Unmasking Deception: The Power of Media in 'Begira'

The song 'Begira' by Su Ta Gar delves into the theme of deception and manipulation, particularly through the lens of media influence. The lyrics, written in Basque, convey a strong message about the pervasive lies and cover-ups perpetuated by those in power. The phrase 'beti dabiltza gezurretan' translates to 'they are always lying,' setting the tone for the song's critical perspective on the authorities who conceal their mistakes and mislead the public.

The chorus, 'begira,' which means 'look,' serves as a call to action, urging listeners to pay attention to the reality behind the facade. The song highlights how television is used as an official tool to propagate false narratives, as seen in the line 'telebista erabiltzen dute esalki ofizial modura.' This reflects a broader commentary on how media can be manipulated to shape public perception and maintain control over the populace.

Su Ta Gar, known for their politically charged lyrics and heavy metal sound, use 'Begira' to express their frustration and anger towards the systemic deceit that plagues their society. The song resonates with those who feel disillusioned by the constant barrage of misinformation and the erosion of trust in institutions. By encouraging listeners to 'look' and see the truth for themselves, Su Ta Gar empowers their audience to question and challenge the status quo, fostering a sense of awareness and resistance against manipulation.
