AmarElo (Sample: Sujeito de Sorte - Belchior) (feat. Pabllo Vittar e Majur)

Emicida's 'AmarElo' is a powerful song that intertwines personal struggle, resilience, and hope. The song begins with a sample from the Brazilian singer-songwriter Belchior's 'Sujeito de Sorte,' which sets a tone of overcoming adversity. The lyrics 'Presentemente eu posso me considerar um sujeito de sorte' (Currently, I can consider myself a lucky person) suggest a shift from past hardships to a present state of gratitude and strength. Emicida builds on this theme by reflecting on his own experiences, stating 'Ano passado eu morri, mas esse ano eu não morro' (Last year I died, but this year I won't die), symbolizing a rebirth and determination to survive despite past challenges.

The song's verses delve deeper into Emicida's personal journey and the broader struggles faced by those in marginalized communities. He speaks of bleeding too much and crying 'pra cachorro' (an expression meaning 'a lot'), indicating intense emotional pain. Yet, there's a clear message of not giving up, of pushing through the pain and emerging stronger. Emicida uses vivid imagery and metaphors, such as comparing himself to water that flows between rocks, to convey his adaptability and perseverance. The references to Ayurveda and the struggle to find Nirvana suggest a search for balance and enlightenment amidst chaos.

Towards the end of the song, Emicida shifts the focus from his scars and past to his voice and the present. He urges listeners not to let their pain define them, but rather to let their experiences be a part of a larger narrative of survival and victory. The outro serves as a call to action for listeners to rise above their circumstances, to chase their dreams, and to see themselves on the podium of success. 'AmarElo' is not just a personal anthem for Emicida, but a universal message of hope and resilience for anyone facing adversity.
