Objetivo a rendir

Barricada's song 'Objetivo a rendir' delves into the intense and perilous struggle for freedom, capturing the essence of rebellion and the high stakes involved. The opening lines, 'Un dos tres fuego. Esto es un asunto serio,' set a tone of urgency and seriousness, indicating that the situation at hand is life-threatening. The lyrics suggest a scenario where the protagonist is forced into a dire situation with no real choice, highlighting the inevitability of conflict and the calculated risks involved.

The recurring phrase 'objetivo a rendir' (objective to surrender) underscores the sense of being targeted and oppressed. The song paints a vivid picture of a person who is aware of the dangers but is driven by a desire to break free, as seen in lines like 'roto el muro con tus manos, salir por patas y a vivir' (break the wall with your hands, run away and live). This imagery conveys a powerful message about the human spirit's resilience and the lengths one will go to achieve freedom, even when the odds are stacked against them.

The song's climax, marked by 'Humo y sangre en la prisión, una ráfaga se oyó, un cuerpo cayo,' (Smoke and blood in the prison, a burst was heard, a body fell), brings a stark and brutal reality to the forefront. The imagery of smoke, blood, and falling bodies evokes a sense of finality and the high cost of rebellion. The repeated questioning of 'La suerte?' (Luck?) at the end of the song leaves the listener pondering the role of fate and chance in such life-and-death situations. Barricada's raw and gritty musical style complements the song's themes, making 'Objetivo a rendir' a poignant reflection on the struggle for freedom and the sacrifices it entails.
