Let me go
Boom Boom Kid Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
fumar y hablar,
mirar y encontrar,
transpirar y bailar
dejame ir
nosotros no tenemos ninguma razon para dejar de hacerlo
beber y conducir,
fumar y hablar,
razarce y bailar.
The lyrics to Boom Boom Kid's song "Let Me Go" express a desire for freedom and self-expression through various forms of illegal or unhealthy activities. The singer lists actions like drinking and driving, smoking and talking, and sweating and dancing - all things that may be dangerous or frowned upon by society, but that he wants to do anyway. He asks to be allowed to go and do these things because there is no reason for him to stop. The repetition of the actions suggests a sense of urgency and compulsion, as if the singer needs to engage in these activities in order to feel alive.
One way to interpret these lyrics is as a commentary on the restrictions placed on individuals by society and the pressure to conform to certain standards of behavior. By listing these taboo activities, the singer is asserting his right to make his own choices and take risks. However, the lyrics could also be read as a celebration of hedonism and recklessness, without regard for the consequences. The ambiguous tone of the song leaves room for both interpretations.
Overall, "Let Me Go" is a provocative and catchy song that encourages listeners to contemplate their own relationship to risk-taking and freedom.
