Arriba

Fémina's song 'Arriba' is a powerful exploration of spiritual elevation and self-discovery. The lyrics are rich with imagery and metaphors that convey a journey from the depths of the earth to the heights of the sky. The repeated phrase 'Mil voces llenas de espíritu llenando el vacío' (A thousand voices full of spirit filling the void) suggests a collective awakening, where many voices come together to fill an emptiness, symbolizing a shared spiritual experience or enlightenment. This communal aspect is further emphasized by the invitation to 'flota-a-a-ar' (float), indicating a rise above the mundane and a move towards a higher state of being.

The song also delves into the idea of transformation and rebirth. The lines 'Cuando se abre la Tierra, Tierra-ra-ra / Sube la lava y corre la sangre' (When the Earth opens, Earth-ra-ra / Lava rises and blood flows) evoke a sense of natural upheaval and renewal. This imagery of the earth opening and lava flowing can be seen as a metaphor for personal growth and the shedding of old identities. The act of 'abro mis alas y floto' (I open my wings and float) signifies liberation and the ability to see things from a higher perspective, suggesting that true understanding and freedom come from within.

The theme of self-empowerment is also prominent in 'Arriba'. The lyrics 'Somos solo nosotros / Quienes podemos definir los modos' (It is only us / Who can define the ways) highlight the idea that individuals have the power to shape their own destinies. This message is reinforced by the repeated call to 'desfragmentar cada molécula / Hacerla más, más, más, arriba' (defragment each molecule / Make it more, more, more, up), which can be interpreted as a call to break down and rebuild oneself in a way that elevates one's spirit and consciousness. The song encourages listeners to inhabit their own skin, understand their moments, and seek inspiration as a means to elevate their hearts and minds.
