La Decisión

Jerikó's song "La Decisión" is a powerful anthem that delves into themes of betrayal, corruption, and the resolve to fight back against oppressive forces. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a society grappling with deceit and exploitation, particularly by those in power. The opening lines, "A través de la pantalla pegaste el salto / Y aquella vuelta en Rosario / Invadiste el campo para figurar," suggest a figure who has manipulated media and public perception to climb the social and political ladder, only to betray the very people who supported them.

The song's chorus, "Amanecido resisto / Es hora de terminar / Sabe que sos mi enemigo / Hoy más que nunca voy a tomar," reflects a moment of awakening and resistance. The protagonist recognizes the enemy and resolves to take decisive action. This sentiment is further emphasized in the lines, "Provocación en la angustia cuando marchamos / Y el sentimiento golpeado nunca perdona / No te olvidará," which highlight the collective pain and enduring memory of betrayal felt by the people.

As the song progresses, Jerikó addresses the consequences of corruption and betrayal, with lines like "Mediáticos traidores, todo saquearon / Y escapan cuando ardemos / Tarde o temprano van a pagar." The imagery of media traitors looting and fleeing when the people rise up underscores the cowardice and eventual downfall of those who exploit their power. The repeated declaration, "La decisión de enterrar tu circo hoy / Ya no darle mi atención," signifies a firm decision to reject and dismantle the corrupt system, stripping it of its influence and control. The final lines, "Todo cae y caerás vos / Sin amigos y sin Dios," serve as a stark warning to the oppressors, predicting their ultimate isolation and downfall.
