The Inner Struggle of Temptation in 'Confesá' by Eté & Los Problems

In 'Confesá,' Eté & Los Problems delve into the complexities of human temptation and the internal conflict that arises from it. The song opens with a depiction of a mundane day, setting the stage for the protagonist's introspective journey. The lyrics, 'Es un día tan normal / Nada por aquí todo por allá,' suggest a sense of routine and normalcy, yet there's an underlying tension. The protagonist admits to being accustomed to failure, indicating a resigned acceptance of their flaws and mistakes.

The recurring motif of a 'ruido' or 'zumbido'—a noise or buzzing—serves as a metaphor for temptation. This sound is described as almost a sigh, something subtle yet persistent that calls out to the protagonist. The lyrics, 'Es un ruido, es como un zumbido / Es casi un suspiro / Que me llama,' capture the allure of this temptation, which becomes so overwhelming that it drowns out the voices of others. This internal struggle is further emphasized by the repeated desire to 'perder,' or lose oneself, despite knowing it's wrong. The protagonist's plea, '¿A vos no? / Confesá,' invites the listener to acknowledge their own battles with temptation.

The song also touches on the theme of personal responsibility and decision-making. The lines, 'No te voy explicar / Te podés quedar te podés bajar / Ya sos grande / Como todos aquí / Tenés que decidir,' highlight the inevitability of making choices as an adult. The protagonist must decide whether to heed the tempting 'zumbido' or listen to the advice and opinions of others. This dichotomy between following one's desires and adhering to societal expectations is a universal struggle, making the song relatable to a wide audience.

'Confesá' is a poignant exploration of the human condition, capturing the essence of temptation, personal responsibility, and the internal conflicts that define our choices. Eté & Los Problems use evocative metaphors and relatable scenarios to create a song that resonates deeply with listeners.
