The Power of Togetherness in 'Prefiero' by Steven Universo
In 'Prefiero,' Steven Universo explores the profound themes of unity, support, and mutual growth. The song's lyrics convey a deep sense of partnership and the strength that comes from being together. The opening lines, 'Prefiero soñar / Ser alto y capaz,' suggest a desire to dream big and be capable, but this aspiration is tied to the presence and support of another person. The phrase 'Dá igual tu lugar / Que habrás de iniciar / Tú cuentas conmigo, ya lo ves' emphasizes that no matter where the other person is or what they are starting, they can always count on the singer's support. This highlights the importance of being there for each other, regardless of circumstances.
The chorus, 'Prefiero ser siempre una parte de ti, vaya honor / Sí, soy junto a ti mejor,' underscores the idea that being a part of someone else's life is an honor and that together, they are better. This sentiment is further reinforced in the lines, 'Da igual el lugar / Confío sin más / Estando contigo soy tenaz,' which express unwavering trust and tenacity when together. The repetition of 'Sabré qué hacer / Sabré qué decir / Sabré que palabras usarás' indicates a deep understanding and connection between the two individuals, suggesting that they know each other so well that they can anticipate each other's needs and actions.
The song culminates with the heartfelt declaration, 'Y es que en esta vida lo que añoro es que siempre / Me des calor / Yo junto a ti / Prefiero vivir / Mi amor.' This final verse encapsulates the essence of the song: the longing for warmth and the preference to live life together with the one they love. 'Prefiero' is a beautiful ode to the power of togetherness, mutual support, and the joy of sharing life with someone special.
