Virei 157

MC Alysson's song "Virei 157" delves into the complexities of unrequited love and the lengths one might go to win someone's affection. The lyrics narrate the story of a man who has tried everything to win over a woman, from buying flowers to giving chocolates. Despite his efforts, she remains uninterested in him, preferring instead to be with men who have a bad-boy image, described as 'bandido' (criminals). This rejection leads the protagonist to a drastic transformation, symbolized by the phrase 'virei 157,' which refers to the Brazilian penal code for robbery. In this context, it metaphorically means he has become a 'heart thief,' trying to capture the attention and affection of the woman he desires by adopting a rebellious persona.

The repetition of the phrase 'só quer se envolver com os amigos que é bandido' emphasizes the woman's preference for a certain type of man, highlighting a societal issue where the allure of danger and rebellion often overshadows genuine affection and effort. The protagonist's transformation into a '157' is a desperate attempt to fit into this mold, suggesting a critique of how societal and cultural influences can push individuals to change their identities in pursuit of love and acceptance.

The song also features a recurring line, 'ela brota e mete mete mete,' which can be interpreted as the woman's assertive and dominant nature in relationships. This line, along with the repeated exclamations of 'ela é foda,' underscores her powerful and captivating presence. The explicit language and vivid imagery used in the lyrics reflect the raw and unfiltered emotions of the protagonist, adding a layer of intensity to the narrative. Through this song, MC Alysson captures the tumultuous journey of love, rejection, and the lengths one might go to in the quest for affection.
