Dejando Atrás

Logos' song 'Dejando Atrás' delves into the themes of awakening and transformation amidst a world filled with resignation and despair. The lyrics paint a picture of a society where people have become accustomed to their bleak reality, accepting it as an inevitable part of life. The opening lines suggest a lack of understanding and awareness, hinting that many have never been taught to see beyond the surface, to look 'del otro lado del cielo' (the other side of the sky).

The song contrasts this resignation with a message of hope and rebirth. The repeated phrase 'la gente va resignándose' (people are resigning themselves) underscores the pervasive sense of defeat and submission. However, the narrator offers a beacon of hope, recognizing the presence of someone who is ready to 'nuevamente nacer' (be born again), leaving behind the darkness of a world that 'gira al revés' (spins backwards). This metaphorical rebirth signifies a profound personal transformation and a break from the cycle of despair.

The imagery of empty hands and confusing paths further emphasizes the desolation and lack of direction in the world. Yet, amidst this chaos, the song encourages a departure from the darkness, suggesting that true enlightenment and change come from within. The idea of being 'esclavos de una ilusión' (slaves to an illusion) highlights the false promises and empty dreams that people cling to, reinforcing the need for a deeper, more meaningful awakening. 'Dejando Atrás' is a powerful call to shed the old, dark ways and embrace a new beginning, filled with light and clarity.
