Ele acordava cedo, ele acordava cedo demais
Ele não tinha medo de patrão nem de capataz
Ele sonhava com o Camaro que ele achava demais
Mas acordava no busão, sempre no banco de trás
Fazia um som, os moleque da área lhe dizia que era bom
Quando tava no palco, ele se transformava
Cantava um rap louco, ele rimava feito um louco
Não ganhava nenhum troco
Então ele dava um trampo
Funcionário de metrô
Sonhava tanto
Que um dia, quando ele acordou
Foi acusado por um erro que outro cara que errou
Foi demitido sem direito, ali que o bicho pegou
Pegou um cano, um dia, juntou cinco mano
Que diziam ter um plano
Sei que ele entrou pelo cano
E na cadeia foi parar
Sua hora vai chegar
Pagando seus pecado
Se arrependa, a liberdade vai cantar
Eu fiz essa canção pro tempo
Pra ver se o tempo me dá um pouco mais de tempo
Pra ver se eu te convenço que a gente é mais que isso
A gente é o hip hop, é o compromisso
Eu fiz essa canção pro tempo
Pra ver se o tempo me dá um pouco mais de tempo
Pra ver se eu te convenço que a gente é mais que isso
A gente é o hip hop, é o compromisso
E a liberdade cantou, saiu pra rua enfim
Determinado a virar a mesa e ganhar seu próprio dim
Trabalhando de garçom era difícil demais
Inspirado no homem, na estrada do Racionais
Ele rimava bem
Foi numa batalha que ganhou
Ficou famoso, hein?
Verbo de navalha
Conheceu uma mina que disse que era firmeza
Pirou na sua beleza
E disse que era amor, certeza
E com essa mina foi morar
Mas nunca tinha show e ele não queria parar
Atacante quer gol
Mas a mina que era falsa não parava de cobrar
Disse que faltava grana, incentivando ele a roubar
E ele disse assim:
"Mina, eu tenho um sonho e vou sonhar, viu?
Mina, se cê quiser, pode vazar
Um dia, o arrependimento vai te visitar
Quando eu virar o jogo, não venha me procurar
Eu fiz essa canção pro tempo
Pra ver se o tempo me dá um pouco mais de tempo
Pra ver se eu te convenço que a gente é mais que isso
A gente é o hip hop, é o compromisso
Eu fiz essa canção pro tempo
Pra ver se o tempo me dá um pouco mais de tempo
Pra ver se eu te convenço que a gente é mais que isso
A gente é o hip hop, é o compromisso
E ele acreditou tanto e lutou tanto que chegou (Glória a Deus)
Gravou seu próprio disco só com a ajuda do Senhor (Amém!)
Vendeu CD na rua e na Internet ele bombou
Deu uma casa pra mãe e sua família ele ajudou
Claro que aquela mina um dia veio procurá-lo (É lógico!)
Arrependida de não ter conseguido esperar
Com um filho nos braços pedindo pra ele cuidar
Mas foi desmentida por um teste de DNA
Hoje sua geladeira não se encontra mais vazia
Cantou sobre a injustiça dessa sociedade fria
Mudou milhões de vidas com a mensagem que escrevia
E todo povo repetia um refrão que ele dizia assim:
Eu fiz essa canção pro tempo
Pra ver se o tempo me dá um pouco mais de tempo
Pra ver se eu te convenço que a gente é mais que isso
A gente é o hip hop, é o compromisso
Eu fiz essa canção pro tempo
Pra ver se o tempo me dá um pouco mais de tempo
Pra ver se eu te convenço que a gente é mais que isso
A gente é o hip hop, é o compromisso
