The Smoky Veil of Existential Discontent

The song "nunca mais vou ser CLT" by Link do Zap delves into the artist's personal struggles with the mundanity of daily life and the disillusionment with the traditional work system in Brazil, where 'CLT' refers to the 'Consolidação das Leis do Trabalho', the main body of labor laws in the country. The lyrics paint a picture of someone who has become desensitized to the harmful aspects of their life, such as the smell of cigarettes, which serves as a metaphor for the numbing effect of routine and dissatisfaction.

The protagonist expresses a deep sense of frustration with their job and the expectations placed upon them by society. The act of smoking, especially at midnight, becomes a symbol of rebellion and a temporary escape from the pressures of life. The mention of 'Carlton', a brand of cigarettes, could be seen as a specific indulgence that represents the small, harmful pleasures that the protagonist clings to. The song also touches on the idea of performance, both in the workplace and in life, where the protagonist feels like a 'bobo da corte' or 'court jester', entertaining others while hiding their own sorrow.

The closing verses of the song reflect a broader existential contemplation. The artist acknowledges the futility and fear of living authentically, yet also recognizes the inevitability of life's cycle. There is a call to not hold on too tightly to existence, as everything has a beginning and an end. This philosophical resignation suggests a desire to accept life's transient nature and perhaps find peace in the midst of chaos.
