Outro
Bocafloja Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Saber cómo será cada detalle de los rasgos que acumule en esta cara anciana
Dos hijos, un perro, quizá junto a mi estrella, encaramados comunales en la punta de un cerro
Seguro vida eterna en el espíritu de algunos
Para otros la palabra inexpresable de los mudos
Si algo es seguro: no fiel escarabajo temeroso de brincarse el muro
Igual setenta y cinco, voy siempre evolutivo
Seré un viejo rabioso para ciegos, pero siempre progresivo
Si error he cometido, historia nueva y avanzar
Tatuajes sin color, pero con más significado
Haciendo frente al mundo desde un punto diferente al que quería verme situado
Desde un punto diferente al que quería verme situado
In the song Outro, Bocafloja reflects on the difficulty of imagining the future and predicting every detail that will show on his old face. He mentions two children, a dog, and a communal life with maybe his partner by his side, living at the top of a hill. He notes that for some, there is a sure eternal life in the spirit while others struggle to express themselves. He assures that he is not a scared beetle who cannot jump the wall, and though he will be 75 years old, he will always strive for progress. He will be a passionate old man for the blind, always evolving, and learning from his mistakes. Bocafloja has no tattoos on his skin, but those that are invisible have a symbolic and profound meaning. He faces the world from a different point of view than the one he thought he should occupy.
Bocafloja's Outro is a reflective piece that delves into the difficulties of imagining the future, accepting personal flaws, and striving for progress.

The artist's in-depth use of metaphors and wordplay illustrates his deep understanding of the complexities of human emotions and the different paths that we choose to follow in life.
