50/50

Gusttavo Lima's song '50/50' delves into the complex and often conflicting emotions of love and freedom. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a man whose heart is torn between two worlds. On one side, he experiences the warmth and comfort of a loving relationship, characterized by intimate moments like watching horror movies at home and cuddling in bed. This half of his life is filled with affection and the reassurance of being loved, as his partner expresses her love for him.

However, the other half of his life is a stark contrast. During the weekends, he transforms into a carefree, wild spirit, indulging in the nightlife and engaging in casual encounters. This part of his life is marked by a sense of liberation and excitement, as he embraces a 'vida louca' or 'crazy life.' The juxtaposition of these two halves highlights the internal struggle he faces, as he tries to balance his desire for stability and love with his need for freedom and adventure.

The chorus encapsulates this internal conflict, as he admits that his heart is divided equally between his partner and his wild escapades. He acknowledges that he cannot choose one over the other, as both aspects are integral to his identity. This duality is a common theme in many people's lives, reflecting the universal struggle to find harmony between commitment and independence. Gusttavo Lima's '50/50' resonates with listeners who grapple with similar dilemmas, making it a relatable and thought-provoking piece.
