Canção Dos Cursos

In 'Canção Dos Cursos,' Canções de TFM takes listeners on a vivid journey through the rigorous and often grueling experiences of military training. The song's lyrics are a testament to the physical and mental challenges faced by soldiers as they progress through various specialized courses. Each verse highlights a different stage of training, from the initial CFC (Curso de Formação de Cabos) to the intense 'guerra na selva' (jungle warfare) and 'guia de montanha' (mountain guide) courses. The repetition of the lines emphasizes the relentless nature of this journey, where each course builds upon the last, demanding more resilience and determination from the soldier.

Phrases like 'ralava pra caralho e não tinha água não' (worked my ass off and there was no water) and 'conversava com as onças e bebia jurubeba' (talked to jaguars and drank jurubeba) evoke a sense of the physical and psychological toll of these experiences. The mention of 'escalava as paredes, parecia o homem aranha' (climbed walls, looked like Spider-Man) adds a touch of surrealism, highlighting the extraordinary feats soldiers must perform.
