Carma (feat. Manu)

In 'Carma (feat. Manu)', Allanzinho delves into the complexities of unrequited love and the emotional turmoil it brings. The song's lyrics paint a vivid picture of a person deeply in love with someone who does not reciprocate their feelings. This unbalanced affection leads to a sense of despair and self-destruction, as the protagonist admits to drowning their sorrows in alcohol and losing their way in life. The repeated line, 'Parece um carma gostar de você' (It seems like karma to love you), suggests that this love feels like a curse, an inescapable fate that brings more pain than joy.

The song also explores the futile attempts to move on from this one-sided love. The protagonist tries to forget their beloved by getting involved with others, but these efforts prove fruitless. The emotional attachment remains strong, highlighting the idea that true love, even when unreturned, is not easily forgotten. This theme is further emphasized by the lines, 'Tem tanta gente nesse mundo, eu só vejo você' (There are so many people in this world, I only see you), which underscore the protagonist's obsession and inability to see beyond their unrequited love.

Allanzinho's collaboration with Manu adds a dual perspective to the song, with both voices expressing the same sentiment of being trapped in a love that feels like a karmic punishment. The use of the word 'karma' is particularly poignant, as it implies a sense of inevitability and a cycle of suffering that cannot be broken. This song resonates with anyone who has experienced the pain of loving someone who does not love them back, capturing the essence of heartache and the struggle to move on.
