favela-la
 Ask me e aí, beleza-za?
 Underneath the Redeemer-mer
 Where the hills come alive
 She works the favela night

 Deep in the colours and the streets
 Lost in the funk favela beats
 Prisioneira
 Dancing in the favela
 Safe in the Ipanema Bays
 We raise a glass on holiday
 It's a lopsided world
 When you're a girl
 Born into nothing at all
 She come from the favela-la
 Hills of Santa Teresa-sa
 Underneath the Redeemer-mer
 And the sun in the sky
 She come from the the favela-la
 Ask me e aí, beleza-za?
 Underneath the Redeemer-mer
 Where the hills come alive
 She works the favela night
