Ninguém Viu Ninguém Vê

Derxan's song 'Ninguém Viu Ninguém Vê' delves into the raw and often harsh realities of life in the streets. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a world where trust is scarce, and survival is paramount. The recurring line 'Ninguém me viu, ninguém vê' (Nobody saw me, nobody sees) underscores a sense of invisibility and isolation, suggesting that the struggles and experiences of the narrator go unnoticed and unacknowledged by society. This theme of being unseen is a powerful commentary on the marginalization faced by many individuals in similar circumstances.

The song also touches on themes of betrayal and self-reliance. The narrator expresses disdain for those who pretend to be tough ('Ta pagando de lock a postura não é marra') and highlights the hypocrisy of people who ask for help but never offer any in return ('Vagabundo pedindo e nunca me deu nada'). This reflects a broader sentiment of distrust and the necessity of relying on oneself in a world where others may not have your back. The mention of 'olhos vermelhos de ódio' (red eyes of hatred) and 'fumaça da cor do flamengo' (smoke the color of Flamengo) adds a layer of intensity and anger, further emphasizing the emotional toll of this lifestyle.

Additionally, the song explores the duality of life, with references to both divine guidance ('Deus, sempre a cima de tudo') and the dangerous, unpredictable nature of existence ('A vida é uma roleta russa'). This juxtaposition highlights the constant tension between hope and despair, faith and fear. The narrator's plea for divine intervention to avoid violence ('Peço pra Deus que nunca me faça tirar da cintura') underscores the precariousness of their situation and the ever-present threat of conflict. Through its gritty and unfiltered lyrics, 'Ninguém Viu Ninguém Vê' offers a poignant glimpse into the struggles and resilience of those living on the fringes of society.
