Fuerte

The song 'Fuerte' by Candy 66 is a powerful anthem of resilience, unity, and inner strength. The lyrics convey a journey marked by pain and love, suggesting that the hardships faced have been transformative and educational. The phrase 'El dolor fue amor, eso aprendimos' (The pain was love, that's what we learned) encapsulates this idea, indicating that the struggles have led to a deeper understanding and appreciation of love and life. The singer acknowledges shared experiences of suffering, creating a sense of solidarity and mutual understanding with the listener.

The recurring theme of strength is emphasized through the repetition of the word 'Fuerte' (Strong). This serves as a mantra, reinforcing the idea of enduring and overcoming challenges. The lyrics 'Fuimos contra la corriente' (We went against the current) and 'El que huye no llega a nada' (He who flees achieves nothing) highlight the importance of perseverance and facing difficulties head-on. The song suggests that true strength comes from confronting adversity rather than avoiding it, and that unity ('Somos uno somos más' - We are one, we are more) is crucial in this battle.

The song also touches on the idea of a unique inner nation or spirit that is not common ('La nación que llevo adentro no es común'). This metaphorical nation represents the individual's inner strength and light, which must be protected from those who seek to destroy it. The lyrics encourage living as a 'ser de luz' (being of light), suggesting a life of positivity and resilience. The song concludes with a reaffirmation of strength and perseverance, urging the listener to continue their journey with light and without sorrow. 'Fuerte' is a call to remain strong, united, and true to oneself in the face of life's challenges.
