“Lama” – Mimicat feat. Matay plunges us into the messy aftermath of a breakup, where every small detail of daily life feels sticky like mud. The singer wakes up to a cold floor, sees an abandoned toothbrush and an empty glass, and instantly remembers the person who left. The imagery of mud captures that heavy, clinging sadness you just can’t shake off. Yet, instead of sinking, the narrator keeps calling the ex back: “Come here, put your ear next to mine and sing just for me.” It is a tug-of-war between aching loneliness and the stubborn hope that love might still return.
At the same time, the lyrics slip in flashes of strength. Even if the water is gone and the bed is cold, the voice insists, “I know how to navigate, even when it’s just mud.” The song reminds us that what feels right can change depending on where you stand, so why not give love another try? With a soulful Portuguese groove and that back-and-forth duet energy, “Lama” paints heartbreak as both a swamp and a river: hard to cross, but still flowing toward a possible reunion.
