Hacer Algo
Doble Pletina Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Años de pasar las tardes dormitando en el sofá.
Pensando en esto me he propuesto
Redactar la novela que podría revolucionar
El panorama literario actual
Para que al menos me recuerdes
Todas las excusas que utilizas para escapar.
Pensando en esto me he propuesto
Componer la opera rock generacional
Que arrastrará a las multitudes
Para que al menos me recuerdes.
Todos los secretos que insistes en no revelar
Merecerá la pena cuando ya no los puedas contar.
Pensando en esto me he propuesto
Dirigir la trilogía que acaparará
El palmarés de festivales
Internacionales
Para que al menos me recuerdes.
Pensando en esto me he propuesto
Aplazar todas las genialidades por empezar
Ir al teléfono y llamarte
¿Qué planes hay para esta tarde?
Fin.
The lyrics of Doble Pletina's song Hacer Algo, which translates to "Do Something" in English, depict the frustration and regret of not pursuing one's ambitions and dreams. The first two lines emphasize the unused notebooks, symbolizing the unexplored potential and unfulfilled aspirations. The following verse talks about how the singer's main motivation for achieving something great is to be remembered by someone they care about, and they believe that the only way to do that is to make something that would leave a lasting impression.
The chorus talks about the things that people deny themselves due to self-censorship or excuses, suggesting that they are aware of their limitations but still refuse to overcome them. The singer decides to take initiative by embarking on an ambitious artistic endeavor - writing a novel, composing an opera-rock, and directing a trilogy of films. Their pursuit of these goals is fueled by the desire to be remembered by someone, suggesting that the need for validation and recognition is a powerful motivator for creative expression.
In conclusion, Hacer Algo is a song about self-realization and the importance of pursuing one's passions and dreams. It highlights the regret that comes with not taking action and challenges people to do something with their lives before it's too late.
