Vida Cara (feat. Mesita)

“Vida Cara (feat. Mesita)” by C.R.O is a vivid portrayal of a life transformed by success and wealth. The song opens with the artist describing his lavish lifestyle, smoking 20 grams in a hotel lobby and flying in a private jet with stacks of money and women. This imagery sets the tone for the rest of the song, emphasizing the surreal nature of his newfound affluence. The repeated line, “Esta vida cara no me la puedo creer” (I can’t believe this expensive life), underscores his astonishment at the drastic change from his past to his present.

The lyrics delve into the journey from humble beginnings to achieving a millionaire status. C.R.O reflects on his rise from the barrio, negotiating deals over the phone, and living a life that feels like a dream painted with a brush. The mention of designer clothes, expensive cars, and high-end vacations like trips to Ibiza highlights the material success he has achieved. Yet, there is a sense of disbelief and wonderment throughout the song, as if he is still coming to terms with his rapid ascent to fame and fortune.

C.R.O also touches on the darker side of this lifestyle, hinting at the pressures and potential dangers that come with it. Lines like “No sé si vivo rápido o me estoy muriendo lento” (I don’t know if I’m living fast or dying slowly) suggest a contemplation of the toll this high-paced life might be taking on him. Despite the opulence, there is an underlying recognition of the sacrifices and risks involved. The song encapsulates the duality of living a dream life that is both exhilarating and overwhelming, a testament to the artist’s journey and the complexities of success in the music industry.
