Soy Yo

The song 'Soy Yo' by Volumen X is a poignant expression of unrequited love and the deep, often silent feelings that accompany it. The lyrics reveal the inner turmoil and intense emotions of someone who loves deeply, yet remains unseen and unacknowledged by the object of their affection. The repeated phrase 'soy yo' which translates to 'it's me,' emphasizes the identity of the speaker as the one who harbors these feelings.

Throughout the song, the lyrics describe various actions and emotions that highlight the depth of the speaker's love. From writing secret love poems to praying for the beloved, the speaker details the lengths they go to express their love, albeit quietly. The use of phrases like 'quien se muere por hablarte' (who dies to talk to you) and 'quien pierde la cordura al timbre de tu voz' (who loses sanity at the sound of your voice) illustrates the overwhelming and consuming nature of their feelings.

The chorus of the song serves as a powerful declaration of the speaker's love and devotion. The repetition of 'soy yo' in the chorus reinforces the message of personal confession and the desire to be recognized by their beloved. The song captures the essence of longing and the pain of loving someone from afar, making it a relatable and emotional ballad for those who have experienced unrequited love.
