Vai e Vem

Capital Inicial's song 'Vai e Vem' delves into the unpredictable and transient nature of life. The lyrics reflect on the constant changes and uncertainties that everyone faces. The opening lines, 'Nem sempre o céu sorri pra mim / Nem sempre eu sou tão livre assim,' set the tone by acknowledging that life isn't always kind or liberating. This sentiment is further emphasized with the recurring theme of wanting to escape, 'Sem destino / Dá vontade de sair / Sem destino / Sem saber aonde ir,' highlighting a desire to break free from the constraints and unpredictability of life.

The chorus, 'A vida é um vai e vem / Nada é pra sempre,' serves as a poignant reminder that life is a series of comings and goings, and nothing is permanent. This cyclical nature is a central theme, suggesting that both good and bad times are temporary. The lyrics also touch on the passage of time and the fleeting nature of dreams and feelings, 'Para onde vai o tempo / Para onde vão os sonhos / Pra onde foi o que eu sentia.' This reflects a sense of nostalgia and the inevitable changes that come with time.

Despite the uncertainties and the ups and downs, the song carries a message of resilience. Lines like 'Mesmo assim / Mesmo assim sobrevivi / Mesmo assim / Eu ainda estou aqui' convey a sense of survival and persistence. The acknowledgment that 'De vez em quando me sinto bem / De vez em quando me sinto mal' captures the fluctuating emotions that everyone experiences. Ultimately, 'Vai e Vem' is a contemplative piece that resonates with anyone who has faced life's unpredictability and emerged stronger, embracing the constant ebb and flow of existence.
