Será

Massaru's song 'Será' delves into the complexities of love, desire, and the harsh realities of life in a challenging environment. The lyrics reflect a young man's internal conflict as he navigates his feelings for a woman while dealing with the pressures of his surroundings. The repeated question, 'Será que você pensa em mim igual eu penso em você?' (Do you think of me the way I think of you?), highlights his uncertainty and longing for reciprocated affection. This vulnerability is juxtaposed with his bravado and focus on material success, as he mentions conquering money and power.

The song also touches on the protagonist's relentless drive, a trait ingrained in him by his upbringing. He mentions that he doesn't know how to stop running, a metaphor for his constant hustle and the survival mentality instilled in him by a life filled with conflict, as indicated by the line 'Da onde eu vim só guerra na TV' (Where I come from, there's only war on TV). This background shapes his worldview and his approach to relationships, where he seeks intensity and excitement rather than calm and stability.

Moreover, 'Será' addresses the societal pressures and systemic oppression faced by the protagonist. The line 'os homi da lei tá querendo oprimir' (the lawmen are trying to oppress) speaks to the external forces that add to his struggles. Despite these challenges, he finds solace and escape in his romantic encounters, which he describes with vivid imagery and a sense of rebellion. The song paints a picture of a young man caught between his desires and the harsh realities of his environment, seeking connection and meaning in a world that often feels hostile and unforgiving.
