No Soy Asi
Erreway
Breaking Free from Inner Constraints
Erreway's song 'No Soy Asi' delves into the internal struggle of feeling trapped by one's own limitations and the desire to break free from them. The lyrics paint a picture of someone who has always felt a mysterious weakness, a sense of being held back by self-imposed barriers. This person has spent their life not knowing where they were headed, feeling a sense of normalcy in their stagnation. The repetition of 'Siempre se sintió igual' (Always felt the same) emphasizes this ongoing struggle and the frustration that comes with it.
The chorus, 'No soy asi, algo que yo tengo bien guardado dentro de mi, tengo muchas cosas que decir' (I am not like this, something I have well hidden inside me, I have many things to say), reveals a deep-seated desire to express oneself and break free from these internal constraints. This part of the song highlights the contrast between the person's outward appearance and their inner world, suggesting that there is much more beneath the surface that they are eager to share.
The song also touches on the theme of renewal and the hope for change. Lines like 'Sube la cabeza se pone a mirar, Ohh aire nuevo ay en el lugar' (Lift your head and look, Oh, there's new air in the place) suggest a moment of realization and the possibility of a fresh start. The repeated desire to 'Quiero soñar, Quiero gritar' (I want to dream, I want to scream) underscores the yearning for liberation and the need to break free from the constraints that have held them back for so long. 'No Soy Asi' is a powerful anthem of self-discovery and the courage to embrace one's true self.
