Have you ever heard of a breakup so bad it leaves someone in debt to a loan shark? In "Agiota," the singer tells a dramatic story of a relationship that ended in financial disaster. He accuses his ex-partner of playing a "dirty game" during their separation, leaving him completely broke, or "sem um real na contar" (without a single cent in his account).

Feeling desperate and with no money, the singer makes a risky choice: he borrows money from an "agiota," which means a loan shark. Now, he's trapped in a dangerous situation. The loan shark comes knocking every Friday to collect the debt, waking him up and reminding him of his hopeless "caminho sem volta" (path of no return). The song captures the feeling of being ruined by love and stuck in a cycle of debt and fear.
