He was born to Alcino and Sebastiana Lima in Minas Gerais but grew up in Goiânia, Goiás. In 1998 while he was just 9, he joined as soloist in a choir and gained attention through his interpretation of "É o Amor", composed by Zezé di Camargo & Luciano. Gusttavo cited as some of his main inspirations Gino & Geno, Chitãozinho & Xororó, Bruno & Marrone and Zeze di Camargo.
In 2009, Gusttavo released his first independent studio album called Revelação. In 2010, he signed with Som Livre label and released Inventor dos Amores, as a CD and DVD, with sales of 15,000 copies. The title track was a collaboration with Jorge & Mateus, reaching #24 in the Brazilian Billboard Brasil charts. Based on this initial success, he released the single "Cor de Ouro" that reached #21 in Brazil.
In 2011, Gusttavo released CD and DVD titled Gusttavo Lima e Você which was recorded live in Patos de Minas, on June 3, 2011 during Fenamilho musical event with estimated audience of 60,000 people. The highly popular album reached #7 and was certified platinum. The album produced his definitive hit "Balada" (full title "Balada (Tchê Tcherere Tchê Tchê) based on the famous refrain), which reached #3 in Brazil. The Brazilian football player Neymar played a similar role to that he played in Michel Teló's smash success "Ai se eu te pego" and appeared in many shows with Gusttavo Lima.
In January 2012, he embarked on a first international tour with shows in US Latin markets in Florida, and later on in Atlanta (Georgia), Newark (New Jersey) and Revere (Massachusetts). It was also announced that Gusttavo Lima is releasing another live album in 2012 entitled Atualmente with reported participation of Edson & Hudson, Jorge & Mateus and Eduardo Costa. Release is due in Spring/Summer this year.
Gusttavo is also releasing his hit single "Balada" in European markets following the steps of fellow Brazilian singer Michel Teló.

Gusttavo Lima Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Não me telefone
Por favor, não pergunte por mim
Vê se me esquece e some
Se eu te ver de longe
Viro a cara, finjo que não vi
'Tá doendo lá no fundo
Sem você, eu não consigo mais dormir
Vamos fazer assim
Melhor não me procurar
Porque eu morro de medo de te perdoar
Eu 'to falando mal de você, iê
Que você nunca soube fazer, iê
Cem mil, com quem quiser, eu aposto
Se ela bater o dedo, eu volto
Eu 'to falando mal de você, iê
Que você nunca soube fazer, iê
Cem mil, com quem quiser, eu aposto
Se ela bater o dedo, eu volto
Ela não vale um real
Mas eu adoro
Não fale mais o meu nome
Não me telefone
Por favor, não pergunte por mim
Vê se me esquece e some
Se eu te ver de longe
Viro a cara, finjo que não vi
Mas eu não vou mentir
'Tá doendo lá no fundo
Sem você, eu não consigo mais dormir
Vamos fazer assim
Melhor não me procurar
Porque eu morro de medo de te perdoar
Eu 'to falando mal de você, iê
Que você nunca soube fazer, iê
Cem mil, com quem quiser, eu aposto
Se ela bater o dedo, eu volto
Eu 'to falando mal de você, iê
Que você nunca soube fazer, iê
Cem mil, com quem quiser, eu aposto
Se ela bater o dedo, eu volto
Eu 'to falando mal de você, iê
Que você nunca soube fazer, iê
Cem mil, com quem quiser, eu aposto
Se ela bater o dedo, eu volto
Ela não vale um real
Mas eu adoro
The lyrics of Gusttavo Lima's song "Cem Mil" revolve around a love story that has come to an end. The singer is telling his former lover to not call him or speak his name, and asking her to forget about him and move on. He tries to ignore her, but the pain he feels deep inside prevents him from sleeping. He then warns her not to look for him because he is afraid to forgive her. Despite his feelings, he claims to be speaking ill of her and that she is not worth much, but that he still adores her.
The song communicates the emotions of a man who still loves his ex-partner, but is also furious with her for some reason. He wants to move on but is unable to do so because of the pain he experiences. He tries to appear indifferent and disinterested towards his former lover by focusing on her negative qualities. However, his love for her ultimately prevails, and he acknowledges that she is imperfect, yet he still finds wonder in her. The lyrics of the song convey the complex and often contradictory emotions that people experience when they are grieving a lost love.

Please don't ask about me
Vê se me esquece e some
Just forget about me and disappear

If I see you from afar
Viro a cara, finjo que não vi
I turn away, pretending not to see you
Mas eu não vou mentir

'Tá doendo lá no fundo
It hurts deep down
Sem você, eu não consigo mais dormir
Without you, I can't sleep anymore
Vamos fazer assim

If she snaps her fingers, I'll come back
Ela não vale um real
She's not worth a penny
Mas eu adoro
But I love her anyway
