De Amar

La Vela Puerca's song 'De Amar' delves into the life of an individual who, despite not fitting into societal norms, possesses a unique and fierce spirit. The lyrics paint a picture of someone who, like a boxer or a runner, is driven by an inner fire and a dream. This person is not a conventional winner but carries the 'chispa de saber'—the spark of knowing. This knowledge encompasses the beauty of life's emotional spectrum, from laughter to tears, and the profound ability to love.

The song contrasts the protagonist's fierce angel with the more ordinary experiences of others. This angel symbolizes an intense inner strength and vision that allows the protagonist to see and feel things beyond the ordinary. The repeated mention of 'saber'—to know—highlights the depth of understanding and emotional intelligence that the protagonist possesses. This knowledge is not about intellectual prowess but about the wisdom gained from experiencing the full range of human emotions and the ability to love deeply.

'El no nació pa' vencedor'—he was not born to be a winner—emphasizes that societal success is not the protagonist's goal. Instead, his purpose is to soften hearts and bring tenderness into the world. The song suggests that true power lies in the ability to dream and love, even if it means not fitting into conventional molds. The protagonist's journey is one of resilience, navigating the challenges of being different while embracing the beauty of his unique perspective and emotional depth.
