Sim e Não

Airam Capuani's song 'Sim e Não' delves into the complexities of identity, perception, and the choices that shape our lives. The lyrics oscillate between affirmations and negations, reflecting the duality of existence. The repeated phrases 'Tudo é sim, Tudo é não' and 'Dia sim, Dia não' suggest that reality is subjective and depends on one's perspective. This theme is further explored through the protagonist's introspective conversations with his reflection, questioning his identity and future.

The song also touches on societal expectations and personal desires. The protagonist mentions studying medicine to become a doctor, a decision influenced by his mother, but he expresses a desire to return to Santos and become a fisherman. This contrast highlights the struggle between fulfilling societal roles and pursuing personal passions. The reference to 'abrindo as portas da percepção' with his friend 'baiacu' suggests a journey of self-discovery and enlightenment, possibly through unconventional or spiritual means.

Cultural references are woven throughout the song, from the mention of 'transe tribal' to 'rock rural,' blending traditional and modern elements. The lyrics also reference famous names like João, Paulo, Milton, and Salomão, possibly alluding to historical or biblical figures, adding layers of meaning to the narrative. The closing lines, 'Relaxa eu sei que cê tá aflito, Não se importa, Quem vai volta!' offer a sense of reassurance and acceptance, suggesting that life's journey is cyclical and those who leave will eventually return.
