De Aqui Pa Ya (feat. Lacrim, The Plug y SRNO)
MORAD (M.D.L.R.)
Navigating Life's Struggles: A Journey from Here to There
MORAD's song "De Aqui Pa Ya" featuring Lacrim, The Plug, and SRNO is a raw and honest portrayal of the struggles and aspirations of individuals trying to navigate their way out of difficult circumstances. The repetitive chorus, "De aquí-aquí, pa'llá, pa'llá," which translates to "From here to there," emphasizes the constant movement and search for a better way of life. This phrase encapsulates the essence of the song, highlighting the relentless pursuit of improvement and escape from the harsh realities of street life.
The lyrics delve into the challenges faced by those living in tough environments, where the lack of financial resources often pushes individuals towards crime. Lacrim's verse touches on themes of loyalty and survival, mentioning how the lack of money can lead to desperate actions, such as violence and theft. The reference to "Forcella," a notorious neighborhood in Naples, Italy, known for its criminal activities, adds a layer of authenticity and global context to the narrative. The mention of "insha'Allah," an Arabic phrase meaning "God willing," reflects a sense of hope and faith amidst the struggle.
MORAD's verse further explores personal pain and unresolved issues, with lines like "Porque pena ni la mía he cura'o" (Because I haven't even healed my own pain) and "Y sigo con la herida' sangrada' sin vena'" (And I continue with bleeding wounds without veins). These lines convey a deep sense of emotional turmoil and the ongoing battle to overcome past traumas. The song also touches on the idea of perception versus reality, with the phrase "Ojo' que no ven, corazón que no siente" (Eyes that don't see, heart that doesn't feel), suggesting that ignorance can sometimes be a form of protection.
"De Aqui Pa Ya" is a powerful reflection on the complexities of life in marginalized communities, where hope, pain, and resilience coexist. The collaboration between MORAD, Lacrim, The Plug, and SRNO brings together diverse perspectives, creating a rich tapestry of experiences and emotions that resonate with listeners from various backgrounds.
