The lyrics are delivered in Spanish and capture the intense confrontation between the characters Akaza, a powerful demon, and the demon slayers Tanjiro Kamado and Giyu Tomioka.
The song begins by highlighting the tragic reality that demons were once human, alluding to the backstory within the anime where humans are turned into demons by the main antagonist, Muzan Kibutsuji.

The song ends with a cliffhanger, leaving the outcome of the battle uncertain and reflecting the ongoing struggle between humans and demons in the series.
