No Future
Cirrhosis Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Where present, past and future are always wrong
Everyone is excluded and wrong done
Too much continues as always in our history
A native land that oscillates between past and present
Everything that was made yesterday is already forgotten
You don't know if you are yourselves
If your identity is false or true
That it is misery, war and disaster
'Cause the rich ones earn everything
And the poor they gain nothing
Stop. Imagine. Perhaps you could believe
That everything here is too stupid
Don't believe in the liers
Because your future is made by you

They acknowledge that everyone is excluded and that history is doomed to repeat itself. The lyrics address the sense of uncertainty amongst the people, and how they are not even sure of their identity. The situation in Brazil is described as a mixture of misery, war, and disaster.
The song also highlights the economic disparity between the rich and the poor, where the rich get everything while the poor get nothing. The lyrics encourage the listener to stop and imagine, suggesting that there is a need for people to recognize the issues and the lies that may be told to them. The song concludes with a message of hope, stating that the future is made by the people.
