Amor Por Compromiso

In Alfredo Olivas' song "Amor Por Compromiso," the artist delves into the complexities of a relationship that has lost its genuine affection and has become a mere obligation. The lyrics paint a picture of a love that was once vibrant but has now withered, much like a flower that was destined to dry up. Olivas uses the metaphor of a flower to symbolize the relationship, indicating that despite their efforts, the love they once shared was doomed to fade away.

The song's narrative is one of self-liberation and the courage to walk away from something that no longer brings joy or fulfillment. Olivas sings about a 'war without a judge,' highlighting the constant conflict and lack of resolution in the relationship. He makes a decisive choice to end the cycle of pain and dissatisfaction, emphasizing the importance of self-care and mental well-being. The phrase 'Amor por Compromiso' (Love by Commitment) suggests that the relationship continued out of a sense of duty rather than genuine affection, which ultimately led to its demise.

Olivas also touches on the theme of personal growth and the necessity of moving on from toxic situations. By referring to the relationship as his 'ex-eden,' he acknowledges that what once seemed like paradise has now become a source of distress. The repetition of 'hace tiempo me alejé' (I distanced myself a long time ago) underscores his journey towards emotional independence and the reclaiming of his own happiness. This song resonates with anyone who has ever felt trapped in a relationship out of obligation and serves as a reminder that it is okay to prioritize one's own well-being.
