Tiro Pra Cima

In 'Tiro Pra Cima,' Léo e Raphael deliver a vibrant and confident anthem that celebrates the carefree and audacious lifestyle of the modern Brazilian cowboy. The song's lyrics paint a picture of a night filled with music, camaraderie, and a touch of bravado. The opening lines, where the singer mentions sleeping with his viola, set the tone for a life deeply intertwined with music and tradition. This connection to the viola, a traditional Brazilian string instrument, underscores the cultural roots and authenticity of the artist's lifestyle.

The song's chorus and verses are filled with a playful defiance against those who underestimate or criticize them. The phrase 'nóis ta muito mais afiado, que língua de sogra' (we are sharper than a mother-in-law's tongue) humorously conveys their readiness and sharpness in life. The mention of 'cantadas de pedreiro' (catcalls) contrasts with the more refined and charming approach of the 'violeiros' (guitar players), highlighting a sense of pride in their unique style and approach to life and romance.

The imagery of 'pega uma, duas, três, quatro meninas' (picking up one, two, three, four girls) and 'da ate tiro pra cima' (even shooting up in the air) adds to the song's depiction of a wild, carefree night. This bravado is not just about romantic conquests but also about living life to the fullest and not caring about societal judgments. The repeated assertion that 'quem quiser nóis tem que ser assim memo' (whoever wants us has to be like this) reinforces a strong sense of identity and self-acceptance, making 'Tiro Pra Cima' a celebration of individuality and the joy of living authentically.
