  • Caminho para vencer a tristeza

    Caminho para vencer a tristeza

    Logo que você passou,
    Experimentei uma enorme frustração,
    E, até então, nada mudou.

    Nada adianta querer,
    Se a cabeça continuar na mesma,
    O caminho pede a nossa participação.

    Faz tempo,
    É tempo demais,
    Em que vivo nessa triste agonia.

    Deixe sair o que incomoda,
    Lave com água e sabão,
    Esterilize o local com boas ações.

    Há camadas que podem voltar,
    Permita que elas voltem,
    Para, então, serem curadas.

    Daqui para frente, tudo será transparente,
    O mesmo caminho visto de maneira diferente,
    Cicatrizes que nos animam pelo caminho.

  • Why is it important to know?

    Why is it important to know?

    Does it matter to know who you are?
    Who continues to live in anonymity?
    Don't you want to know why?
    You know what, I don't want to know.

    Today is just another normal day
    Different from the others I've experienced
    But today, in particular, is just another day
    That in its normality teaches me how to live.

    Normal days passing by
    In exhausting frustration
    Waiting for a solution to come
    What only waits never comes.

    Does it matter if I will win in life?
    Far from success, I follow my path
    Life silenced by lack of opportunity
    Today is just another ordinary day, what does it matter?

    Does it matter to know where destiny is taking me?
    The choices I made and make, where do they take me?
    What future am I building?

    Today I walk aimlessly
    Far from the solution, I remain
    On any given day, I find myself lost.
