NINGUÉM ME ENSINOU

Lagum's song 'NINGUÉM ME ENSINOU' delves into the complexities of young adulthood, capturing the essence of navigating dreams, expectations, and the realities of life. The lyrics reflect a sense of introspection and self-discovery, as the protagonist grapples with the pressures and uncertainties that come with being in their twenties. The opening lines, 'A vida é boa pra carai, nem sei por que eu tô chorando,' set the tone for a journey marked by emotional highs and lows, despite the overall positivity of life.

The recurring question, 'Quem te ensinou a sonhar?' serves as a poignant reminder of the innate human desire to dream and aspire, even when the path is unclear. This line underscores the theme of self-reliance and the realization that no one can truly teach you how to dream; it's a personal journey. The protagonist's reflection on missing home and the support of their mother adds a layer of vulnerability, highlighting the emotional sacrifices made in pursuit of one's dreams.

The song also challenges societal norms and expectations, particularly with the line, 'Mas se garotos não choram, alguém diz o que eu sou?' This challenges the stereotype that men should not show vulnerability, asserting the right to express emotions freely. The imagery of being 'o Sol da meia-noite e a Lua cheia de manhã' symbolizes the protagonist's unique identity and the blend of contradictions that make them who they are. Ultimately, 'NINGUÉM ME ENSINOU' is a celebration of individuality, resilience, and the relentless pursuit of one's dreams, despite the lack of a clear roadmap.
