No Soy de Roca

Lorenzo Antonio's song 'No Soy de Roca' delves into the emotional turmoil of a person who feels used and discarded in a romantic relationship. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of someone who initially brings joy and love into the protagonist's life, only to leave them feeling abandoned and unimportant. The metaphor of 'spring' arriving uninvited suggests a sudden and unexpected change, bringing warmth and beauty, but also a fleeting nature. This sets the stage for the emotional rollercoaster that follows.

The repeated assertion 'No soy de roca' (I am not made of rock) serves as a powerful declaration of the protagonist's humanity and vulnerability. They are not an inanimate object to be molded or discarded at will. The lyrics emphasize that the protagonist is not made of wax, cloth, or paper—materials that can be easily manipulated or destroyed. Instead, they are a living, breathing person with feelings and emotions. This metaphorical language underscores the pain of being treated as if they were devoid of emotional depth.

The song also explores the theme of unreciprocated love and the frustration that comes with it. The protagonist is willing to pursue the object of their affection, despite the emotional cost. The line 'Voy tras de ti en pos de tu boca' (I go after you in pursuit of your mouth) highlights their desperation and longing for genuine connection. However, the repeated refrain 'Voy a mostrarte que te equivocas' (I will show you that you are wrong) suggests a determination to prove their worth and challenge the dismissive treatment they have received. This blend of vulnerability and resolve makes 'No Soy de Roca' a poignant exploration of the complexities of love and self-worth.
