Como No

Jesse & Joy's song 'Como No' delves into the theme of broken promises and disillusionment in a romantic relationship. The lyrics express the pain and confusion felt when one's partner fails to live up to the grand declarations of love they once made. The song begins with a recollection of promises given, such as eternal love and grand gestures like giving the moon and the stars. These promises are described as the kind of things one says when led by the heart, suggesting a contrast between the idealistic words and the reality of the situation.

The chorus repeats the phrase 'Como no,' which translates to 'How could it not be?' or 'Of course,' followed by affirmations of undying love and commitment. However, the repetition of these phrases takes on a sarcastic tone as the singer questions the sincerity of these vows. The song then shifts to a more confrontational stance, with the singer demanding an explanation for why, despite the partner's claims that they couldn't live without them, they are still present after the love has evidently faded.

The final verses of 'Como No' reflect a realization and a call for authenticity. The singer acknowledges that words have lost their value and expresses a desire for genuine love over empty promises. The song ends with a poignant message about the ease of making promises compared to the difficulty of actually keeping them, highlighting the importance of actions over words in a relationship.
