Ojos que no ven

Alexis y Fido's song 'Ojos que no ven' delves into the complexities of infidelity and secrecy within relationships. The title, which translates to 'Eyes that don't see,' is a nod to the Spanish proverb 'Ojos que no ven, corazón que no siente,' meaning 'What the eyes don't see, the heart doesn't feel.' This phrase encapsulates the song's central theme: the idea that ignorance can sometimes shield one from emotional pain. The lyrics repeatedly emphasize this notion, suggesting that what is hidden or unseen cannot hurt the heart.

The song's narrative is built around the confessions of a man who acknowledges his misbehavior but rationalizes it by claiming that if his partner doesn't find out, it won't cause any harm. Lines like 'Me porto mal... lo sé!! No se siente lo que no se ve' ('I behave badly... I know!! You don't feel what you don't see') highlight this justification. The repeated references to pillows and walls speaking if they could, 'Si esa almohada hablara, Si las paredes hablaran,' add a layer of secrecy and guilt, implying that the truth is confined within the private spaces of the bedroom.

Musically, Alexis y Fido are known for their reggaeton style, which often features themes of love, desire, and nightlife. 'Ojos que no ven' fits well within this context, blending catchy rhythms with provocative lyrics. The song's playful yet introspective tone invites listeners to reflect on the moral ambiguities of relationships and the fine line between honesty and deception. It also touches on the human tendency to hide uncomfortable truths to maintain emotional stability, making it a relatable and thought-provoking piece.
