Sempre Assim

Jota Quest's song 'Sempre Assim' delves into the repetitive nature of daily life and the quest for meaning and happiness amidst the routine. The lyrics open with the protagonist waking up and immediately reflecting on their responsibilities and the things they need to address. This sets the tone for a day filled with tasks and the constant hustle of life. The phrase 'Todo dia é assim' (Every day is like this) underscores the monotony and predictability of daily routines, yet it also hints at a sense of acceptance and determination to keep moving forward.

The song's chorus, 'Será que todo dia vai ser sempre assim?' (Will every day always be like this?), poses a rhetorical question that reflects a universal human concern about the future and the fear of being stuck in an unchanging cycle. Despite this, the lyrics also express a desire for initiative and humor, suggesting that the protagonist seeks to infuse their life with positivity and resilience. The line 'Tô correndo contra o tempo' (I'm racing against time) captures the urgency and pressure of modern life, while the reassurance that 'Certamente ela virá' (Surely it will come) offers a glimmer of hope and patience.

In the latter part of the song, the protagonist reminisces about past relationships and the potential of future connections, highlighting a sense of nostalgia and longing. The mention of 'amigos que eu ainda não fiz' (friends I haven't made yet) and 'tudo que ainda há' (everything that still exists) points to an optimistic outlook on life and the endless possibilities it holds. The song concludes on a hopeful note, with the protagonist embracing the idea that every day can indeed be 'sempre assim' (always like this), filled with faith and optimism, suggesting that the routine can be a source of comfort and stability rather than a burden.
