Resiste

Zoé's song 'Resiste' delves into the themes of resistance, existence, and the internal conflict of a libertine. The lyrics open with a powerful call to 'resist and exist,' suggesting a struggle against societal norms and expectations. The phrase 'no hay lista ni reservación' (there's no list or reservation) implies a rejection of conventional paths and predetermined roles. The protagonist is described as 'altivo el más vivo' (proud, the most alive), yet an 'enemigo de la reencarnación' (enemy of reincarnation), indicating a disdain for repetitive cycles and a desire for a unique, unbounded existence.

The recurring line 'Tú sabes que yo siempre quise amar, pero soy un libertino más' (You know I always wanted to love, but I'm just another libertine) highlights the protagonist's internal conflict. Despite a yearning for love and deeper connections, the libertine lifestyle—characterized by a pursuit of pleasure and freedom—prevents them from fully committing. This duality is central to the song, portraying the libertine as both a seeker of more profound experiences and a prisoner of their own desires.

The imagery of being 'cautivo del vacío' (captive of the void) and 'el amigo de la reina evasión' (the friend of the queen of evasion) further emphasizes the sense of emptiness and escapism that accompanies the libertine's journey. The elevator with no floor ('no hay piso en el elevador') symbolizes a lack of grounding or direction, reinforcing the theme of existential drift. Ultimately, 'Resiste' is a poignant exploration of the tension between the desire for freedom and the longing for meaningful connections, encapsulated in the repeated declaration, 'Soy un libertino más' (I'm just another libertine).
