The Relentless Struggle: A Journey Through 'War' by Filipe Ret

Filipe Ret's song 'War' delves into the relentless struggle of life, portraying a vivid picture of the constant battle for success and self-fulfillment. The opening lines emphasize the importance of dreams as a means to adapt to reality, suggesting that the less one adapts to reality, the more crucial it becomes to persist in one's dreams. This sets the tone for the song, highlighting the harshness of reality as a 'glorious cemetery of dreams,' where many aspirations are buried.

The lyrics reflect Ret's determination to build his 'castle' by stacking his earnings, symbolizing his relentless pursuit of success. He mentions being born with the 'God of war' within him, indicating an inherent drive and resilience. The desire to be happy is dismissed as a goal for the weak, suggesting that true strength lies in the relentless pursuit of one's ambitions. This warrior mentality is further emphasized by his declaration of self-reliance and the need to believe in oneself.

Ret's lyrics also touch on the duality of his existence, where he balances the harsh realities of life with moments of indulgence and pleasure. The imagery of 'lighting the lighter' and being 'high all day' contrasts with the violent undertones of 'shooting first and asking questions later.' This juxtaposition highlights the complexity of his life, where moments of peace are intertwined with the constant threat of conflict. The recurring theme of war, both literal and metaphorical, underscores the idea that battles never truly end; they persist until death. This relentless struggle is a central theme, reflecting the ongoing fight for survival and success in a world that is often unforgiving.

The song's chorus, repeating 'War, war, war,' serves as a powerful reminder of the continuous nature of these battles. Ret's portrayal of life as an unending war resonates with many who face similar struggles, making the song a poignant reflection on the human condition and the ceaseless pursuit of one's dreams.
