Realismo Convincente
Mombojó Lyrics

The song "Realismo Convincente" by Mombojó is a reflection on the human desire to escape reality and become someone else. The repeated phrase "Eu quero ser você" (I want to be you) serves as a metaphor for this desire, as the singer longs to leave behind their own problems and inhabit someone else's life. The following verses highlight the singer's frustration with their current situation and their desire for change. They want to stop lying to themselves and save the world, even if it means not gaining anything from it.

The chorus "Eu vou tentar" (I'll try) speaks to the singer's determination to make a change, even if it seems difficult or unlikely to succeed. The next verse takes a turn and becomes more abstract, with the singer stating that they are confusing the listener in order to clarify their point. They are shedding light on an issue that may be difficult to see, even if it means blinding themselves in the process. The final line, "Estou ficando cego pra poder guiar" (I'm becoming blind in order to guide), sums up the song's message: sometimes we need to lose sight of ourselves to find a way forward.
