Acreditar

Diogo Nogueira's song 'Acreditar' delves into the emotional journey of moving on from a past relationship. The lyrics express a firm stance on not believing in rekindling old flames or starting over. The protagonist acknowledges that life has moved forward, and the other person has been left behind, unaware of the passage of time and the changes it has brought. This sentiment is encapsulated in the lines 'A vida foi em frente / E você simplesmente / Não viu que ficou pra trás,' highlighting the disconnect between the two individuals' experiences.

The song also touches on themes of deception and realization. The protagonist questions whether they were deceived, as the other person seemed oblivious to the time slipping away and the emotional toll it took. The imagery of time carrying the protagonist away while delivering immense pain to the other person is powerful, suggesting a deep sense of betrayal and sorrow. This is evident in the lines 'Não viu o tempo que passou / Não viu que ele me carregava / E a saudade lhe entregava / O aval da imensa dor.'

Ultimately, 'Acreditar' is a declaration of peace and self-acceptance. The protagonist has found solace and tranquility in their current state, choosing to ignore the past that the other person brings up. The repetition of 'E eu que agora moro / nos braços da paz' emphasizes the newfound peace and the decision to leave the past behind. Diogo Nogueira's soulful delivery and poignant lyrics make 'Acreditar' a powerful anthem of moving on and embracing the present.
