Positividade (feat. MC Bola)
MC Magal
Resilience and Positivity in the Face of Adversity
MC Magal's song 'Positividade,' featuring MC Bola, is a powerful anthem of resilience and positivity. The lyrics delve into the struggles and triumphs of someone who has faced opposition and betrayal but remains steadfast in their journey towards success. The song opens with a reflection on the negativity and envy from others, highlighting the artist's awareness of who truly supports them and who does not. This theme of discernment is crucial, as it underscores the importance of surrounding oneself with genuine allies while distancing from false friends.
The song also touches on the concept of gratitude and integrity. MC Magal emphasizes that he is not one to 'spit on the plate'—a metaphor for not disrespecting or disregarding the opportunities and support he has received. This line speaks volumes about his character and the values he upholds. The repeated phrase 'malandro é malandro e mané é mané' (a clever person is clever, and a fool is a fool) reinforces the idea that people should stay true to their nature and not pretend to be something they are not.
The chorus, 'Toda positividade remando contra a maré' (all positivity rowing against the tide), serves as a powerful reminder that maintaining a positive outlook is often a struggle against the current of negativity. This metaphor beautifully captures the essence of the song, which is about persevering with a positive mindset despite the challenges. The imagery of building a 'castelo da fé' (castle of faith) further illustrates the artist's journey of constructing a life based on faith and resilience, brick by brick, despite the odds.
