Veo Veo

Abuela Coca's song 'Veo Veo' is a contemplative and introspective piece that delves into themes of self-awareness, connection, and the passage of time. The repetitive phrase 'Veo veo, me veo a mi te veo a vos' translates to 'I see, I see, I see myself, I see you,' suggesting a dual focus on self-reflection and the recognition of others. This interplay between self and other is central to the song's message, emphasizing the importance of understanding oneself in relation to the world and the people around us.

The lyrics describe a sense of timelessness and placelessness, with lines like 'Vivo en ningún tiempo, en ningún lugar ni momento' ('I live in no time, in no place or moment'). This evokes a feeling of floating through life, guided by thoughts and experiences that are as fleeting and illuminating as fireflies. The metaphor of fireflies represents moments of clarity and insight that help the narrator navigate through life's challenges, suggesting that these small, bright moments are what keep us moving forward.

The song also touches on themes of honesty and personal growth. The narrator acknowledges their own temptations and struggles but emphasizes the importance of persistence and self-acceptance. The line 'Hoy ya no me miento, y me hago cargo aunque aveces me tiento' ('Today I no longer lie to myself, and I take responsibility even though sometimes I am tempted') highlights a commitment to self-improvement and authenticity. The song concludes with a hopeful note, urging listeners to start anew and approach life as a game to be played with sincerity and openness.
