Dime dios mio por

Patrulla 81's song "Dime dios mio por" delves into the emotional and existential struggles of an individual grappling with their place in the world. The lyrics express a deep sense of dissatisfaction and frustration with one's social and economic status. The protagonist questions why they cannot be content and why they were placed in a lower position in life, feeling the weight of societal disdain and the erosion of their dignity. This sentiment is poignantly captured in the lines, "Por ser de abajo me despreciaron / Y pisotearon mi dignidad," highlighting the harsh realities faced by those in marginalized positions.

The song also explores the themes of ambition and the relentless pursuit of dreams. The protagonist acknowledges that both love and money come with risks, and despite past failures, they are determined to succeed. The metaphor of "arañar el cielo" (scratching the sky) symbolizes their lofty aspirations and the lengths they are willing to go to achieve them. This determination is underscored by the resolve to either succeed or perish in the attempt, as expressed in the lines, "Si jugando he perdido / Hoy quiero arañar el suelo y lo voy a lograr / O en la batalla me muero."

Additionally, the song touches on the theme of nostalgia and the longing for one's homeland. The protagonist is haunted by memories of a cherished place and feels a sense of reproach from the winds for not returning. However, the inability to return empty-handed, without having achieved their dreams, creates a poignant tension. This internal conflict is encapsulated in the lines, "Es q mis manos estan vacias / Y asi no puedo volver jamas / Yo tube un sueño q no e logrado / Si no lo logro no vuelvo mas." The plea for divine assistance, "Dios mio dame tu mano," reflects a deep yearning for support and guidance in their arduous journey.
