Embracing Tradition and Respect: The Heart of Gildo de Freitas' 'Eu Reconheço Que Sou Um Grosso'

Gildo de Freitas' song 'Eu Reconheço Que Sou Um Grosso' is a heartfelt ode to his upbringing, values, and the cultural traditions that shaped him. The title, which translates to 'I Recognize That I Am Rude,' sets the tone for a candid self-reflection. Gildo acknowledges his rough edges but emphasizes that his demeanor is rooted in a life of hard work and respect. He contrasts his practical education from the 'school of life' with formal schooling, suggesting that his experiences have endowed him with a different kind of wisdom and culture.

The lyrics delve into Gildo's early life, where he worked diligently to support his family and found joy in labor. He reminisces about his youth, where any job was a source of fun and fulfillment. His passion for singing, which he discovered while working in the fields, is portrayed as a natural talent and a cherished tradition. This connection to his roots is further highlighted by his pride in maintaining his cultural heritage, particularly through traditional dances and the customs of his community.

Gildo's deep respect for tradition and societal norms is evident in his description of the CTG (Centro de Tradições Gaúchas), a cultural center dedicated to preserving the customs of the Gaúcho people. He praises the CTG for its adherence to decency and respect, contrasting it with modern behaviors that he views as disrespectful. Gildo's call to the youth to join the CTG and experience its values firsthand underscores his belief in the importance of preserving cultural heritage and fostering a sense of community. The song is a powerful reminder of the beauty and significance of tradition, respect, and hard work in shaping one's identity and values.
