Nací Pa Esto

In 'Nací Pa Esto,' babi (ES) delves into a profound exploration of self-awareness and purpose. The song opens with the artist reflecting on a list of emotions to experience rather than tasks to accomplish, suggesting a focus on personal growth and emotional depth. This introspective journey is framed by a sense of divine timing, as babi acknowledges that completion of this emotional list is in the hands of a higher power.

The lyrics reveal a struggle with self-censorship and the pressure to conform to societal expectations. Babi admits to being captivated by superficial qualities ('el buen ver de la calité') but recognizes that self-censorship is what truly harms her. This internal conflict is portrayed as a sin, highlighting the artist's struggle to reconcile her thoughts and feelings. Despite this, babi maintains a sense of authenticity, emphasizing that her work, though seemingly trivial and commercial, is a true reflection of herself and inspires purity and certainty in others.

The recurring refrain, 'Sé que nací pa' esto, y no hay más,' underscores a deep-seated belief in her purpose. Babi sees herself as a healer of the world through her own brokenness, offering her unique perspective ('el salitre de mi mar') as a gift. The imagery of dissociation and feeling out of place ('no soy de este lugar') further emphasizes her sense of otherness and the duality of her existence, caught between feeling blessed and cursed. Ultimately, the song is a powerful testament to embracing one's destiny, flaws and all, and finding beauty in the struggle.
