Preciso Aprender a Só Ser

Gilberto Gil Gilberto Gil

I Need to Learn to Just Be

You know, people
There's so much for us to know
What to sing, how to walk, where to go
What to say, what to keep quiet, who to love

You know, people
There's so much that makes me feel awkward
It's just me alone with this knot in my chest
Already undone in tears that I struggle to hide

You know, people
I know that deep down, the problem is just ours
And it's only the heart that says no, when the mind
Tries to take us to the house of suffering

And when you hear a samba song
Like: I need to learn to be alone
React and listen to the heart respond
I need to learn to just be

You know, people
There's so much that I don't even want to know!
