Marihuana

El General's song 'Marihuana' is a bold and straightforward celebration of cannabis use. The lyrics are a call to action for those who enjoy smoking marijuana to openly acknowledge their preference. The chorus, which repeats the phrase 'Alza la mano si te gusta la marihuana' ('Raise your hand if you like marijuana'), serves as an anthem for cannabis enthusiasts to unite and express their choice without shame or fear of judgment.

The song also touches on the societal and familial pressures that users may face. The lines 'Y si a tu mai o a tu pai le afecta / El que yo fume marihuana le afecta' ('And if it affects your mom or your dad / That I smoke marijuana, it affects them') highlight the generational divide and the stigma that often accompanies marijuana use. El General suggests that those who disapprove should come to terms with it, as it is his theme and goal to smoke marijuana. This defiance against societal norms is a recurring theme in the song.

Furthermore, El General argues for the legalization of marijuana, pointing out its medicinal benefits and the futility of prohibition, as he believes it will never be eradicated. The song's stance is clear: marijuana should be accepted and legalized, and those who enjoy it should be able to do so freely. The artist's message is one of personal freedom, advocating for the right to make one's own choices regarding cannabis consumption.
