Sobreviviré

Naiara's 'Sobreviviré' is a powerful ballad that speaks to the resilience of the human spirit in the face of adversity. The song begins with the artist expressing the anxieties and fears that are common to all, particularly in youth. The 'ansia de la juventud' (anxiety of youth) suggests a restlessness and a desire to confront the challenges of life. The mention of 'la puta realidad' (the damn reality) indicates a confrontation with the harsh truths of the world, which can often bring one to a point of despair. Despite this, the singer claims there is no one more fragile than herself, highlighting a deep sense of vulnerability.

The second verse introduces a contrast with the imagery of 'Pelo acrílico, cuero y tacón' (synthetic hair, leather, and high heels) and 'Maquillaje hasta en el corazón' (makeup even on the heart), which symbolizes a persona of toughness and resilience that the singer adopts. This persona is a defense mechanism against the world's harshness, and it's a way to survive the night that 'lubrica la ciudad' (lubricates the city), suggesting a sense of revival and the city's gritty nightlife. The singer claims there is no one tougher than her, showing the duality of her fragility and strength.

The chorus, 'Sobreviviré' (I will survive), is a declaration of the singer's determination to find a place for herself amidst the 'escombros de mi soledad' (rubble of my loneliness). This place is described as a 'Paraíso extraño' (strange paradise), which is a space of solitude away from a past lover. The desire for freedom, even if it's painful, underscores the theme of self-liberation and the willingness to endure pain for the sake of personal growth. The song is a testament to the inner strength required to overcome personal struggles and the journey towards self-discovery and independence.
