Só Lamento (part. MC Livinho)

Mari Fernandez's song "Só Lamento," featuring MC Livinho, is a powerful anthem about self-respect and moving on from a toxic relationship. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of someone who has been taken for granted and is now reclaiming their worth. The song opens with a critique of the ex-partner's superficial lifestyle, highlighting how social media posts and constant partying fail to fill the void left by a genuine connection. This sets the stage for the central theme: the realization that the ex-partner's attempts to mask their loneliness are futile.

The chorus is a declaration of independence and self-worth. The repeated line, "Tá pensando que é bagunça? Me teve e não me amou," translates to "Do you think this is a joke? You had me and didn't love me." This line underscores the speaker's frustration and disappointment but also their newfound strength. The phrase "Perdeu pra dar valor" means "You lost to give value," suggesting that the ex-partner only realizes the worth of the relationship after it's too late. The song's title, "Só Lamento," which means "I only regret," encapsulates the speaker's final sentiment towards their ex-partner: a mix of pity and indifference.

The collaboration with MC Livinho adds an extra layer of depth to the song, blending Fernandez's emotive vocals with Livinho's distinctive style. The repeated mentions of "Batidão Stronda e DG" refer to the producers, emphasizing the song's catchy, danceable beat. Despite its upbeat tempo, the song carries a poignant message about self-respect and the importance of moving on from relationships that don't serve us. It's a reminder that sometimes, the best thing we can do is to let go and focus on our own happiness.
