Cuadondo

In 'Cuadondo,' Santy-P delves deep into the complexities of self-perception, mental health, and the transformative power of love. The song opens with a stark admission of suffering and disillusionment, despite the artist's young age. The line 'Tengo 19 y sufrí como 86' poignantly captures the weight of his experiences, suggesting a life filled with hardships that have aged him prematurely. This sets the tone for a narrative that oscillates between self-loathing and a desperate search for meaning and connection.

The recurring metaphor of being a 'cuadrado' (square) who becomes 'redondo' (round) with the presence of a significant other is central to the song. This transformation signifies how love can soften the rigid edges of one's personality, making them feel more complete and less isolated. The artist acknowledges that this person saw something in him when everything else was chaotic, providing a sense of healing that even music ('las cajas y los bombo') couldn't offer. This relationship is a beacon of hope in an otherwise tumultuous life.

However, the song also explores the persistent struggle with self-worth and the fear of losing this newfound stability. The artist's reflections in the mirror reveal a deep-seated dissatisfaction with himself, and despite moments of confidence, he admits to a profound self-hatred. The lyrics 'Me miro en el espejo y lo veo todo mal' and 'En el fondo me odio más que cualquier otro mortal' highlight this internal battle. The song concludes with a plea for acceptance and a desire to move forward, leaving behind the pain of the past. The repeated assurance 'Mientras me elijas esta todo bien' underscores the importance of being chosen and loved, which provides a fragile but vital sense of security.
