Our cryfrom Guilherme Gê (Hecto singer), in collaboration with Déa Moura, is a multi-faceted song.

The lyrics portray the harsh Brazilian reality, but also celebrate freedom. It reflects on the challenge of dealing with the avalanche of daily information and the need to maintain control of life to make conscious choices.

“I started writing these lyrics many years ago in collaboration with Déa Moura. It was born during good conversations over wine, Chico Buarque and Fernando Pessoa. These influences stand out in the verses: “Boy, you don’t understand this world / of chaos, that rotates a thousand times a year / It’s better to take off your hat and close your eyes / So as not to lose remote control of your life”, comment Ge.

Ney Matogrosso and Hecto: the lyrics portray the harsh Brazilian reality, but also celebrate freedom.

“After a long time, I rediscovered the connection with the song, thinking about Ney Matogrosso’s voice and creating other parts and new nuances, which are also part of Hecto’s sound and identity. When Ney recorded the voice in the studio, everything became very clear. He always opens new windows, new interpretative paths, he always takes the song to another level”, completes the singer and composer.
