Se Viene

Bersuit Vergarabat's song 'Se Viene' is a powerful anthem of protest and social commentary. The repeated phrase 'Se viene el estallido' translates to 'the explosion is coming,' which serves as a metaphor for an impending social and political upheaval. The song juxtaposes the 'explosion' of the artist's guitar with that of the government, suggesting that the force of music and the voice of the people will lead to a significant change or revolution.

The lyrics challenge the status quo, questioning whether the current state of affairs can be considered a dictatorship. The use of the phrase 'Vení agarrala que está dura' which can be translated as 'Come grab it, it's hard,' implies a call to action, urging people to confront the harsh reality and take a stand. The song conveys a sense of urgency and frustration with the government and the system, which is likened to a 'dictadura' or dictatorship, despite not being one officially. This reflects the feelings of oppression and the lack of freedom experienced by the people.

The latter part of the song paints a grim picture of the societal decay, with 'cerdos miserables' (miserable pigs) consuming what's left of the people's resources and the night, a symbol of joy, being taken away. The imagery of 'gente poniendo huevos' (people laying eggs) to escape ruin suggests a desperate struggle for survival. Bersuit Vergarabat, known for their politically charged music, uses 'Se Viene' to voice the collective anger and the anticipation of a breaking point, where the people's resilience turns into active resistance.
