Draken/Ken Ryuguki - Uma Bela Cicatriz
AniRap
The Resilient Warrior: A Tale of Brotherhood and Survival
AniRap's song "Uma Bela Cicatriz" delves into the tumultuous life of Draken, a character from the popular manga and anime series "Tokyo Revengers." The lyrics paint a vivid picture of Draken's harsh upbringing, marked by violence and struggle. Growing up without knowing his father and with a mother who was a prostitute, Draken's life has been a constant battle. Despite these challenges, he maintains a strong sense of honor and conduct, never losing a fight and refusing to be labeled a criminal simply because of his appearance.
The song highlights the formation of the Manji gang, a brotherhood created by Draken and his close friend Mikey. This gang becomes more than just a group of high school delinquents; it evolves into a family bound by loyalty and mutual respect. The lyrics emphasize the deep bond between Draken and Mikey, as well as their commitment to protecting their friends and standing up against injustice. This is evident when they confront the Moebius gang, who have committed heinous acts like rape and cowardice. Draken's fierce loyalty and sense of justice drive him to fight against overwhelming odds, even when faced with life-threatening injuries.
The song's climax revolves around a brutal gang war, where Draken is stabbed but refuses to give up. His resilience and determination are encapsulated in the line, "Uma facada no meu corpo não é capaz de me matar" (A stab in my body is not capable of killing me). Despite the severe injury, Draken continues to fight, driven by his promise to protect his friends and his unwavering belief in their cause. The song ends on a hopeful note, with Draken surviving the ordeal, his scar symbolizing not just physical pain but also his enduring spirit and the bonds of brotherhood that keep him going.
