Escucha Mi Corazón

Oniron's song 'Escucha Mi Corazón' is a powerful plea for empathy and social awareness. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a world filled with insensitivity and self-centeredness, urging listeners to open their hearts and look beyond their own problems. The phrase 'Humanamente muerto, insensibilidad' (Humanly dead, insensitivity) sets the tone, highlighting a society that has become numb to the suffering of others. This insensitivity is further emphasized by the line 'Sumido en tus entuertos, no existe alteridad' (Engulfed in your entanglements, otherness does not exist), suggesting a lack of empathy and understanding for those who are different or in need.

The chorus, 'Escucha lo que digo, abrí tu corazón' (Listen to what I say, open your heart), serves as a repeated call to action. It implores the listener to stop being self-absorbed ('No mires más a tu ombligo buscando solución' - Stop looking at your navel for solutions) and to pay attention to the broader issues affecting society. The song highlights the plight of the less fortunate, mentioning 'Estómagos vacíos sin techo ni cobijo' (Empty stomachs without roof or shelter) and 'La bronca de los míos, el llanto de sus hijos' (The anger of my people, the cries of their children). These lines bring to light the harsh realities faced by many, urging a collective response.

The song culminates in a call for unity and revolution: 'Hay un mundo allá afuera que busca tu reacción, Unamos nuestras fuerzas por la revolución' (There is a world out there seeking your reaction, Let’s unite our forces for the revolution). This final message is a rallying cry for collective action and social change. By repeating 'Escucha mi corazón' (Listen to my heart), Oniron emphasizes the need for heartfelt empathy and genuine concern for others. The song is a poignant reminder that true solutions come from looking outward and working together to address societal issues.
