"Eu Deixei" is Carolina Deslandes’s fierce diary entry about waking up from a love that bruised more than it blessed. Throughout the song she stops blaming the other person and turns the mirror on herself, repeating the burning question "Como é que eu deixei?" – "How did I let this happen?" That refrain captures the shock of realizing we sometimes stay in toxic stories out of blind devotion. The verses paint the contrast: a partner who shouts yet kisses her forehead, bitter words wrapped in tender gestures, while she silences her own doubts by declaring "Foi por amor" – "It was for love."
By the end, the track becomes an act of cleansing. Deslandes spits the pain out, admits the anger lodged in her throat, and vows to stop shrinking into a “version menor de mim” – a smaller version of herself. The song is raw, rhythmic self-reclamation, reminding listeners that recognizing our own role is the first beat in dancing free from a harmful relationship.
