LIKE FOR IG

Gonzy's song "LIKE FOR IG" delves into the superficiality and emptiness that can often accompany relationships built on social media personas. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a relationship where one partner is more in love with their own image than with the other person. The opening lines, "Lo único que tú amaste fue tu propia cara / Ahora me pregunta por qué no somos nada," set the tone for the song, highlighting the self-obsession and lack of genuine connection that led to the relationship's downfall.

The song critiques the facade that people often maintain on social media, questioning the authenticity of the partner's identity without the trappings of nightlife, travel, and makeup. Lines like "Dime si eres la misma sin la discoteca / Dime si eres la misma sin andar en fiesta" challenge the partner to reveal their true self, stripped of the superficial elements that they use to construct their online persona. This reflects a broader commentary on how social media can distort reality and create unrealistic expectations in relationships.

Gonzy also touches on the lack of emotional support and understanding in the relationship. The lyrics, "A ti no te gustaban las canciones de mi situación pasada / Pero no me ofreciste nada pa' superarla," reveal a partner who is indifferent to the artist's struggles and growth. The repeated refrain, "Yo sé que tú vira' si te doy like por IG," underscores the shallow nature of the connection, suggesting that the partner's affection can be easily swayed by something as trivial as a social media like. This line encapsulates the central theme of the song: the fleeting and insubstantial nature of relationships that are more concerned with appearances than with genuine emotional bonds.
