Bolada
Kelly Key Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tô bolada contigo, presta atenção
Tô bolada contigo, presta atenção

Tô cansado tô com sono
Não mete essa, não
Tô tristinho tô sofrendo
Não mete essa não
Dá um tempo

Você só quer ficar
Abaixa esse fogo e vamos conversar

Não, eu não sei, não
Eu não sei, não
Eu não sei se ainda posso confiar em você
Seu cênico

Me entreguei pra você, mas não tive valor
Preferiu, procurar aventura
Fico pensando
Quanto tempo perdi, quantas vezes senti
Quantos sonhos deixei

Mas tá tranquilo paixão
Se quiser ficar comigo, agora é do me jeito

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Kelly Key's song "Bolada" discuss the emotions of being upset with someone and feeling like they're not fully present in the relationship. The phrase "Tô bolada contigo, presta atenção" is repeated throughout the song, translating to "I'm angry with you, pay attention." The singer describes feeling tired, sad, and hurt, asking their partner to ease off and have a conversation rather than just trying to hook up.

The chorus is repetitive, with the singer questioning if they can still trust the other person, using the word "cênico" which means "theatrical" or "phony." They express feelings of vulnerability, having given themselves to the other person only to feel unappreciated and ignored. However, the singer also asserts themselves, saying that if the other person wants to be with them, it has to be on their terms.

Overall, the song speaks to the challenges of communication and trust in a romantic relationship, with a spirit of defiance and self-assuredness in the face of disappointment.
