Oiran Tu Voz, Oiran Nuestra Voz

Leuzemia's song "Oiran Tu Voz, Oiran Nuestra Voz" is a powerful anthem that speaks to the marginalized voices within society, particularly those of the urban poor and the subcultures that thrive in the streets. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of the gritty reality of street life, with references to the smells and sights that define these spaces. The opening lines, "Hedores que emanan dentro de la piel en un finito vaiven," evoke a sense of the visceral, lived experience of those who inhabit these urban environments.

The song also touches on themes of cultural reclamation and resistance. The line "Peruanicemos la patria dicen si nunca te vieron cantar..." criticizes the superficial calls for national unity and cultural pride that ignore the voices of the people who actually live and breathe the culture every day. This is a call to action, urging the listener to recognize and uplift these voices. The mention of "poetas sub-urbanos" and "guitarras callejeras" highlights the rich, often overlooked cultural contributions of street artists and musicians.

As the song progresses, it becomes a rallying cry for these marginalized voices to be heard. The repeated refrain of "oiran tu voz" (they will hear your voice) serves as both a promise and a declaration. The imagery of singing in the streets and in gatherings underscores the communal and inclusive nature of this cultural movement. Leuzemia, known for their punk rock ethos, uses this song to amplify the voices of the disenfranchised, making it a poignant and powerful piece of social commentary.
