OZEMPIC

Tocanna's song 'OZEMPIC' delves into the pressures and contradictions of modern beauty standards, particularly focusing on the desire for thinness. The repeated plea for 'Ozempic,' a medication often used for weight loss, highlights the lengths to which individuals might go to achieve societal ideals. The repetition of the word 'Ozempic' underscores the obsession and desperation that can accompany the pursuit of a certain body image.

The lyrics also touch on the influence of celebrities and public figures in shaping these beauty standards. The line 'É quem me falou isso foi aquela cantora famosa' suggests that even famous singers, who are often seen as role models, contribute to the perpetuation of these ideals. The song questions the authenticity of these figures, pondering whether they too are using substances like Ozempic to maintain their appearance. This skepticism is further emphasized with the lines 'Eu sei quem usa / De quem abusa,' indicating a critical awareness of the hidden truths behind public personas.

Moreover, the song addresses the internal conflict and societal judgment that come with striving for thinness. Phrases like 'Doce com uva / Leve como pluma' juxtapose the sweetness and lightness associated with being thin against the isolation and silence ('Ficou reclusa? / Por que está muda?'). The lyrics 'Ficou magra mas cabeçuda' suggest that while one may achieve a thin body, it comes at the cost of mental and emotional well-being. Tocanna's 'OZEMPIC' serves as a poignant critique of the unrealistic and often harmful beauty standards that dominate contemporary culture.
