The Tormented Soul: A Tale of Misunderstanding and Tragedy

Green A's song "Exorcismo" delves into the harrowing experience of a young individual grappling with severe psychological and neurological issues, misinterpreted as demonic possession. The narrative begins with the protagonist recounting a traumatic event in their adolescence—the death of their parents in an accident. This tragedy leads them to live with their aunt, a devoutly religious woman who misinterprets the protagonist's symptoms as signs of demonic possession.

The lyrics vividly describe the protagonist's physical and mental struggles, including involuntary movements, self-harm, and uncontrollable outbursts of obscenities. These symptoms are later revealed to be manifestations of Tourette syndrome, a neurological disorder characterized by tics and coprolalia. However, the aunt, influenced by her religious beliefs, seeks the help of a priest for an exorcism instead of medical professionals. The exorcism rituals, which include physical restraint and deprivation, only exacerbate the protagonist's suffering, leading to a tragic climax where the protagonist kills the priest in a desperate act of self-defense and frustration.

The song critiques the dangers of religious fanaticism and the stigmatization of mental health issues. It highlights the protagonist's plea for medical help, which goes unheard due to the aunt's belief that science is the work of Satan. The repeated refrain questioning the existence and role of God underscores the protagonist's inner turmoil and the failure of religious rituals to provide relief. The song ends with the protagonist being diagnosed and treated for Tourette syndrome, but with a chilling revelation that they do not regret their actions, hinting at the deep psychological scars left by their ordeal.

"Exorcismo" is a powerful commentary on the intersection of mental health, religion, and societal misunderstanding. It calls for empathy and proper medical intervention for those suffering from neurological and psychological disorders, rather than resorting to archaic and harmful practices.
