Cambios
Attaque 77 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
demasiados prejuicios
demasiada bandera y discursos
tanto tiempo perdido.
Nada es inalterable
nada es definitivo
ya ves solo el cambio
es lo único que permanece en el tiempo, incondicional
Tanta postura y preocupación
tantas ideologías,
compromisos, palabras y luchas
todo menos sonrisas.
Nada es inalterable...
Mil cosas que dije ayer
hoy me hace reír
y mañana me burlaré de lo que hoy pueda decir
entonces porque insistir
The lyrics of Attaque 77's song Cambios (Changes) talk about the need for change in society and in oneself. The singer begins by saying that he left behind a life that was too uniform, full of prejudices, flags, and speeches. He realizes that nothing is unchanging or definitive and that the only thing that remains is change, which is unconditional over time. The lyrics suggest that society is full of posturing, concerns, ideologies, commitments, words, and struggles that lack smiles or happiness.
The message of the song is that everything changes, including our beliefs and opinions. The singer acknowledges that the things he said yesterday now make him laugh and that he will probably make fun of what he says today in the future. Therefore, he sees no point in insisting on holding onto beliefs that are transient. The lyrics ultimately call for people to embrace change, let go of one-sided ideas, and break free from societal conventions.
