Errado Fui Eu

Agepê's song 'Errado Fui Eu' is a poignant reflection on regret and the pain of lost love. The lyrics convey a deep sense of remorse from the narrator, who acknowledges his mistakes and the consequences of his actions. The recurring theme of saudade, a Portuguese word that encapsulates a deep emotional state of nostalgic longing, is central to the song. This feeling of saudade is so intense that it disrupts the narrator's ability to live, smile, dream, love, and sing, highlighting the profound impact of his loss.

The narrator admits his fault, recognizing that he was not there for his partner when she needed him the most. He now understands how much she loved him and regrets judging her harshly when she fought for their relationship. This realization comes too late, as she has already left, and he is left to grapple with the overwhelming sense of loss and longing. The repetition of the phrase 'Sei que o errado fui eu' (I know I was wrong) underscores his deep regret and the weight of his mistakes.

The song also paints a vivid picture of the narrator's past behavior, where he spent his nights out, drinking and enjoying parties, thinking he was living the good life. However, this carefree lifestyle ultimately led to the breakdown of his relationship. The contrast between his past actions and his current state of sorrow and regret is stark, emphasizing the consequences of taking love for granted. The repetitive, almost haunting melody of 'La, lalaiá, lalaiá' adds to the melancholic tone, making 'Errado Fui Eu' a powerful and emotional piece that resonates with anyone who has experienced the pain of lost love and the weight of regret.
