Conversa Fiada
Bamdamel Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Vamos cantar, vamos cantar, vamos mostrar
Vamos mostrar pra todos o nosso cantar
Pois a corda só quebra pro lado de cá
Não quero mais essa conversa fiada
Não quero mais ouvir essa piada
Que o brasil é o país do futuro
Ei galera, vamos nessa
Nessa onda quero arrebentar
Não quero mais ouvir essa conversa
Papo de deixa disso, ou de deixa pra lá
Consciência anda faltando
E más notícias andam mergulhando
Pois hoje chega eu quero cantar
Que o povo que canta não me deixa calar
In Bamdamel's song "Conversa Fiada", the chorus encourages the listeners to sing and show off their abilities to everyone, claiming that their side won't give up easily. The first verse, however, speaks out against empty talk and false promises regarding Brazil's future. The artist's frustration with this sentiment is exemplified in the line "Pois a corda só quebra pro lado de cá" which roughly translates to "Because the rope only breaks on this side", suggesting that the burden of unfulfilled promises falls on the people of Brazil.
The second verse continues with the theme of wanting action rather than talk, and the singer urges listeners to join them in their push for change. The line "Consciência anda faltando" ("Consciousness is lacking") implies that people need to become more aware of their surroundings and the state of their country. The verse ends with the assertion that the people who sing won't let the singer be silenced.
"Conversa Fiada" is a powerful call to action, reminding people that change can only happen through action and not just words. Bamdamel's frustration with empty promises and lack of action is palpable, and the song serves as a reminder that people have the power to create change if they work together.
