Máscaras (part. Dj Gpromode)

Penyair's song "Máscaras (feat. Dj Gpromode)" delves deep into the human experience of wearing metaphorical masks to navigate societal pressures and personal struggles. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of the daily grind and the emotional toll it takes on individuals. The artist begins by highlighting the necessity of maintaining a facade, even when it feels disingenuous. This is evident in lines like "Ir para el trabajo con la cara de ponqué" and "Sonreírle a alguien aunque no tenga un por qué," which reflect the need to put on a happy face for the sake of family and societal expectations.

The song also explores the disparity between appearances and reality. Penyair contrasts genuine love found in humble circumstances with superficial relationships among the wealthy, emphasizing that material wealth does not equate to true happiness or support. This theme is further developed with observations about how societal pressures can lead to poor decisions and mental turmoil, as seen in the lines "He visto como la presión hace que la gente forme decisiones que hacen que todo su ser se torne malo y en la mente termina siendo un desorden."

The recurring chorus, "Máscaras tapan la claridad, rostros con pena se tapan, y de su ser se escapan," serves as a poignant reminder of how these masks obscure one's true self and emotions. The song suggests that these masks are a defense mechanism against a world that often demands conformity and punishes authenticity. Penyair's raw and honest lyrics resonate with anyone who has felt the need to hide their true self to fit in or survive in a challenging environment.
