¿Que Podés Dar?

Las Pelotas' song 'Que podes dar?' delves into the theme of authenticity and the struggle to find genuine meaning in a world obsessed with appearances. The lyrics question the listener's true intentions and contributions, urging them to look beyond superficiality and societal expectations. The repeated inquiry, 'Que podés dar?' (What can you give?), challenges individuals to reflect on what they genuinely offer from their hearts, rather than what they merely project to others.

The song's verses highlight a sense of disillusionment with the superficiality of modern life. Lines like 'Siempre creerse un as, Sólo lo mejor' (Always believing oneself to be an ace, Only the best) critique the constant need to appear superior and successful. The chorus, with its poignant question, 'Que está en tu corazón y no en aparentar' (What is in your heart and not in appearances), emphasizes the importance of inner truth over external validation.

The imagery of 'tanta gente y el desierto' (so many people and the desert) evokes a feeling of isolation amidst the crowd, suggesting that despite being surrounded by others, one can still feel alone if they are not true to themselves. The desire to 'salir sin ver más' (leave without seeing more) reflects a yearning to escape the facade and find a more meaningful existence. The song ultimately calls for introspection and a return to genuine values, urging listeners to break free from the cycle of pretense and embrace their true selves.
