Como não recordar de nós dois, quanta saudade
Tantas lembranças tão antigas tão presentes
Que não posso esquecer, como poderia
Nao tem jeito não
Mesmo se eu quisesse renegar, anos depois
Cada passo lado a lado
Cada laço assim atado
Eu não poderia deslembrar jamais
Tem jeito não
Tempo passou pra nós dois
Mas ficou um gosto bom
Tempos depois pra nós dois
Tempo bom que passou
Que passou que ficou

Funk iluminado, bateria da mangueira
Nosso funk ta ligado de segunda a sexta feira
Funk ritmado com cozinha de primeira
Belo funk revoltado no swingue da rockeira
Funk bagunçado descambando em barulheira
Vira funk sossegado do vovô na gafieira
Funk liberado sem receio sem barreira
Pelo funk misturado com forró e capoeira
Povo mal nutrido da caatinga, do cerrado
Vira povo divertido pelo beat do pecado
Povo destemido de miséria ta cercado
Belo povo colorido da mistura derivado
Povo extrovertido generoso e relaxado
Nosso povo é resolvido teje certo teje errado
Povo emputecido com destino complicado
Pelo povo corrompido que se cala no senado

Não é fácil ver ao tempo que là esta passando
Flutuando em nossas mentes, não quero ver ninguém
E se fosse por mim
Eu ficaria sozinho na minha árvore nunca saindo
Lembrar de você é como esquecer meu coração
Você não deixou o traço do nosso imenso amor
Saber quantas vezes eu poderia ter mudado
Você não quer ver ninguém tampouco ser encontrado
Solidão doi a alma e pode destruí-la
Coração aberto revela novos sentimentos
