Sem Cannabis (feat. Ari e Shock)

Costa Gold's song "Sem Cannabis (feat. Ari e Shock)" delves into the complex relationship between the artists and cannabis, using it as a metaphor for stability and creativity. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of the highs and lows experienced when cannabis is absent from their lives. The repeated line, "Eu fico de cara quando eu tô Sem Cannabis" (I freak out when I'm without cannabis), underscores the dependency and the emotional turmoil that ensues when they are deprived of it. This dependency is not just physical but also mental, as cannabis seems to be a crucial part of their creative process and daily routine.

The song also touches on broader themes of substance use and the lifestyle that often accompanies it. References to other drugs like LSD, amphetamines, and cocaine highlight the chaotic and sometimes destructive nature of this lifestyle. The artists juxtapose their drug use with their success and creativity, suggesting that while these substances may fuel their art, they also bring a host of problems. The line, "Larguei cocaína depois larguei essa rima aqui" (I quit cocaine after I quit this rhyme here), indicates a struggle to find balance and maintain a semblance of normalcy amidst the chaos.

Cultural references abound in the song, from mentions of Kurt Cobain to Al Pacino, adding layers of meaning and connecting their personal experiences to broader cultural narratives. The artists' use of vivid imagery and raw language creates a sense of authenticity, making the listener feel the intensity of their experiences. The song is a candid exploration of the highs and lows of a lifestyle intertwined with substance use, creativity, and the quest for meaning and stability.
