Name: Né?
Duration: P00H04M48S
Description: Children constantly ask why everything is in that certain way. And Dani never stopped asking. This song reproduces Dani asking Debora why this and why that, and reminds us that our thirst for knowledge is what drives us forward. So this song, which began as a 3/4 samba and turned into a maracatu in the middle, got its life from its groove and a few 5/4 bars as a bonus.

lyrics

Mãe, me ensina um pedaço
De qualquer ciência
Da cor que é o céu
E me explica o buraco tão negro
Que amassa e condensa a granel

Diz por que que paramos aqui
E por que que não dá pra sair
Por que tudo é na vida
E o espaço é um traço
De areia a cair

Mãe, me conta onde aperta
Se a coisa enguiçar
Como faz toda vez
E me lembra o que eu ponho
Pro bolo ficar bem macio pro freguês

Diz por que nosso mundo é assim
E por que tanta dúvida em mim
Quero saber tanta coisa
De onde, o começo
O percurso e o fim

Parei de pedir,
Perguntar sem porquê, né?
De tão curiosa eu tropeço no ar, né?
Não vou me guiar pelo fim que não sei, né?
Eu junto o saber que ouvi

E vou traçando meu próprio andar
Vou desenhando meu conhecer
O que me falta
O que eu não sei
É que me dá corda pra caminhar
