Quadros

BK's song 'Quadros' delves deep into the complexities of life, particularly focusing on the struggles and aspirations of those who come from underprivileged backgrounds. The lyrics reflect a relentless pursuit of what the world has to offer, juxtaposed with the harsh realities of growing up with less than the basics. This duality is evident in lines like 'Salário baixo e sonhos de um milionário,' where the artist contrasts low wages with millionaire dreams, highlighting the internal conflict between desire and reality.

The song also explores themes of resilience and defiance. BK' speaks of navigating life's challenges without succumbing to them, as seen in 'Nunca vou me submeter, nunca vão me deter.' This sentiment is further emphasized by the imagery of rising from ashes to become a fire, symbolizing transformation and empowerment. The artist's reflections on life as a series of battles, captured in 'Batalhas são quadros de um passado inalterado,' suggest that these struggles are not just personal but also collective, painting a broader picture of societal issues.

Moreover, 'Quadros' touches on the disillusionment with societal structures and the quest for authenticity. BK' critiques the superficiality of fame and the futility of certain societal norms, as illustrated in 'Vi um homem de muitos quilos morrendo por poucas gramas.' The song's recurring motif of 'quadros' or frames serves as a metaphor for the snapshots of life, both beautiful and tragic, that remain unchanged over time. This metaphor extends to the idea that while individual lives may change, the broader societal issues often remain static, leaving behind only 'quadros' as remnants of past struggles and triumphs.
