Lorenzo
Alanta Lyrics

The lyrics to Alanta's song "Lorenzo" convey a sense of frustration, anger, and disillusionment with society and the political landscape. The opening lines "Me avisaram que hoje não é dia de chorar / Acabaram de encher essa bolsa com merda" suggest a sense of resignation to the negativity and corruption that surrounds us. The blunt language used in "Explicitaram o quão escrota é essa gente toda" emphasizes the singer's disdain for the people and systems they see as toxic and corrupt.

The following lines reflect on the passage of time and the deterioration of society, with the mention of 13 years of calm followed by a turning point marked by the removal of a key figure ("Começou a fuder quando afastaram a mina"). The mention of voting for a new dictatorship and the wish to die before having to face more pain suggest a deep disillusionment with political systems and a sense of despair about the future.

The lyric "Do karma não se escapa essa gente vai alguma hora se fuder" carries a sense of justice and inevitability, hinting that those who have caused harm will eventually face consequences. The lines "Arde mesmo e dói esse peso de empatia sentir" express the emotional weight of empathy and the pain of witnessing and feeling the suffering of others.

The final stanza shifts to a more introspective and personal reflection, with the plea to be seen as a saint, king, or god, and to be kissed as a beloved son or lover. This shift in tone contrasts with the earlier anger and frustration, suggesting a longing for connection, acceptance, and love amidst the chaos and turmoil depicted in the rest of the song. Overall, the lyrics of "Lorenzo" capture a mix of disillusionment, defiance, and vulnerability in the face of societal challenges and personal longing.
