Super-heróis (feat. Pedro Alvez)
Lucas A.R.T
The Real Heroes Within: A Battle Against Inner Demons
In 'Super-heróis (feat. Pedro Alvez),' Lucas A.R.T. and Pedro Alvez delve into the profound struggles of mental health, self-worth, and societal judgment. The song opens with Lucas A.R.T. expressing the overwhelming nature of depression, a battle that often feels insurmountable. He describes the daily struggle of even getting out of bed and the isolation that comes with feeling misunderstood. The lyrics highlight the harsh judgments and labels society places on individuals, such as being 'too ugly,' 'too dumb,' or 'too poor,' which only exacerbate feelings of inadequacy and alienation.
Pedro Alvez's chorus poignantly underscores the theme of loneliness and the absence of real-life superheroes. He sings about the solitude of dealing with sadness and the harsh reality that no one is coming to save us. This sentiment is a stark reminder that, in the real world, we must often face our battles alone, without the fantastical intervention of superheroes. The repetition of 'não existem super-heróis' (there are no superheroes) drives home the point that the support we seek is often not available in the ways we hope.
However, the song takes a turn towards empowerment and self-realization. Lucas A.R.T. reflects on the importance of acknowledging and expressing one's emotions rather than suppressing them. He emphasizes that the true heroes are those who endure and fight their inner battles daily. The realization that 'existem super-heróis e eles somos nós' (there are superheroes, and they are us) is a powerful message of self-empowerment and resilience. The song ultimately encourages listeners to recognize their strength and capacity to overcome their struggles, positioning themselves as the heroes of their own stories.
