The Fluidity of the Soul: Analyzing 'Ser de Agua' by Presuntos Implicados

Presuntos Implicados' song 'Ser de Agua' delves into the fluid and adaptable nature of the human soul. The lyrics open with a scene of musical preparation, where Juan Luis brings new strings, and the narrator is eager to sing. This sets a tone of renewal and readiness, suggesting that the act of making music is a metaphor for expressing one's inner self. The dense air within the local space symbolizes the weight of unexpressed emotions and thoughts.

The chorus, 'Si abrimos el balcón del alma podréis ver que soy de agua,' translates to 'If we open the balcony of the soul, you will see that I am made of water.' This metaphor of being 'made of water' signifies the fluidity, transparency, and adaptability of the human spirit. Water, in its various forms, represents different emotional states. When the water is stormy, it is pushed by the wind, symbolizing turbulent emotions driven by external forces. Conversely, when the water is bubbly, it is elevated by the wind, representing lighter, more joyful emotions.

The repetition of 'Hoy sacaremos todo afuera, esta partida es fácil si la juegas tú' emphasizes the importance of expressing one's true self and emotions. It translates to 'Today we will bring everything out, this game is easy if you play it.' This line suggests that life becomes more manageable when one is authentic and open. The song encourages listeners to embrace their emotional fluidity and to share their true selves with others, making the 'game' of life easier and more fulfilling when played with honesty and openness.
