Só Se Vive Uma Vez (feat. Monsta)

NGA's song 'Só Se Vive Uma Vez (feat. Monsta)' is a raw and unfiltered portrayal of life's hardships and the resilience required to navigate them. The lyrics open with a stark depiction of financial and legal troubles, setting a tone of urgency and struggle. The repeated phrase 'Só se vive uma vez' (You only live once) serves as both a reminder and a rallying cry, emphasizing the importance of making the most out of life despite its challenges.

In his verse, NGA delves into the responsibilities and pressures of providing for his family, highlighting the sacrifices and moral compromises that come with it. He paints a vivid picture of a life where material possessions are transient, and the struggle for survival is constant. The line 'Põe comida nessa boca antes que ela vá pra'ró trombone' (Put food in that mouth before it goes to the trombone) metaphorically underscores the urgency of feeding one's family before they fall into deeper trouble. This imagery is powerful, reflecting the harsh realities faced by many in similar situations.

NGA's references to his 'tropa' (crew) and the shared experiences of hardship and resilience underscore the importance of community and support. The repeated refrain 'Só se vive uma vez' serves as a mantra, reinforcing the idea that despite the difficulties, one must continue to fight and persevere. The song's gritty realism and unflinching honesty make it a poignant reflection on the struggles of life and the strength required to overcome them.
