Espermato

In 'Espermato' by Libido, the lyrics delve into themes of existentialism, rebellion, and cosmic struggle. The song opens with a striking metaphor, 'No quiero ser el espermatozoide,' which translates to 'I don't want to be the sperm.' This line sets the tone for the protagonist's desire to break free from predetermined paths and societal expectations. The imagery of being a 'passenger of an asteroid' further emphasizes a sense of helplessness and lack of control over one's destiny. The protagonist's frustration is palpable as they express a desire to 'conspire' but feel restricted by external forces.

The song continues with a reflection on past actions, 'Se que fui la mente que derrumbó / Todo el universo que estaba aqui,' meaning 'I know I was the mind that brought down / The whole universe that was here.' This suggests a sense of guilt or responsibility for disrupting a previously stable state. The protagonist acknowledges the lack of direction, 'No tenemos a donde ir,' or 'We have nowhere to go,' highlighting a feeling of being lost in the aftermath of their actions. The plea for rest, 'Sera mejor / Que duermas aqui,' indicates a need for respite amidst the chaos.

As the song progresses, the protagonist seeks empowerment through communication and connection, 'Telecomunicame al poder / De la mafia para desactivarla,' which translates to 'Telecommunicate me to the power / Of the mafia to deactivate it.' This line suggests a desire to dismantle corrupt systems and find a solution to govern and reach an end goal. The protagonist identifies as a 'special spirit' and part of a 'cosmic operation,' indicating a sense of higher purpose and belonging to a larger cosmic struggle. The closing lines, 'Soy de tu constelacion / Cosmica operacion / El planeta vengador,' or 'I am from your constellation / Cosmic operation / The avenger planet,' reinforce the theme of cosmic rebellion and the quest for justice and control in an expansive universe.
