Vá Pensando
Nei Van Sória Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Um pouco de amor ainda tenho prá dar
Um pouco de paz ainda nos rodeia
Ainda que a gente tenha que lutar
Contudo nós seguimos o nosso caminho
Contudo nós seguimos aprendendo a lição
Que nada, oh! nada vai mudar o destino
Vá pensando
Vá pensando
Em mexer a sua bunda do lugar
Mas já tem gente falando em liberar a maconha
Já estava mais que na hora, legalize já!
Nada, nada que esses 300 picaretas façam
Vai atrapalhar o que já estar prá rolar
Vá pensando
Vá pensando
Em mexer a sua bunda do lugar.
The first verse of "Vá Pensando" by Nei Van Soria reflects on the singer's personal state of being, noting that there is still some blood and love left in him, as well as some peace still surrounding him, even though he acknowledges that they must continue to fight for it. The second half of the verse acknowledges the difficulties they continue to face, yet they persevere and continue to learn lessons along the way.
The chorus of the song urges the listener to think and take action, to stop being complacent, and to move forward. It is a call to action, as implied by the line "em mexer a sua bunda do lugar," which translates to "move your butt from its place." The second verse turns to a different issue, the legalization of marijuana, with the singer stating that it's been long overdue and that nothing the politicians do will stop what is already happening.
Overall, the song is an anthem for action, encouraging the listener to stop waiting for change and to take matters into their own hands. The lyrics suggest that while there are challenges ahead and things may not change unless we actively work towards it, there is still hope and reason to keep fighting.
