Hey
Verse 1
My place has a light that shines from afar
There are women with eyes full of hope
And music that makes the sun dance
My place
There's sweat mixed with faith
There's a dance that stirs in the feet
Of the elder who knows how to teach
Chorus 1
My homeland is
My homeland tastes like coffee
It's where love never loses faith
And longing comes in tides
My homeland is
Postchorus 1
My homeland, yeah
Yeah, my homeland, yeah
My homeland, yeah
My homeland is
My homeland, yeah
Yeah, my homeland, yeah
My homeland, yeah
My homeland is
Bridge 1
My refuge, my reason why
Where my heart walks barefoot
It's where I met you
Verse 2
My place has sorrow that turns into poetry
There is a drum that heals trouble
And a silence that knows how to speak
My place has a fire that never goes out
A prayer that never falls silent
And a love that doesn't know how to judge
Chorus 2
My homeland is
My homeland tastes like coffee
It's where love never loses faith
And longing comes in tides
My homeland is
Postchorus 2
My homeland
My homeland
My
My homeland is
My homeland
My homeland
My
My homeland is
Bridge 2
My refuge, my reason why
Where my heart walks barefoot
It's where I met you
Outro
My place
My place
My place
My place
Hmm
My place

descalçobarefoot

Descalço means "barefoot." It's a simple yet evocative word that conjures images of freedom, comfort, and a deep connection to the earth.

In the song, the artist sings, "Onde o meu coração pisa descalço" (Where my heart steps barefoot). This beautiful metaphor suggests a place where the heart feels completely at ease, authentic, and unburdened, highlighting a profound sense of belonging and peace.

O Meu Lugar ("My Place") is 7AL3M's tribute to home. Over a warm, Afrobeat-leaning groove, he paints his homeland in sensory detail: a light that reaches you from far away, women with hopeful eyes, and music that makes the sun dance.

Home here is more than a location. It's a refuge and a reason to keep going, described as sweat mixed with faith, a fire that never goes out, and a love that never judges. The repeated line "minha terra é" ("my homeland is") becomes a kind of chant, building into a joyful celebration of belonging and gratitude for where he comes from.
