Crer-Sendo

Castello Branco's song 'Crer-Sendo' delves into the intricate balance of love, self-awareness, and personal growth. The lyrics emphasize the need to love less selfishly and more attentively, suggesting that true love requires a deep understanding and mindfulness. The repetition of 'preciso amar' (I need to love) underscores the importance of love as a conscious and deliberate act, rather than a passive emotion. This reflects a philosophical approach to love, where the act of loving is intertwined with self-awareness and inner balance.

The song also explores the concept of inner growth and self-discovery. Phrases like 'por dentro que está' (inside that is) and 'por dentro que palpita aqui por dentro' (inside that beats here inside) highlight the importance of looking inward to find one's true self. The idea that 'amar jamais será demais' (loving will never be too much) suggests that love, when balanced and mindful, is an endless and enriching journey. The lyrics advocate for a love that is not just about emotional connection but also about personal development and equilibrium.

Furthermore, 'Crer-Sendo' touches on the existential purpose of life and love. The lines 'não há porque viver se não pra crer e ser crescendo sendo' (there is no reason to live if not to believe and be growing being) and 'não há porque amar se não pra semear conhecimento' (there is no reason to love if not to sow knowledge) suggest that the ultimate goals of life and love are growth and the dissemination of wisdom. This philosophical perspective encourages listeners to view love as a means of personal and collective enlightenment, rather than just a romantic or emotional experience.
