Sobre El Agua

Rescate's song 'Sobre El Agua' delves into the themes of faith, redemption, and overcoming personal struggles. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a journey, both literal and metaphorical, where the protagonist revisits past mistakes and navigates through treacherous waters. The opening lines, 'Vuelvo a navegar, por lugares que / No debí pasar porque naufragué,' set the stage for a narrative of reflection and resilience. The protagonist acknowledges past failures but is compelled to venture forth once more, driven by an inexplicable force.

The recurring motif of walking on water is a powerful metaphor for faith and trust. The lines 'Otra vez, siento que me dices ven / Camina sobre el agua / Como la primera vez' evoke the biblical story of Peter walking on water towards Jesus. This imagery underscores the idea of stepping out in faith despite fears and uncertainties. The protagonist's determination to focus on the guiding presence, 'Me fijo en tu mirada no me quiero distraer / Para no caer,' highlights the importance of unwavering trust and the struggle to maintain it amidst doubts.

The song also touches on themes of loneliness and the deceptive nature of the heart. The verse 'Intenté escapar de mi soledad / Fui detrás de cosas que me hicieron mal / Este corazón me volvió a engañar' speaks to the human tendency to seek solace in harmful places and the subsequent realization of being misled by one's own desires. However, the repeated assurance of a guiding hand, 'Y aunque dude estará tu mano / Caminaré no me hundiré,' offers a message of hope and redemption. The protagonist's resolve to keep moving forward, despite fears and past mistakes, encapsulates the essence of the song: a journey of faith, redemption, and the courage to face one's inner battles.
