Vuelvo A Traficar

Melendi's song 'Vuelvo A Traficar' is a raw and candid exploration of the struggles and contradictions faced by individuals in modern society. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a person who feels trapped in a monotonous and unfulfilling job, yearning for a sense of freedom and purpose. The repeated phrase 'Hoy me voy a comer el mundo' (Today I'm going to conquer the world) signifies a desire to break free from the constraints of daily life and take control of one's destiny.

The song delves into the duality of having material wealth ('Me sobra el dinero, me faltan las pelas') but lacking true happiness and fulfillment. This paradox is further emphasized by the character's decision to return to 'trafficking,' which can be interpreted metaphorically as engaging in risky or rebellious behavior to escape the mundanity of life. The lyrics mention 'ahogando mis penas, chupando tarjeta' (drowning my sorrows, swiping cards), suggesting a cycle of self-destructive habits as a means of coping with dissatisfaction.

Melendi also touches on the societal pressures and expectations that often dictate our choices. The line 'Y si el trabajo dignifica, o deja de dignificar' (And if work dignifies, or stops dignifying) questions the conventional belief that work is inherently noble or fulfilling. The song challenges the listener to reconsider what truly brings meaning and joy to life, even if it means defying societal norms. Through its gritty and honest portrayal of inner conflict and the quest for freedom, 'Vuelvo A Traficar' resonates with anyone who has ever felt the weight of societal expectations and the desire to break free from them.
