Nadie es más que Nadie

Apatia No's song 'Nadie es más que Nadie' is a powerful critique of capitalist society and its impact on human values and relationships. The lyrics open with a stark depiction of a world where greed and competition have distorted societal values. The phrase 'Maldita enfermedad que arrasa sentimientos' (Damn disease that devastates feelings) metaphorically describes greed as a destructive force that erodes human compassion and empathy. This sets the stage for the song's central message: a rejection of competition and a call for solidarity and equality.

The chorus, 'nadie es más que nadie, solo somos diferentes' (nobody is more than anyone else, we are just different), emphasizes the idea of inherent human equality. This line is repeated multiple times, reinforcing the notion that no one should be considered superior or inferior to others. The song advocates for a society where sharing and cooperation replace competition and exploitation. The lyrics 'lo mio es compartir sin molestar a los demás' (mine is to share without bothering others) further highlight this ideal of mutual respect and communal living.

Apatia No also critiques the 'Aterradora maquinaria' (terrifying machinery) of capitalism, which offers 'tísica felicidad a costilla de los débiles' (meager happiness at the expense of the weak). This imagery portrays the capitalist system as a relentless machine that exploits the vulnerable for the benefit of a few. The band's rejection of 'tus imposiciones' (your impositions) and embrace of 'la idea solidaria' (the idea of solidarity) underscores their vision for a more just and compassionate world. Through its raw and direct lyrics, 'Nadie es más que Nadie' serves as a rallying cry for those who seek to challenge the status quo and build a society based on equality and mutual aid.
