A Call to Remember: Callejeros' 'Acordate'

Callejeros' song 'Acordate' is a powerful critique of political corruption and social inequality. The lyrics are a direct address to those in power, accusing them of fraud and manipulation through electoral processes. The song suggests that the pursuit of power and wealth often leads to moral decay, as those who seek to 'virreynar' (reign) through deceit end up disconnected from the suffering of the masses. The reference to 'Disney' being far away underscores the disparity between the idealized, carefree life and the harsh realities faced by many.

The chorus serves as a poignant reminder to those who have risen to power to remember their roots and the people they have exploited to get there. The line 'Acordate de que antes todo era nuestro' (Remember that everything was ours before) evokes a sense of lost communal ownership and shared struggle. The song highlights the stark contrast between the elite's luxurious lifestyle ('pizza con champaña') and the everyday hardships faced by the majority. It calls for a return to authenticity and integrity, urging listeners to follow their instincts and resist being bought or controlled.

The final verses emphasize the importance of listening to those who value hard work and reality over superficial appearances. The song suggests that true justice and peace can only be achieved when resources and opportunities are genuinely shared among all. Callejeros' 'Acordate' is not just a song but a rallying cry for social justice, urging people to remember their origins and the collective struggle for a fairer society.
