Yo Se Que Vos

El Empuje's song 'Yo Se Que Vos' captures a vivid scene of youthful rebellion and the desire for freedom. The lyrics paint a picture of a protagonist who is aware of being watched and pursued by someone, possibly an authority figure or a rival, in their neighborhood. The repetition of 'Yo se ke vos estas ahi' (I know you are there) emphasizes the constant surveillance and tension that the protagonist feels. This sense of being hunted is juxtaposed with the protagonist's carefree and defiant attitude as they immerse themselves in a night of dancing, music, and alcohol.

The phrase 'Dicen ke vos la pulantias' suggests that the person watching is involved in some form of policing or patrolling the neighborhood. This could be interpreted as a metaphor for societal pressures and the constraints imposed by authority figures. The protagonist's response to this surveillance is to lose themselves in the liberating atmosphere of a dance party, where they feel free and unrestrained. The repeated lines 'Estoy en el baile, con mis amigos volando en el aire, zarpado en cumbia y zarpado en alcohol' (I'm at the dance, with my friends flying in the air, high on cumbia and high on alcohol) highlight the contrast between the oppressive outside world and the euphoric escape found in music and camaraderie.

El Empuje's musical style, characterized by energetic cumbia rhythms and a raw, unfiltered vocal delivery, enhances the song's themes of rebellion and escape. The song resonates with listeners who have experienced similar feelings of being watched or judged and find solace in the collective joy of music and friendship. 'Yo Se Que Vos' is a powerful anthem for those who seek to break free from societal constraints and find their own path to happiness and freedom.
