Esta Soy Yo

The song 'Esta Soy Yo' by El Sueño de Morfeo is a powerful anthem of self-acceptance and individuality. The lyrics convey a message of embracing one's true self, despite the judgments and expectations of others. The repeated phrase 'Y esta soy yo' which translates to 'And this is me,' serves as a bold declaration of the singer's identity, asserting her presence and uniqueness in the face of criticism.

Throughout the song, the artist describes the various labels and assumptions made about her by others, such as being a 'book without a plot' or a 'photo in black and white.' These metaphors suggest that people perceive her as dull or lacking depth. However, she counters these perceptions by affirming her complexities and the nuances of her personality. The lyrics 'Una especie en extinción, tan real como la vida' ('A species in extinction, as real as life') highlight the rarity and authenticity of her character, which she refuses to compromise.

The song also touches on themes of courage and determination. The singer acknowledges her fears but remains steadfast in her resolve to live authentically ('Asustada y decidida'). She rejects the notion of conforming to someone else's idea of who she should be, as expressed in the lines 'No soy lo que tú piensas, no soy tu cenicienta' ('I am not what you think, I am not your Cinderella'). The message is clear: she will not waste time trying to fit into a mold or live up to unrealistic expectations. 'Esta Soy Yo' is a celebration of self-empowerment and the courage to stand firm in one's identity.
