The Journey of Growth and Letting Go
In SHDW's song 'Crecer,' the artist delves into the bittersweet process of growing up and the inevitable changes that come with it. The lyrics reflect on the passage of time and how it alters relationships and personal circumstances. SHDW acknowledges the pain of seeing people take different paths and the loneliness that can accompany such changes. However, the song emphasizes that growth often requires leaving certain things behind, even if they once brought immense happiness.
The song also touches on the disillusionment that can come with maturity. SHDW describes how the world can lose its vibrant colors, turning gray as one faces the harsh realities of life. The metaphor of having one's wings clipped to conform to societal expectations is particularly poignant, illustrating how dreams and aspirations can be stifled. Yet, the artist encourages listeners to keep dreaming and to turn those dreams into reality, despite the challenges and fears that may arise.
'Crecer' is ultimately a message of resilience and hope. SHDW reassures that while the journey of growth is complicated and fraught with difficulties, it is also rewarding. The repeated lines about the calm after the storm serve as a reminder that perseverance through tough times leads to tranquility and fulfillment. The song's blend of introspection and motivation makes it a relatable anthem for anyone navigating the complexities of growing up and finding their place in the world.
