Mi Propia Cruz

Lucybell's song 'Mi Propia Cruz' delves into the themes of self-awareness, personal responsibility, and the struggle to break free from self-imposed burdens. The lyrics are rich with metaphors and imagery that convey a sense of introspection and liberation. The phrase 'Mi Propia Cruz,' which translates to 'My Own Cross,' symbolizes the personal struggles and burdens that individuals carry. The song suggests that these burdens are often self-imposed and that liberation comes from within.

The opening lines, 'Tratar de ver con ojos de papel,' or 'Trying to see with paper eyes,' suggest a superficial or fragile perspective that is easily destroyed by time. This imagery sets the tone for the song's exploration of the futility of certain efforts and the inevitability of change. The line 'El calendario no se cambia a tu favor,' meaning 'The calendar does not change in your favor,' reinforces the idea that time is indifferent to personal struggles.

As the song progresses, it emphasizes the importance of authenticity and self-acceptance. 'Tratar de ser camino sin disfraz,' or 'Trying to be a path without a disguise,' speaks to the need for genuine self-expression. The repeated assertion, 'No me muero ni en mi propia cruz,' or 'I do not die even on my own cross,' serves as a powerful declaration of resilience and self-determination. The song ultimately conveys a message of empowerment, urging listeners to take control of their own lives and not be weighed down by external or internal pressures.
