Sodré's original composition, "Confissão," explores the often-difficult choice artists must make between personal relationships and dedication to their craft. The song captures the internal struggle between the anguish of separation and the acceptance of a new reality, while the chorus expresses a desire to move on and do good for the loved one, even if their paths must diverge. Sodré sings, “There's no turning back / My life is crooked / And yours / Will surely be happy / I will live singing / And not searching for you.”
