Ojos (feat. Granuja)

In 'Ojos,' Métricas Frías, featuring Granuja, delves into the complexities and contradictions of modern life. The song opens with a reflection on how people only reach out when things are going well, highlighting the superficiality of social interactions. Despite outward appearances of success, the artist reveals an inner turmoil, suggesting that material success does not equate to inner peace. This duality is a recurring theme, as Métricas Frías navigates through life's challenges, acknowledging the high cost of living and the inevitability of death.

The chorus, '¿Para qué ojos si no quieren ver?' (Why have eyes if they don't want to see?), serves as a powerful metaphor for societal ignorance and apathy. The repetition emphasizes the frustration with people who choose to remain oblivious to the harsh realities around them. This sentiment is further explored in the verses, where the artist criticizes the performative nature of society—people who pray while sinning, and those who ignore the suffering of others. The imagery of tears falling into canteens and the world being a mess that the artist did not come to clean up underscores a sense of disillusionment and resignation.

Granuja's verse adds another layer to the song, touching on themes of self-worth and societal pressure. The line 'No estoy en el Forbes, todo te lo absorbes' (I'm not in Forbes, you absorb everything) critiques the obsession with wealth and status. The verse also addresses the noise and pollution of modern life, both literal and metaphorical, and the struggle to find one's place in a world that often feels hostile. The recurring question, '¿Para qué ojos si no quieren ver?' serves as a poignant reminder of the willful ignorance that pervades society, urging listeners to open their eyes and confront the uncomfortable truths.
