[Verse 1]

Entre linhas de código e ecrãs

Between lines of code and screens

Desenhas mundos, foges de amanhãs

You design worlds, escape from tomorrows

Às vezes, a pressão aperta o peito

Sometimes, the pressure tightens the chest

O medo de falhar, um peso desfeito

The fear of failing, an undone weight

[Chorus]

Ainda estou a construir

I'm still building

Não nasci para desistir

I wasn't born to give up

Passo a passo, ergo a minha liberdade

Step by step, I raise my freedom

Com o teu amor, afasto a ansiedade

With your love, I push away anxiety

[Verse 2]

No design, encontras o teu lugar

In design, you find your place

Mas o cansaço às vezes faz parar

But tiredness sometimes makes you stop

Sonhas com paz, um lar, a tua família

Independência, a cada nova milha

Independence, with every new mile

Ainda estou a construir

Não nasci para desistir

Passo a passo, ergo a minha liberdade

[Bridge]

Tu és o meu porto, a minha luz

You are my harbor, my light

Em cada dúvida, o que me conduz

In every doubt, what guides me

Juntas, vamos chegar lá

Together, we will get there

Nesta casa que vamos criar

In this house we will create

[Chorus]

Ainda estou a construir

I'm still building

Não nasci para desistir

I wasn't born to give up

Passo a passo, ergo a minha liberdade
