No Es Lo Que Tu Crees

Los Master Plus's song 'No Es Lo Que Tu Crees' delves into the emotional turmoil of a person who is struggling to move on from a past relationship. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of someone who, despite trying to forget their former lover, finds themselves unable to do so. The protagonist admits to holding onto photos and memories, unable to erase them, and confesses that even though they have sought comfort in the arms of others, it only makes them miss their ex more.

The chorus, 'No es lo que tu crees,' which translates to 'It's not what you think,' is a plea for understanding. The protagonist wants their former lover to know that their attempts to move on have failed miserably. They acknowledge that they tried to forget but ended up realizing that their true understanding of love came from that relationship. This realization leads them to stop pretending and to admit their true feelings, despite the societal expectation that 'the show must go on.'

The song also touches on themes of pride and vulnerability. The protagonist questions the value of staying silent out of pride, recognizing that it is absurd to continue living in such a way. They openly admit to feeling empty and miserable without their former lover, despite engaging in fleeting pleasures like parties and one-night stands. The repeated plea for their ex to return underscores the depth of their longing and the realization that their former partner holds a 'stellar' place in their life.
