Se Vale Soñar

Juan Cirerol's 'Se Vale Soñar' presents a vivid and imaginative dreamscape where the world operates under a different set of rules. The song's title, which translates to 'It's Okay to Dream,' sets the stage for a series of fantastical scenarios that reflect the artist's desires for an alternative reality. The lyrics whimsically imagine a world where rain showers sprinkle drugs instead of water, and where beer and tequila flow in rivers and seas. Gardens bloom with marijuana, coca, and opium instead of traditional flowers, painting a picture of a hedonistic paradise.

However, the song is not just a simple daydream about substance-induced bliss. Cirerol also touches on deeper societal issues, such as the absence of drug cartels and corrupt government—elements that plague many communities. The desire for a world without these negative forces suggests a yearning for peace and freedom from societal ills. The mention of having multiple lives, like a cat, to confront authority figures violently, further underscores the artist's frustration with the status quo and the oppressive forces in society.

Despite the song's escapist fantasies, Cirerol acknowledges the unlikelihood of such a world. The line 'Pero dios no cumple antojos, Ni endereza jorobados' suggests that not all desires can be fulfilled and that imperfections are a part of life. The song concludes with a resigned acceptance of reality, yet maintains that dreaming is not a sin. It's a reminder that while one can't always change the world, there's no harm in imagining a different one. 'Se Vale Soñar' is a blend of escapism, social commentary, and the bittersweet acceptance of life's limitations.
