Na' En La Nevera

Ojos de Brujo's song "Na' En La Nevera" paints a vivid picture of a night filled with hunger, frustration, and fleeting moments of joy. The lyrics begin with the protagonist waking up in the middle of the night, driven by an insatiable hunger. The imagery of stumbling into the kitchen only to find an empty fridge sets the tone for the song, highlighting the harsh reality of poverty. The protagonist's growling stomach and cold feet emphasize the physical discomfort and desperation they feel.

As the night progresses, the protagonist reflects on their daily struggle to make ends meet. Singing in the streets for hours yields little money, barely enough to eat. The frustration is palpable when they encounter someone who questions their intentions, suspecting them of seeking money for drugs rather than food. This interaction underscores the stigma and judgment faced by those living in poverty. The protagonist's anger and disappointment are evident as they decide to leave, feeling misunderstood and disrespected.

The mood shifts when the protagonist meets friends and spends a joyful night together, indulging in marijuana and hashish while playing music. This moment of camaraderie and escape offers a brief respite from their struggles. However, the night takes a dark turn when the protagonist returns home to find their place in disarray and experiences a blackout. The song concludes with the protagonist waking up from what feels like a nightmare, finding solace in the fact that, despite the empty fridge, they are alive and have survived another night. The song captures the cyclical nature of hardship and the small moments of joy that provide temporary relief from the harshness of reality.
