En Contra
Dulce María Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
En contra del sol y de las estrellas
En contra del tempo y logica
Contra el ritmo y métrica
En contra de todos los paradigmas
Despues de todo somos eternos
Los venceremos
Es mágico, abstracto
Un poco absurdo
Más, todo es ser los dos
Surreal, paranormal
No siempre justo
Así es nuestro amor
Así es nuestro amor
Así es nuestro amor
En contra de los sentidos
En contra de todos los algoritmos
En contra de toda la verdad
En contra de la falsedad
En contra del inicio y del final
Despues de todo somos eternos
Los venceremos
Es mágico, abstracto
Un poco absurdo
Más, todo es ser los dos
Surreal, paranormal
No siempre justo
Así es nuestro amor
Así es nuestro amor
Así es nuestro amor
En contra de la marea
The song "En Contra" by Dulce María speaks of a love that defies all norms and expectations. The lyrics describe the couple going "en contra" or against the tide, the sun, the stars, the tempo, the logic, the rhythm, the metrics, the paradigms, the senses, the algorithms, the truth and the falsehood. The love they share is magical, abstract, surreal and paranormal. It is not always fair or just, but it is unique and powerful. The repeated line "Después de todo somos eternos, los venceremos" translates to "After all, we are eternal. We will conquer."
The song seems to be talking about a couple who are willing to go the extra mile for their love, even if it means going against societal norms and expectations. The lyrics highlight the unconventional nature of their relationship and how, despite all odds, their love is strong and will survive. The repeated use of "en contra" emphasizes the rebelliousness of their love and how it defies all rules and regulations. The use of abstract and surreal imagery further reinforces this idea and adds to the dream-like atmosphere of the song.
