Deeply Poetic and Surrealistic Songs and Lyrics The Way You Just Dont Find Anymore for $75

I am Luiz Amargo, the alter ego of Luiz Amaro Fortes - a composer, writer, and audiovisual artist from São Paulo, Brazil, who challenges conventions. My stage name, a pun that has followed me since childhood (Amargo meand bitter in Portuguese), reflects my provocative essence: to stir the senses and spark reflection, like a flavor that awakens the palate.

I can write deep poetic lyrics for your song in English, Portuguese or Spanish, or I can write you an entire song based on your briefing, with unique imagery and subtle sense of humour.

Blending MPB (Brazilian Popular Music) with Indie Rock in an unexpected way, I merge the legacy of Brazilian music with the contemporary restlessness of Generation Z, addressing themes such as love in times of crisis, climate change, and fluid sexuality. My lyrics, marked by dense lyricism and refined irony, navigate between the poetic and the provocative, ranging from intimate ballads to danceable tracks.

With a degree in Music Production (Anhembi Morumbi) and Communication Studies (ECA-USP), I also explore audiovisual arts, theater, and literature—elements that deeply enrich both my compositions.

My songwriting is deeply literary and cinematic, drawing from a broad spectrum of influences that shape both the depth of my lyrics and the sonic landscapes I create. I craft heady, thought-provoking lyrics like no one else, weaving intricate narratives and evocative imagery—but I also know the power of a well-placed, unforgettable chorus.

I take inspiration from Leonard Cohen’s poetic mysticism, Cormac McCarthy’s raw and unflinching storytelling, and the elegant subversion of Caetano Veloso and Chico Buarque, whose work redefined Brazilian music and literature. Their ability to blend political sharpness with personal introspection, complexity with accessibility, is something I strive for in my own writing. I also look to international voices like Bob Dylan, Patti Smith, and Tom Waits—artists who push the boundaries of language and sound to create something both timeless and urgent.

For me, a song is more than just melody and words—it’s an experience, a world unto itself. My work is rich with literary references, layered symbolism, and cinematic atmosphere, but it never loses its grip on the listener. Whether it’s a deeply introspective ballad or an anthemic, catchy hook, I write with the intent to captivate both the mind and the soul.
