Viagem Ao Passado

In 'Viagem Ao Passado,' Anastasia takes us on an emotional journey of self-discovery and the search for belonging. The song opens with a plea for courage, as the protagonist faces an overwhelming sense of fear. This sets the stage for a narrative about confronting one's past to find a sense of identity and home. The lyrics suggest that the protagonist has always been taught to face challenges head-on, but the fear they are experiencing now is unprecedented. This fear is tied to the uncertainty of the journey they are about to undertake—a journey back to their roots.

The chorus emphasizes the idea of destiny and the hope that someone is waiting for the protagonist. This someone represents a connection to their past and a sense of belonging that they have been missing. The protagonist believes that their dreams will guide them correctly and that they will be welcomed with open arms when they find their true home. The repetition of 'lar' (home) and 'família' (family) underscores the importance of these concepts in the protagonist's quest. They acknowledge that they once had a home and family and that finding them again is crucial to feeling complete.

As the song progresses, the protagonist expresses a mix of hope and uncertainty. They are taking steps forward, filled with hope, yet unsure of their destination. The journey is both a literal and metaphorical one, as they look to the past to shape their future. The song concludes with a resolute statement that they must return to their roots to find themselves and that peace will only come when they find their home. 'Viagem Ao Passado' is a poignant exploration of the human need for connection, identity, and the courage to face one's past to build a better future.
