Vida

Eneyser's song "Vida" delves deep into the struggles and harsh realities of life, painting a vivid picture of a world filled with chaos, despair, and a relentless search for meaning. The lyrics open with stark imagery of absurd deaths and lives dominated by drugs, setting a somber tone. The artist describes waking up with dark circles under his eyes, a metaphor for the weariness and disillusionment that comes from confronting harsh truths. He feels like a stranger, a vagabond in a world without direction, yearning for freedom, justice, and love, yet constantly hitting rock bottom.

The chorus, or estribillo, captures the essence of his quest: seeking the impossible amidst a storm, looking for answers, and finding a place to hide and dry his tears. The repetition of not needing to look back or find solace in the calm sea signifies a loss of comfort in familiar places. The wounds he carries are deep, and time alone cannot heal them. This moment of vulnerability, where he feels like crying when no one is watching, highlights the internal struggle and the weight of his emotional burden.

The second verse continues to explore the themes of violence, depression, and the impact of societal issues on individuals. The mention of bloodshed in favelas, violence in schools, and the sleepless nights of parents underscores the pervasive nature of suffering. The artist reflects on the futility of trying to distract oneself from hatred and the illusion of happiness that people cling to. He draws a parallel to Christ, feeling like a slave with metaphorical nails, and expresses his frustration and anger at the world's injustices. The song ends on a note of hope, with a promise to paint an oasis of hope tomorrow, even if today he can only express his despair.
