"Music is the language of the heart / The noise that thinks, the magic that cries / Real, beautiful, and volatile / Powerful, enveloping, sweetness / Music is the smile / The piano's teeth / The strings on a wooden neck / A little bit of you / A little bit of me / Remember that life doesn't last / Don't forget the beauty of the world."

Her track “Você” (You), featured on our Groove World collection, expresses a deep, emotional dependence on a loved one, reflecting the struggle between the desire for personal freedom and the fear of losing them. It deals with these difficult topics, including the longing, pain, and urgency to keep the connection alive, though an upbeat, catchy rhythm, and moving Portuguese lyrics: “You want me to fly with my own wings / They want us to part ways / But when I met you, I thought / I had found my freedom.”
