Facing the Mirror: A Journey of Self-Realization in 'Quiero ser yo'

In 'Quiero ser yo,' Savia delves into the themes of self-awareness, disillusionment, and the quest for authenticity. The song opens with a stark confrontation, where the narrator no longer recognizes the person they are addressing. This individual’s deceitful facade has crumbled, revealing a predatory nature symbolized by eyes that 'only seek blood.' The imagery here is powerful, suggesting a deep betrayal and a loss of trust. The narrator feels isolated, yet there is a sense of mutual desolation as both parties stand 'face to face with nothing to lose.' This sets the stage for a raw and honest exchange, devoid of excuses and lies.

As the song progresses, the narrator invites the other person to listen to the lessons learned from past hardships. The reference to 'bad times' and 'those guys wanting to see [him] fall' hints at a history of struggle and opposition. This could be interpreted as a metaphor for societal pressures or personal adversities that have shaped the narrator’s worldview. The line 'I am an old dog in this world' conveys a sense of weariness and resilience, indicating that superficial gestures like a smile or a sweet word no longer hold any sway over him. The narrator emphasizes the importance of taking responsibility and moving beyond empty promises.

The climax of the song is a poignant reflection on the narrator’s existential choice. He admits to having made a mistake in choosing the world he was born into, a powerful statement about feeling out of place or disillusioned with one’s circumstances. The dream of 'just being myself' and 'deciding for myself' encapsulates the core message of the song: a yearning for self-determination and authenticity. Savia’s 'Quiero ser yo' is a compelling exploration of personal growth, the shedding of illusions, and the relentless pursuit of one’s true self.
