about

The third single of the band AYOM will be launched worldwide on November 4th; "Me deixe ser" (“Let me be”) is a request for permission, a vindication of freedom, more precisely, of femininity in all its nuances. Drunk on a powerful cocktail of hormones naturally contained in her body, the musician, composer and front woman Jabu Morales,makesa clear and blunt manifest about a woman’s biological cycle and how much this affects and determines their emotions.

Without resorting to clichés or images far too exploited about the feminine universe in all its complexity, the lyrics are almost rough, escaping rudeness by how honestly the message is carried. “I will allow my antipathy”, one of the first phrases of the melody. Securing a pact of sincerity that brings the listener into the tapestry or, rather, the storm of emotions that impacts the composer in the midst of her PMS (Premenstrual Syndrome), right from the start of the music.

lyrics

Jabu Morales/ Alberto Becucci
Me deixe ser,
não tem razão
vou permitir minha antipatia
não é com você, não é ingratidão
nem quero saber o que me angustia

vou observar
e logo vai passar
antes do sol se por eu volto a ser quem sou
anseio a explosão
que ascende o coração
e sem mais lamentar sou quem você queria

Sou pausa em movimento,
um corpo vazio
sou brisa e calmaria,
um vento bravio
broto de pedra em gota
e já sou rio em busca do mar

Sou mesmo assim,
o sim e o não
sou claro sou escuro,
sou prosa e poesia
eu quero ser mãe
ou também meretriz
sem nunca me culpar
pelo que eu quis

Eu vou transbordar
como um copo de fel
onde antes eu fui mel
hoje sou nostalgia
e ainda vou ser eu
como a cada dia
quando te reencontrar
em nossa fantasia
