Calles
El Otro Yo Lyrics

The lyrics of El Otro Yo's song Calles express a desire to do good to others in the hope of receiving good in return. The singer is struggling with internal turmoil and doesn't want to be alone. Despite the stigma attached to being alone, the singer clarifies that they don't feel alone when they're with someone they care about, hence the line "although nobody believes you're alone, you're just with you." The song is also a cry for social justice as the singer observes the plight of the homeless people they encounter on the streets. These people are shivering in the cold, with nothing but cardboard to keep them warm, and are being left to die.

The song highlights the importance of holding onto hope, even when it seems like there's no hope in sight. The singer encourages the listener to hold onto their beliefs, and not to give up on the possibility of positive change, even if it takes some effort. By urging a collective rebellion, the singer points out that together, people can create change and unlock justice. Ultimately, the song's message is one of solidarity, as the singer advocates for looking after both oneself and others in the pursuit of collective good.
