no somos iguales

Babi's song 'no somos iguales' delves deep into the complexities of emotional pain, betrayal, and the stark differences between individuals. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a tumultuous relationship where the protagonist feels misunderstood and isolated. The opening lines, 'Te di el alma mía cuando el día se escondió,' suggest a deep emotional investment that was ultimately met with betrayal, as indicated by 'Traición graba'o con las uñas dentro 'el ataúd.' This metaphor of betrayal being etched into a coffin underscores the permanence and depth of the hurt experienced.

The song also explores themes of mental health and substance abuse, with lines like 'Carne y sexo, muchos benzos, mucha depresión' highlighting the destructive coping mechanisms the protagonist resorts to. The juxtaposition of 'hospital' and 'rave' in the chorus symbolizes the oscillation between seeking help and escaping reality through hedonistic means. This duality is further emphasized by the line 'Voy del hospital a la rave,' illustrating the protagonist's struggle to find balance and peace.

Babi's raw and unfiltered lyrics also touch on societal pressures and the superficiality of relationships. The line 'Yo no valgo pa' cualquiera, todos valen si hay dinero' critiques the materialistic nature of society, where worth is often measured by wealth rather than genuine connection. The repeated refrain 'no somos iguale'' serves as a powerful reminder of the inherent differences between people, and the futility of trying to equate one's experiences and emotions with another's. Through 'no somos iguales,' Babi offers a poignant commentary on the pain of unreciprocated love, the struggle for mental stability, and the societal pressures that exacerbate these issues.
