Silas
Vivendo do Ócio Lyrics

The song "Silas" by Vivendo do Ócio opens with the singer expressing his reluctance to harm anyone, instead hoping to move on from past wrongdoing with neither remorse nor animosity. He simply wants to keep going, thinking about a future where these negative feelings have been left behind. The chorus repeats the phrase "Se essa maré me der um caldo" which roughly translates to "If this tide knocks me down" or "If I take a spill". The song seems to address the idea of taking risks and making choices, acknowledging that sometimes things don't go as planned but that it's important to keep moving forward. The lyrics suggest that we can't always control what happens to us, but we can choose how we respond.

The imagery of the tide and water can be interpreted in a few ways - perhaps it represents the unpredictability of life, or the sense of surrender that comes with taking a leap of faith. The lines "Ganho meu dinheiro e nem vejo a cor / É azar no jogo e também no amor" (I make my money and don't even see its color / It's bad luck in both the game and in love) also suggest a sense of being swept along by external forces, with the singer acknowledging that some things are beyond his control. However, the refrain stating "Não escolho tudo que eu faço / Só espero que o agora aconteça" (I don't choose everything I do / I just hope the present happens) shows a sense of agency and accountability despite the uncertainty that comes with taking risks.
