The lyrics suggest a sense of contentment and peace amidst the chaos of existence, as the artist expresses satisfaction with simple pleasures like a kiss from a loved one. The repeated line 'E eu só sei que esta vida é louca' (And I only know that this life is crazy) sets the tone for the song, acknowledging the unpredictable nature of life while also embracing it.

The song touches on themes of resilience and gratitude, particularly towards the artist's mother, who is credited with providing courage and overcoming challenges.

The lyrics 'Acredita, o tempo ajuda' (Believe, time helps) underscore the healing power of time and the importance of patience and perseverance.

'Hey e eu já nem sei se sinto / Ou será que sinto em demasia' (Hey and I don't even know if I feel / Or maybe I feel too much) captures the emotional complexity of the artist's experience. The song also pays homage to those who have passed away and those who remain, acknowledging the pain of loss and the bittersweet nature of memories. The artist's declaration of an undying love that transcends even death highlights a deep emotional connection that is both personal and universal.
