A Culpa É do Meu Grau (part. Zé Neto e Cristiano)

Diego e Victor Hugo's song "A Culpa É do Meu Grau," featuring Zé Neto e Cristiano, delves into the emotional turmoil of a man grappling with heartbreak and the coping mechanisms he employs to deal with his pain. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a social gathering where everyone is enjoying themselves, yet the protagonist feels out of place and emotionally distressed. The line "O freezer tá marcando -4, tá todo mundo alegre e eu grilado" sets the scene, highlighting the contrast between the festive atmosphere and his inner turmoil.

The protagonist reveals that he made a promise to stop drinking in hopes of winning back his lost love, but finds it impossible to keep. The recurring theme of staring at the bottle and eventually giving in to the temptation underscores his struggle. The lyrics "Eu encaro a garrafa, ela me encara, não tem jeito" poignantly capture this internal battle. Drinking becomes a crutch for him, a way to mask his pain and avoid facing his emotions head-on. The chorus emphasizes this, as he admits that without alcohol, he becomes antisocial and his true feelings become apparent to others.

The song also touches on the idea of using alcohol as an excuse for his actions and emotions. The repeated line "Se eu já acostumei jogar a culpa no meu grau" suggests that he has become accustomed to blaming his behavior on his level of intoxication. This reflects a deeper issue of avoidance and denial, as he struggles to confront his heartbreak and the reality of his situation. The collaboration with Zé Neto e Cristiano adds a layer of depth to the song, as their voices blend seamlessly to convey the raw emotion and vulnerability of the protagonist.
