From the very first line, "Certeza" feels like a warm breeze of optimism. Mariana Nolasco sings about the magical moment when two people lock eyes and everything suddenly makes sense. That instant gives the narrator a crystal-clear certeza (certainty) that they have found the person who brings peace, confidence, and a reason to believe in love again. The gentle melody mirrors this calm assurance, wrapping the listener in the same serenity the singer feels.
Look a little closer and the song becomes a quiet manifesto for choosing love over chaos. Mariana contrasts a world where “tanta gente… não sabe pra onde vai” (so many people do not know where they are going) with the simple, powerful decision to open one’s heart. Minor “besteiras” and daily “loucuras pequenas” often block us from happiness, but the chorus insists that real life begins when we dare to trust, to surrender, and to truly viver (live). In just a few heartfelt verses, “Certeza” reminds learners that certainty is not about having all the answers, but about recognizing the right feeling and holding on tight.
