“Era Uma Vez” (Once Upon a Time) invites you to hop onto a time-machine made of cotton-candy clouds and slide back into the carefree days of childhood. Kell Smith paints scenes where you could decide to be a hero or a villain before lunch, heal any scratch with a warm bath and a kiss, and fall asleep knowing tomorrow would be brand-new. The chorus playfully reminds us that while we rush to grow up, we later discover that a scraped knee hurts far less than a broken heart.
Beneath the nostalgia, the song delivers an encouraging wink: even after realizing the world can be harsh, you can still refuse to see cruelty as “normal.” Keep the childlike sparkle alive, believe in real happiness along the way, and remember that true joy is found on the journey, not only at the finish line.
