UNA LUZ

Cardellino's song 'UNA LUZ' delves into the complexities of self-awareness, personal growth, and the struggle to maintain one's integrity amidst external judgments. The lyrics open with a metaphorical plea for understanding ('Get me, get me, get me your salt'), suggesting a desire to grasp the essence of life's challenges before being judged or criticized. The artist acknowledges his imperfections ('No soy todo lo que está bien / Pero sé bien lo que hice mal') and the inevitability of external opinions ('Lo que digan por ahí / No lo puedo controlar'), yet he remains steadfast in his journey, emphasizing his potential and resilience ('Sigo en la mía poco tiempo pero mucho pa' dar')

The imagery of a cross on the ground and people praying for his downfall ('En el suelo hay una cruz / Y hay quienes rezan para verme colgado') highlights the societal pressures and adversities he faces. Despite this, he finds solace and guidance in a metaphorical light ('En sus ojos una luz / Que me sigue enseñando a amar'), which symbolizes hope, love, and inner strength. The song encourages a deeper, ego-free connection ('Dejemos el ego / Y hablemos de alma a alma'), advocating for genuine understanding and empathy.

Cardellino also reflects on his past mistakes and the scars they have left ('Tengo mis cicatrices pero sé hasta donde llego'), yet he remains unyielding in the face of adversity ('Pongo el pecho a las balas / No busco guerra pero si te hace bien dispara'). The reference to soccer player Luis Suárez ('Cual Lucho Suárez esquivando patadas') serves as a metaphor for navigating life's challenges with determination and skill. Ultimately, the song is a testament to the artist's journey of self-discovery, resilience, and the enduring power of love and light, even in the darkest times ('En silencio me abraza una luz').
