Unwavering Faith: The Immutable Design of God
Tia Edy's song "Deus Nunca Errou" ("God Never Made a Mistake") is a powerful declaration of faith and traditional values. The lyrics emphasize the belief that gender roles are divinely assigned and immutable. The song opens with the lines, "Sou menina, isso nunca vai mudar" ("I am a girl, this will never change") and "Sou menino, isso nunca vai mudar" ("I am a boy, this will never change"), reinforcing the idea that one's gender is a fixed aspect of their identity, as designed by God. The use of colors—pink for girls and blue for boys—along with traditional gender-specific activities like playing with dolls or cars, further underscores this belief.
The song also addresses contemporary debates about gender identity, suggesting that modern ideas about gender fluidity are attempts to "confundir a verdade do senhor" ("confuse the truth of the Lord"). Tia Edy asserts that these new ideologies are contrary to divine truth, as established in the biblical creation story of Adam and Eve. The lyrics, "No princípio, Deus criou Adão e Eva" ("In the beginning, God created Adam and Eve"), serve as a reminder of this traditional narrative, which the song argues should not be altered or questioned.
The chorus, "Deus nunca errou te fez com muito amor" ("God never made a mistake, He made you with much love"), is a comforting affirmation that each person is created perfectly by God. This message is intended to instill a sense of self-worth and divine purpose in the listener. The song concludes with a prayer for divine protection over the current generation and the nation, emphasizing a collective commitment to uphold these traditional values. Through its lyrics, "Deus Nunca Errou" becomes a rallying cry for those who believe in the unchanging nature of God's design and the importance of defending these beliefs in contemporary society.
