Orgullo (feat. Alexxander)

In 'Orgullo,' ĹIAZ, featuring Alexxander, delves into the internal battle against pride and the yearning for spiritual liberation. The song opens with a sense of confusion and self-consumption, as the protagonist feels overwhelmed by their own emotions and pride. This pride is depicted as a barrier that distances them from a higher power, referred to as 'Padre' or Father, which is a common metaphor for God in many spiritual contexts. The repeated plea for liberation from pride underscores the protagonist's recognition of their own limitations and the need for divine intervention.

The lyrics are rich with metaphors that illustrate the internal conflict. The protagonist describes themselves as a 'cordero en medio de lobos' (a lamb among wolves), highlighting their vulnerability in a world filled with dangers and temptations. This metaphor extends to their mind, which they describe as their own worst enemy, filled with thoughts that lead to self-doubt and despair. The struggle is not just external but deeply internal, as they battle their own desires and fears. The recurring theme of surrendering to a higher power is evident as the protagonist acknowledges that they cannot overcome these challenges alone and must rely on divine strength.

The song also touches on themes of redemption and the transformative power of faith. The protagonist's plea for more of God's presence and the acknowledgment that their soul fades without it speaks to the deep spiritual longing for connection and redemption. The lyrics convey a sense of desperation and urgency, as the protagonist seeks to be freed from the darkness that threatens to consume them. The song's repetitive structure, with the chorus echoing the plea for liberation, reinforces the intensity of this spiritual struggle and the hope for divine intervention.
