Lo Que Se Dice y Lo Que Se Hace

Callejeros' song 'Lo Que Se Dice y Lo Que Se Hace' delves into the complex relationship between words and actions, highlighting the often stark contrast between what people say and what they actually do. The lyrics open with a reflection on past experiences, where the narrator acknowledges that despite claiming to have never been anything significant, they have gone through a lot together. This sets the stage for the central theme of the song: the inconsistency between spoken words and subsequent actions.

The song explores the idea that words spoken in the heat of the moment often fail to reflect true intentions or future actions. This is evident in lines like 'En caliente, las palabras / No reflejan la anterior o posterior acción,' which suggest that words can be impulsive and not necessarily indicative of what will happen next. The lyrics also touch on the concept of time and its role in revealing the truth, as seen in 'Si solo hablara el tiempo / Aunque sea el silencio,' implying that time, even in silence, can expose the reality behind words.

Throughout the song, there is a recurring theme of regret and missed opportunities. The narrator speaks of the need to go all the way ('Hay que ir hasta el final') but admits to being left with doubts and unfulfilled promises. This is juxtaposed with the harsh reality of life, where one must work tirelessly ('A trabajar de Sol a Sol') yet often finds themselves waking up to the same struggles ('Y despertaste con la Luna'). The song ultimately portrays a cycle of unfulfilled expectations and the internal conflict between what is said and what is done, leaving the listener to ponder the true weight of their words and actions.
