Me Usa (feat. Kevi Jonny)

Mariana Fagundes' song 'Me Usa,' featuring Kevi Jonny, delves into the complex emotions of a tumultuous relationship. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a love that is both intoxicating and painful. The opening lines describe a sense of betrayal and disillusionment, as the protagonist feels led on and then abandoned. The metaphor of being given a 'bath of illusion' and having 'cold water thrown on the heart' captures the sudden and harsh reality check that follows a period of blissful ignorance.

Despite the hurt, the protagonist finds themselves unable to sever ties with their lover. The repeated refrain 'Então me usa, rasga minha blusa' (So use me, tear my blouse) suggests a willingness to endure physical and emotional pain for the fleeting moments of pleasure that the relationship provides. This paradoxical desire highlights the addictive nature of toxic relationships, where the highs are so high that they overshadow the lows, making it difficult to walk away.

The song also touches on themes of self-awareness and resignation. The protagonist acknowledges that their lover's primary skill is giving pleasure, and they seem to accept this limited role in their life. The line 'Já que é só isso que cê sabe fazer' (Since that's all you know how to do) underscores a sense of fatalism, as if the protagonist has resigned themselves to the cyclical nature of their relationship. The energetic and upbeat musical style contrasts sharply with the underlying sadness of the lyrics, creating a poignant juxtaposition that resonates with listeners.
