Besta
(Salma Jô | Macloys)

Força
Coragem nessa hora
Levanta e vai embora
Não pague o couvert
Não suporte a cena
Pena
Ninguém merece
Infelizmente a poesia acontece ou não acontece
É forte ou fraca
É bela, feia
É fresca, é velha
É ruim
É besta

Caia
Despenque estatelado
Recolha o lixo, os cacos
Perceba que o melhor
É desistir de tudo
Minta
Finja que estava errado
Que é um resignado
Que sabe que o melhor
É investir com tudo
No artifício
O exercício
O benefício
O vício
De ser besta





Sê besta

Overall Meaning

The song "Besta" by Carne Doce is a deeply reflective and introspective piece that seems to be commenting on the nature of human experience and the expectations that we place on ourselves in relation to that experience. The opening lines of the song set the tone for the rest of the piece, with the singer urging the listener to find strength and courage in difficult times and to move on from whatever is holding them back, whether that is a difficult situation, a toxic relationship or simply the weight of their own thoughts and feelings.


The chorus of the song is particularly interesting, as it seems to be suggesting that the very act of creating and expressing oneself is inherently flawed and perhaps even futile. The lyrics describe poetry as something that can either happen or not, that can be strong or weak, beautiful or ugly, fresh or stale. In doing so, they suggest that there is no objective measure for what is good or bad, successful or unsuccessful, and that any attempt to create something meaningful is ultimately doomed to failure.


The rest of the song continues in a similar vein, with the singer suggesting that the best course of action in the face of this uncertainty and complexity is to simply be a "besta", or a fool. They urge the listener to embrace their foolishness and to stop trying to make sense of the world or to find meaning in their struggles. Instead, they suggest that we should revel in our own delusions and embrace the absurdity of our own existence, even if that means making mistakes, falling down, and picking ourselves back up again.
