Promessa

Eli Soares' song 'Promessa' is a powerful anthem of faith and perseverance. The lyrics speak to the experience of holding onto dreams and beliefs even when others doubt or dismiss them. The opening lines, 'Só quem já sonhou / Sabe o valor de acreditar / Quando ninguém mais crer,' highlight the unique understanding and value that dreamers place on faith, especially when they are the only ones who believe in their vision. This sets the tone for a narrative of resilience and unwavering trust in a higher power.

The song draws a parallel to the biblical story of David and Goliath, emphasizing the idea of overcoming seemingly insurmountable challenges with faith and determination. 'Só quem já lutou / Sabe o que é derrubar um gigante / Com uma pedra e uma funda nas mãos' illustrates that true strength comes from belief and the courage to face giants, both literal and metaphorical. This metaphor serves to inspire listeners to confront their own challenges with the same spirit of bravery and trust in divine guidance.

Central to the song is the theme of divine promise and faithfulness. The repeated lines, 'A promessa é maior do que eu / E o Deus que me prometeu / É fiel para cumprir,' reinforce the message that the promises made by God are greater than any individual and that God's faithfulness is unwavering. This refrain serves as a reminder that even when the path is unclear, faith acts as a compass, guiding believers towards the fulfillment of their dreams and promises. The song's repetition of this message underscores its importance and encourages listeners to maintain their faith, regardless of external circumstances.
