Sao Paulo

Aldo Kraas

I never liked you since I was a child

São Paulo

Now that I am grown up I still don't like you either

I don't feel safe being in the streets in São Paulo

To me São Paulo is very ugly in real life

It is only beautiful in the postcards

There is no in between

Either you are rich or poor

There are too many contrasts

São Paulo

A city that never sleeps

São Paulo

I am glad that you don't have snow

One thing that is great in São Paulo is summer, the hot weather

I would go insane if I lived in here forever

For me it is like a prison 

Because it is too dangerous to walk on the streets

It is a very depressing city

São Paulo

It is a real cement city

Buildings and more buildings

Hardly any green

It is an old city

450 years old

For me São Paulo

Is like a prison cell
