De Lo Ocuro a Lo Puro

Sebastian Yepes' song "De Lo Ocuro a Lo Puro" is a heartfelt exploration of transformation, love, and healing. The lyrics depict a journey from the metaphorical darkness to a state of purity, guided by love and emotional resilience. The opening lines, "Vengo del sur voy camino hacia el norte / de amor voy llenando el pasaporte," suggest a physical and emotional journey, where love serves as the passport to a better place. This journey is not just geographical but also spiritual, as the singer moves from negative experiences to positive ones, emphasizing that the soul can endure and overcome hardships.

The recurring theme of being a "pasajero de lo verdadero" (passenger of the truth) highlights the importance of authenticity and honesty in this journey. The singer consciously chooses to remember the good and forget the bad, a sentiment echoed in the lines, "olvido lo malo, recuerdo lo bueno / el resto no dejo que me importe." This selective memory is a coping mechanism, allowing the singer to focus on positive experiences and relationships, thereby fostering emotional well-being.

The chorus, "Se acaba lo oscuro, regreso a lo puro / no temo perderme, te lo juro," reinforces the idea of moving away from darkness and embracing purity. The singer finds solace and healing in love, as indicated by the repeated lines, "Es tu remedio el que vale / alivíame la razón con tus sales." Here, love is portrayed as a remedy that alleviates pain and removes emotional toxins. The song concludes with a sense of relief and optimism, as the singer no longer feels pain and recognizes that even past suffering was a form of love, encapsulated in the line, "si también el dolor fue otra forma de amor."
