Quebra-Mar
Charlie Brown JR. Lyrics

The song "Quebra-Mar" by Charlie Brown Jr. is about finding one's identity and staying true to oneself despite changes in life. The opening lines "Nós somos o Charlie Brown" establish the band's identity and pride in their name. The next lines, "Eu não vou mudar mas minha vida agora é outra" suggest that while the band members won't change who they are, their lives have seen changes. They state they will try to understand what others are saying, but only live for what is important to them - hence the repetition of "vivo por isso" (I live for this). The next few lines paint a picture of their life - concrete streets, noble blood, and the ocean. They want the listener to believe in them and the luxurious lifestyle they describe, with money in hand and a carefree attitude.

However, the lyrics take a turn when they mention a corrupt system that has affected them. The lines "O sistema falido, já aconteceu comigo" (The corrupt system, it's already happened to me) suggest that they have faced challenges as a part of this system. Despite this, they stand strong and take sides, stating "eu não fico dividido, eu sei porque tomo partido" (I do not divide, I know why I take a side). They stay true to themselves and their values, despite what the system throws their way.

The closing lines "O que não pode é essa situação/Do que eu não gosto que eu me livro e digo não" (What cannot happen is this situation/Of what I don't like, I get rid of and say no) reiterate their belief in staying true to themselves and not tolerating situations they don't agree with. Overall, "Quebra-Mar" is a song about finding one's identity and standing strong, even in the face of adversity.
