Sigo Aquí (feat. Álvaro de Luna)

In 'Sigo Aquí,' Alex Ubago, featuring Álvaro de Luna, delves into the profound struggle of seeking authenticity in a world that often misunderstands and misjudges. The song opens with the protagonist expressing a sense of perpetual questioning and a refusal to conform to superficial expectations. The lyrics, 'Soy la pregunta del millón / Siempre la interrogación,' highlight a deep-seated need for genuine understanding, rather than hollow affirmations. This sets the stage for a narrative where the protagonist feels unheard and unseen, encapsulated in the line, 'No me entiendes / Y nunca seré lo que esperas de mi.'

As the song progresses, the theme of duality emerges, with the protagonist identifying as both a child and a man, navigating the complexities of identity. The lyrics, 'Niño y hombre puedo ser / No me uses y apartes de ti,' suggest a plea for acceptance in all facets of their being. This duality is further explored through the lens of learning and growth, as seen in 'Y vi, como alguien aprendió / Lo que nadie le enseño,' indicating a journey of self-discovery that is often solitary and misunderstood by others.

The chorus, 'Y yo solo quiero ser real / Y sentir el mundo igual que los otros,' serves as a poignant declaration of the desire for authenticity and connection. The protagonist yearns to experience the world genuinely, without the burden of societal expectations. The repeated assertion, 'Sigo aquí,' underscores a resilient spirit, determined to remain true to oneself despite external pressures. The song ultimately conveys a powerful message about the importance of self-acceptance and the courage to remain authentic in a world that often demands conformity.
