Máquina Del Tiempo

Farruko's 'Máquina Del Tiempo' is a heartfelt exploration of nostalgia, regret, and the passage of time. The song's title, which translates to 'Time Machine,' sets the stage for a journey into the past, where the artist reflects on moments he wishes he could relive. The lyrics express a deep yearning to revisit and savor past experiences, particularly those he feels he took for granted. This longing is poignantly captured in lines like 'Quisiera tener una máquina del tiempo / Para viajar directamente hasta el pasado,' where Farruko wishes for a time machine to directly travel back to the past.

The song is rich with personal memories, such as eating traditional meals at his grandmother's house and carefree days spent with friends. These vivid recollections highlight the simplicity and joy of his earlier life, contrasting with the complexities and responsibilities of adulthood. Farruko's mention of 'chuleta y arroz con habichuelas' and 'vacilone' con lo' panita' en la escuela' paints a picture of a cherished, simpler time. The artist's reflection on these moments underscores a universal theme: the bittersweet nature of growing up and the inevitable changes that come with it.

Farruko also delves into deeper existential questions, pondering why life must end and why some wounds never heal. This introspection is evident in the chorus, where he asks, '¿Por qué se tiene que acabar la vida? / ¿Por qué no se sanarán las heridas?' These lines reveal a sense of helplessness and a desire for answers to life's most profound questions. Despite the melancholy tone, the song also conveys a message of gratitude and resilience. Farruko acknowledges the blessings he has received and the strength he has gained from overcoming challenges, as seen in 'He sido más que bendecido / Gracia' a Dio' que me ha cumplido.' This blend of nostalgia, reflection, and gratitude makes 'Máquina Del Tiempo' a deeply resonant and emotionally rich song.
