Para Mí

Beny Jr's song 'Para Mí' delves into the complexities of personal authenticity, love, and the struggles of street life. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a man who prides himself on being real and unapologetically himself. He acknowledges that his attitude and lifestyle may not be for everyone, but he remains true to his roots. This sense of authenticity is a recurring theme, as he contrasts his genuine nature with the superficiality he perceives in others, particularly in romantic relationships.

The song also explores the theme of unrequited love and the emotional turmoil that comes with it. Beny Jr reflects on a past relationship, expressing a sense of loss and longing. He admits that he often fails in love and cannot pretend to be someone he is not. This vulnerability is juxtaposed with his tough exterior, as he describes himself as a 'lobo' (wolf) and a 'demonio' (demon), highlighting the internal conflict between his softer emotions and his hardened persona.

Cultural references to street life and the struggles of living in a tough environment are also prevalent in the song. Beny Jr mentions his involvement in criminal activities and the constant need to defend himself, both physically and emotionally. The repeated references to meeting at 3 o'clock and the stress-relieving effects of these encounters suggest a routine escape from the harsh realities of his life. The song ends with a call for freedom for his friends, Sufián and Mustafa, further emphasizing the sense of community and loyalty that pervades his world.
