Calma

Coque Malla's song 'Calma' paints a vivid picture of a city drenched in rain, symbolizing a moment of stillness and introspection. The opening lines set the scene in a deserted city, emphasizing the unusual quietness at ten in the morning. This calmness is not just physical but also metaphorical, representing a deeper sense of peace and reflection. The artist yearns for different sounds, not from fearful, confined people but from liberated souls who embody tranquility.

The song takes a turn as it describes strange birds circling the city, a metaphor for unexpected and unsettling events that disrupt the calm. This imagery evokes a sense of unease, as the soul tightens and the previously serene atmosphere is disturbed. Malla calls for unity, suggesting that in times of uncertainty, people should come together like never before. He urges listeners to stop the mechanical routines and listen to their inner heartbeat, which reveals the truth about whom to trust, doubt, touch, and love, all with a sense of calmness akin to water.

As the song progresses, the sounds of sirens and falling tears on deserted streets highlight the ongoing struggle against fear. Despite the chaos, there is a resilient spirit among the people, who travel with their minds to envision a different, brighter moment. This moment is described as luminous, surprising, fun, enveloping, lascivious, and warm, yet still maintaining a sense of calm. The recurring theme of calmness, likened to water, underscores the importance of inner peace amidst external turmoil, making 'Calma' a poignant reflection on finding serenity in a chaotic world.
