O Jogo Já Começou (Sorte Ou Azar) (part. Gutto)

In 'O Jogo Já Começou (Sorte Ou Azar)', Just Girls, featuring Gutto, delve into the thrilling yet nerve-wracking experience of falling in love. The song opens with the protagonist arriving at night, encountering someone who offers them their 'sky'—a metaphor for love and dreams. However, the protagonist initially pretends not to notice, perhaps out of fear or uncertainty. This sets the stage for a narrative filled with tension and anticipation, as the protagonist feels a mix of excitement and apprehension, symbolized by being 'caught by a thread' and feeling a shiver down their spine.

The chorus reveals the central metaphor of the song: love as a game of chance. The protagonist is ready to 'enter the game' but is determined not to lose. They feel the arrival of love and are eager to see if their luck will change. This metaphor extends throughout the song, with references to dice rolling and the game already being in motion. The uncertainty of whether they will be 'captured or liberated' by this love adds to the emotional stakes, making the listener feel the protagonist's vulnerability and hope.

As the song progresses, the relationship deepens, with the protagonist receiving warmth and love, symbolized by 'forgetting time and reason' and the other person entering their heart. Yet, the fear of the unknown persists. The protagonist contemplates the possibility of the horizon darkening and the other person no longer being there, but they resolve to cherish the memories. The repeated refrain of the game already having started and the dice already rolled underscores the inevitability and unpredictability of love, capturing the essence of taking risks and embracing the unknown in the pursuit of emotional connection.
