Veneno

ReyToro's song 'Veneno' is a powerful anthem of rebellion and defiance. The lyrics paint a picture of a protagonist who is unapologetically a 'simple sinner' and refuses to conform to societal expectations or judgments. The opening lines set the tone for the song, with the singer declaring that he will not surrender, even in the face of his final judgment. This defiance is further emphasized by the line 'lamento si antes de llorar debo reírme,' suggesting that he finds humor in the face of adversity and refuses to be brought down by it.

The recurring theme of 'veneno' (poison) throughout the song serves as a metaphor for the protagonist's attitude and approach to life. The lyrics suggest that the protagonist and his allies are not the cure but the poison, indicating that they are the antithesis of what society expects them to be. This is particularly evident in the lines 'para enseñarle debemos decir mas que la cura somos el veneno,' which translates to 'to teach them, we must say that more than the cure, we are the poison.' This metaphor extends to their view on money and societal values, as they claim to have 'veneno' for money, indicating a rejection of materialism and conventional success.

The song also touches on themes of premature judgment and the protagonist's awareness of societal hypocrisy. The lines 'diagnosticaron mi final antes de tiempo' and 'pensaron que si claudicaba iría al cielo' reflect a sense of being judged and condemned before his time, and a refusal to conform to these expectations. The protagonist's wakefulness while others sleep symbolizes his awareness and resistance to societal norms and the 'siniestro show' or sinister show that society puts on. This song is a bold declaration of individuality and resistance against societal pressures, making it a powerful and thought-provoking piece.
