Best of the Rest Chart

As Wished

Guiding Light

Drop Pain

Energy caged, a spirit enraged… 
Flesh as a prison, fate prearranged… 
Justice, death, a twisted breath… 
Madness spreads, through tangled threads…

Shadows descending, no way of transcending, 
Time is unending, forever pretending. 
Night is a liquid, cold and insipid, 
Pouring and slipping, veins now gripping.
Silence is breaking, echoes are faking, 
Dust keeps shaking, voices aching. 
Screams turn hollow, lost where none follow, 
Light plays shallow, fate too callow…

Shadows are breathing, so light keeps deceiving… 
Tremors are seething, a void never leaving… 
Burning and drowning, yet no eyes are seeing, 
Chasing reflections, in echoes repeating…

N𝐨t t𝐡e s𝐭a𝐫s, 𝐛u𝐭 𝐛l𝐚c𝐤 𝐡o𝐥e𝐬 𝐠r𝐢n𝐧i𝐧g… 
𝐒w𝐚l𝐥o𝐰i𝐧g l𝐢g𝐡t, 𝐭h𝐫o𝐮g𝐡 𝐬p𝐢r𝐚l𝐬 𝐬p𝐢n𝐧i𝐧g… 
𝐍o s𝐚l𝐯a𝐭i𝐨n, 𝐧o c𝐞s𝐬a𝐭i𝐨n… 
𝐀l𝐥 𝐞r𝐚s𝐢n𝐠, a𝐥l e𝐦b𝐫a𝐜i𝐧g…

Ruins are speaking, whispers are creaking, 
Nothing revealing, yet shadows are peeking. 
Air is dissolving, form is revolving, 
Colors are bending, vision absolving.
Lies keep shifting, hunger is drifting, 
Truth is a spiral, endlessly twisting. 
Pages unwritten, purpose is bitten, 
Reason is smitten, fate is forbidden.

The void is calling, the void is crawling, 
No shape is forming, no mercy is swarming… 
The void is breathing, the void is seething, 
Nothing redeeming, nothing believing…

N𝐨t t𝐡e s𝐭a𝐫s, 𝐛u𝐭 𝐛l𝐚c𝐤 𝐡o𝐥e𝐬 𝐬c𝐫e𝐚m𝐢n𝐠… 
S𝐰a𝐥l𝐨w𝐢n𝐠 𝐭i𝐦e, 𝐫e𝐰r𝐢t𝐢n𝐠 𝐦e𝐚n𝐢n𝐠…

🎵 Presentation of the song "Lamento do Sertão Urbano" (“Urban Sertão Lament")

Lamento do Sertão Urbano is a song born from the quiet, painful observation of the transformations in our environment. Inspired by the contrast between the green that resists and the gray that advances, the music travels through urban and rural landscapes, revealing the impact of unchecked expansion on nature and life.

With verses that blend lyricism and protest, the lament becomes a collective voice — of the birds, the people, and the cracked earth that insists on blooming. It is a humble tribute to resilience and hope that emerge even in arid times.

Without claiming to offer definitive answers, the song invites listening, reflection, and care. May it find shelter in those who also feel the weight of concrete and dream of deeper roots.

Lyrics in English:

(Verse 1)

How many birds would find their home 
In the living green that could still grow
Across a landscape where these concrete grays
Paint the city in lifeless shades?
By the banks of the Potengi, a mangrove holds its breath,
And a bem-te-vi seeks shade on an electric wire.

(Chorus) 

Green fading, gray rising 
Green vanishing, gray expanding

(Verse 2) 

Warm, hot — a stifling heat, relentless and sharp,
Every patch of land, every paved path,
Boils under the sun, sharpening the island of burning heat,
Begging for at least one drop
Of the planet’s most vital liquid.
In the São Francisco, the river’s skin reveals its bones,
In the caatinga, the macaw silences the sky’s blue.

(Chorus) 

Green fading, gray rising
Leaves withering, walls growing
Green fading, gray rising
Shade thinning, asphalt stretching

Up above, eyes gaze in painful waiting
For the drop that never fell.
You hear the silence of birds in mourning —
Is there a way out, a solution to this?

(Chorus) 

Green fading, gray rising
Green vanishing, gray expanding
Leaves withering, walls growing
Shade thinning, asphalt stretching

Up above, eyes gaze in painful waiting
For the drop that never fell.
You hear the silence of birds in mourning —
Is there a way out, a solution to this?

(Outro) 

The lament of the urban sertão is what I hear.
Yet from cracked soil, stubborn life is born.
A full cistern, hands joined in effort, roots that endure.
If the “could’ve” could breathe, the city would learn to listen.
In the square, a sapling casts its shade — it will bloom.
From clay to backyard, from mangrove to heart,
Hope sprouts without asking permission.

(Eh eh eh, Eh Oh oh oh)
The lament of the urban sertão is what I hear
(Eh eh eh, Eh Oh oh oh)
The people of the sertões and the birds are in mourning
(Eh eh eh, Eh Oh oh oh)
The lament of the urban sertão is what I hear

(Flute Solo)
