Ficar Pra Que?

In 'Ficar Pra Que?' by Benzadeus, the lyrics delve into the painful yet necessary decision to end a relationship that has lost its harmony. The song opens with a resigned acceptance of separation, acknowledging that staying together no longer makes sense. The line 'Não vou somar se você só quer dividir' (I won't add if you only want to divide) poignantly captures the imbalance and lack of mutual effort in the relationship. This sets the stage for the inevitable conclusion that parting ways is the only viable option left.

The chorus, 'Ficar pra quê? Se a gente não se entende mais' (Stay for what? If we no longer understand each other), underscores the growing disconnect between the partners. The passage of time has turned them into rivals, and this realization is like opening a wound in the singer's heart. Despite the pain, there is a sense of acceptance and a resolve to move on, as expressed in 'Vai doer, mas vou me conformar' (It will hurt, but I will accept it). The song poignantly captures the emotional turmoil of recognizing that love alone is not enough to sustain a relationship.

As the song progresses, the singer expresses a bittersweet farewell, wishing the best for their partner while acknowledging their own heartbreak. The repeated line 'Se você quer voar, você pode voar' (If you want to fly, you can fly) symbolizes granting freedom to the other person, even if it means enduring personal pain. The singer's plea to God to guide their partner's path further emphasizes the depth of their love and concern, despite the separation. 'Ficar Pra Que?' is a heartfelt exploration of the complexities of love, loss, and the courage to let go for the sake of personal growth and mutual well-being.
