Que Se Yo

Cielo Razzo's song 'Que Se Yo' delves deep into the struggles and resilience of everyday life. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a person grappling with the harsh realities of existence, where the odds seem stacked against them from the start. The phrase 'Qué se yo' (What do I know) reflects a sense of resignation and uncertainty, highlighting the feeling of being lost in a world dominated by 'gigantescos deboradores' (gigantic devourers). This metaphor suggests powerful forces or entities that consume and overshadow the individual's efforts and dreams.

The song's protagonist describes a life filled with punishment and neglect, where even the basic needs of their children are met with mere 'migaja y derrota' (crumbs and defeat). This stark imagery underscores the themes of poverty and despair, as well as the emotional toll it takes on the individual. Despite these hardships, there is a call for calm and resilience, as repeated in the lines 'Calma, calma esa bronca y ese dolor cálmalo' (Calm, calm that anger and pain, calm it). This refrain serves as a reminder to maintain composure and strength in the face of adversity.

The song also touches on the theme of pride and endurance. The protagonist vows never to cry, even when their pride is deeply wounded. The imagery of a drying tree that the sun 'tan sólo lo quema' (only burns) rather than nourishes, symbolizes the relentless challenges that life throws at them. Yet, there is a sense of perseverance as they continue to 'escalando el cerro mayor' (climb the highest hill), suggesting an ongoing struggle but also an unyielding spirit. 'Que Se Yo' is a powerful anthem of resilience, capturing the essence of human endurance amidst life's relentless trials.
