Tuas Verdades

In 'Tuas Verdades,' Ulisses Guedes delivers a heartfelt plea for spiritual transformation and honesty. The song's lyrics are a direct appeal to a higher power, referred to as 'Oh pai amado' (Oh beloved father), asking for the removal of human strength that prevents the singer from fully surrendering. This surrender is not just physical but emotional and spiritual, as the singer seeks to be prostrated, a position of humility and submission. The repetition of the phrase 'Eu vou continuar a te ouvir' (I will continue to listen to you) underscores a commitment to remain receptive to divine truths, even when they are difficult to hear and cause emotional turmoil.

The song's chorus emphasizes the need for change and the rejection of falsehoods. The lines 'Não da mais pra viver assim' (I can't live like this anymore) and 'Não da mais pra mentir' (I can't lie anymore) reflect a deep dissatisfaction with the current state of existence. This dissatisfaction drives the singer to become 'uma porta aberta escancarada' (a wide-open door) for the divine presence, inviting transformation and the end of an old, unfulfilling story. The imagery of being an open door suggests vulnerability and readiness to receive whatever changes are necessary.

Ulisses Guedes uses powerful metaphors to describe the desired transformation. The request to 'Pega o meu coração e desfaz todo o nó' (Take my heart and undo all the knots) and 'Esbagaça o meu caráter me reduz a pó' (Shatter my character, reduce me to dust) speaks to a profound desire for purification and renewal. This process is not gentle; it involves breaking down the old self to make way for a new, more authentic existence. The song's repetitive structure and earnest tone create a sense of urgency and sincerity, making 'Tuas Verdades' a compelling call for spiritual awakening and personal growth.
