Lejos

In 'Lejos,' Mabbi delves into the theme of escapism and the yearning for authenticity. The song opens with a reflection on the futility of living a life that doesn't align with one's true self. Mabbi expresses a sense of disorientation and the feeling that everything is spinning out of control, a sentiment that many can relate to in the fast-paced modern world. This sets the stage for the central desire of the song: to break free from these constraints and find a place where one can truly be themselves.

The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a serene escape, reminiscing about the simple joys of being with a loved one under a palm tree, sharing their sorrows by the fire. This imagery evokes a sense of nostalgia and a longing for a simpler, more genuine connection. Mabbi's mention of feeling 'pachucho' (unwell) since the age of 18 suggests a long-standing struggle with these feelings, highlighting the depth of his desire for change and escape.

The chorus emphasizes this longing, with Mabbi inviting his partner to leave everything behind and find solace together in a place like Ibiza. The repetition of 'vámonos lejos tú y yo' (let's go far away, you and I) underscores the urgency and intensity of this desire. The song's refrain, 'let it go,' serves as a reminder to release the burdens and anxieties of everyday life and embrace the possibility of a new beginning. Through 'Lejos,' Mabbi captures the universal human desire for freedom, authenticity, and connection, making it a resonant anthem for anyone feeling trapped by their circumstances.
