Dreaming Awake: A Vision of a Better World

Frank Delgado's song "Soñar Despierto" paints a vivid picture of an ideal world, one that exists only in dreams but serves as a powerful critique of our current reality. The song begins by describing a utopian day where people live harmoniously, free from societal pressures and environmental degradation. Men drink responsibly, couples love without fear of social judgment, and children play without conflict. This idyllic vision contrasts sharply with the real world, highlighting the many issues we face today.

The lyrics delve deeper into this dream world, where rivers are no longer polluted, and the elderly no longer preach about their longevity. Women are free from the pressures of dieting, and everyone enjoys a natural, untainted environment. This dream is a stark contrast to the harsh realities of modern life, where environmental destruction, social pressures, and political unrest are rampant. Delgado's dream world serves as a reminder of what could be if humanity chose a different path.

The song also touches on significant social and political issues, such as the dark clouds of oppression, the plight of the Mothers of the Plaza de Mayo, and the violence in Central America. By imagining a world without these tragedies, Delgado encourages listeners to dream of a better future and to believe in the possibility of change. The song's message is clear: dreaming awake is not just an escape but a call to action, urging us to envision and work towards a world where peace, love, and harmony prevail.
