Si No Fuera Por Ti (part. Lasso)

Beret's song 'Si No Fuera Por Ti,' featuring Lasso, is a poignant exploration of the emotional turmoil that follows a breakup. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a person grappling with the aftermath of a relationship that has left them deeply scarred. The opening lines, 'Correr por un campo de minas será más seguro que yo andar contigo,' set the tone for the song, comparing the emotional risk of being with their ex to walking through a minefield. This metaphor underscores the intense pain and danger they feel in the wake of the relationship's end.

The chorus, 'Si no fuera por ti, me iría a trabajar en vez de estar acá, tomando hasta morir,' reveals the protagonist's struggle to move on. They admit that if it weren't for their lingering feelings, they would be able to focus on their life and responsibilities instead of drowning their sorrows in alcohol. This line highlights the destructive impact of unresolved emotions and the difficulty of finding closure. The repetition of 'Si no fuera por ti' emphasizes the central theme of the song: the protagonist's life would be significantly better if they could just forget their ex.

Throughout the song, there's a sense of longing and frustration. The protagonist acknowledges that they are not like their ex, who seems to have moved on easily. Lines like 'La gente no desaparece fácil de mi mente, no es una virtud' express the protagonist's struggle with letting go and the pain of seeing their ex's photo constantly reminding them of what they lost. The song captures the universal experience of heartache and the arduous journey of healing after a breakup, making it relatable to anyone who has ever loved and lost.
