Time, the King

A comforting song for days of defeat. Using boxing as a metaphor for life's falls and hardships, the track offers a musical embrace and preaches historical patience. "Tempo Rei" (King Time) emerges as the sovereign ruler of healing, capable of dissolving the sharpest pains, validating the grieving period, and preparing the spirit for a new painting on the canvas of existence.

Behind the Scenes: "Tempo Rei" was born from the urge to create a safe haven for human failure and frustration. In a world that demands constant success, this song serves as a shelter for those whose authentic dreams have crumbled. It acknowledges the raw pain of being knocked down but invites the listener into the therapeutic balance of reggae, validating the necessary time to grieve while reminding them that they still hold the canvas and the paint for their future.

A few seconds away from a knockout
(A alguns segundos do nocaute)

The face is nothing but sweat and blood
(Rosto é só suor e sangue)

Instinct says: jump back!
(O instinto fala: pra trás salte!)

An impossible task for shaky legs
(Impossível para pernas vacilantes)

Now trapped in the ropes
(Agora presos nas cordas)

In life's dead-end corner
(Na sinuca de bico da vida)

Happiness walks along the edges
(Da felicidade anda nas bordas)

It’s hard to escape this vicious wheel
(Difícil sair dessa roda viva)

Time comes to dissolve
(O tempo vem pra diluir)

Little by little, part by part
(Pouco a pouco, parte a parte)

All the pain that lives there
(Toda dor que está aí)

Changing everything for your rescue
(Muda tudo para seu resgate)

Time heals, time cures
(O tempo sara o tempo cura)

It is there even for those who think it isn't
(Está aí até pra quem acha que não tem)

Life gives us many beatings
(A vida nos dá muitas surras)

Let time heal, for the best is yet to come
(Deixe o tempo curar que o melhor vem)

When during the hard blow
(Quando no golpe duro)

The canvas is the only horizon
(A lona é o horizonte)

Everything feels dirty
(Tudo parece sujo)

Stranded without a single bridge
(Ilhado sem nenhuma ponte)

Looking up hurts
(Olhar pra cima dói)

Everything around corrodes
(Tudo a volta corrói)

In the touch, I feel no sensation
(No toque não sinto tato)

To the eyes, everything is opaque
(Aos olhos tudo é opaco)

Time comes to dissolve
(O tempo vem pra diluir)
Little by little, part by part
(Pouco a pouco, parte a parte)
All the pain that lives there
(Toda dor que está aí)
Changing everything for your rescue
(Muda tudo para seu resgate)

Time heals, time cures
(O tempo sara o tempo cura)
It is there even for those who think it isn't
(Está aí até pra quem acha que não tem)
Life gives us many beatings
(A vida nos dá muitas surras)
Let time heal, for the best is yet to come
(Deixe o tempo curar que o melhor vem)

No matter how much pain is felt
(Por mais que a dor se sinta)

And even if you run out of breath
(E que lhe falte a respiração)

You hold the canvas and the paint.
(Você tem a tela e a tinta.)

Give time for a new action.
(Dê tempo para nova ação.)

There is a time for mourning, that is a law
(Tem tempo de luto, isso é lei)

Trust the future... It is King Time!
(Confie no futuro... É tempo rei!)
