Mercê (feat. Menor MC e Kroos)

The song 'Mercê' by Dfideliz, featuring Menor MC and Kroos, is a vivid portrayal of the artist's journey from a challenging past to a successful present, marked by wealth and fame. The lyrics oscillate between themes of hedonism, personal achievement, and the stark realities of life as an artist who has emerged from a life of hardship. The song's title, 'Mercê,' is a reference to a Mercedes-Benz, a symbol of luxury and success, which is a recurring motif in the song, representing the artist's newfound status.

The lyrics describe a lifestyle filled with parties, material wealth, and casual relationships, with references to drugs ('md' likely referring to MDMA) and alcohol as part of the high life. However, there's also a narrative of personal growth and transformation. Dfideliz reflects on his past, mentioning how he left home at 16 and made a fortune through his music. He contrasts his former life with his current success, suggesting that his music is now his 'drug,' spreading his influence far and wide, even to Europe. The song also touches on the challenges of being black and successful, highlighting the systemic barriers that he has had to overcome.

Despite the celebratory tone, there's an undercurrent of caution and awareness of the dangers that come with fame. Dfideliz mentions the need for security, such as a bulletproof car, and the presence of armed friends, indicating that success doesn't erase the threats from his past. The song is a complex mix of pride in his achievements and the ongoing vigilance required to maintain his position. It's a reminder that even at the height of success, one's origins and the struggles faced are never entirely left behind.
