Fé Nenhuma

Engenheiros do Hawaii's song 'Fé Nenhuma' is a powerful expression of disillusionment and skepticism. The repeated refrain 'Não levo fé nenhuma em nada!' (I have no faith in anything!) sets the tone for the entire song, highlighting a deep sense of mistrust and disenchantment with various aspects of society. The lyrics reflect a rejection of both traditional and revolutionary ideologies, suggesting that the singer finds no solace or truth in either.

The song critiques the blind faith people place in media and political movements. The lines 'Eu sei que você acredita / Nas notícias do jornal' (I know you believe in the news) and 'Você quer me pôr no agito / No movimento estudantil' (You want to get me involved in the student movement) reveal a disdain for those who unquestioningly follow what they are told. The singer's irritation and nausea towards these beliefs underscore a broader critique of societal norms and the superficiality of popular movements.

Furthermore, the song delves into personal disillusionment. The singer's refusal to believe in the future of Brazil and the rejection of living by salary or illusion ('Eu não vivo de salário / Eu não vivo de ilusão') reflect a profound sense of hopelessness. This personal skepticism is not just about the external world but also about the individual's place within it. The song's raw and honest lyrics resonate with anyone who has felt disconnected from societal expectations and disillusioned by the promises of both the past and the future.
