Camino de fuego
Eskorzo Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Si vienes conmigo yo no te prometo ná
Si vienes conmigo ni la luna ni los soles
Si vienes conmigo solo duda pa mojar
Si vienes conmigo el corazón que tu te comes

Si vienes conmigo en las noches más oscuras
Si vienes conmigo hasta el amanecer del tiempo
Si vienes conmigo en las duras y en las maduras

Si vienes conmigo por el camino de fuego

Por el camino de fuegosacaré el miedo de tus huesos
Y así sabrán mucho mejor los besos
Si andas conmigo mi vida que apenas seguirá podrida
Por todos mis defectos
Viviremos con lo puesto
Corazoncitos de acero

Por el camino de fuegoy así nadie podrá detenernos si vienes conmigo por el camino de fuego

Overall Meaning

In Eskorzo's song "Camino de Fuego," the singer is inviting someone to take a journey with him, but he is not promising anything. The opening line, "Si vienes conmigo yo no te prometo ná" (If you come with me, I'm not promising you anything), sets the tone for the rest of the song. The singer is upfront about the fact that there may not be any rewards or benefits to taking this journey with him, but he still extends the invitation.

The rest of the lyrics in the chorus serve to reinforce the idea that this journey will not be easy. "Si vienes conmigo ni la luna ni los soles" (If you come with me, neither the moon nor the suns) highlights the fact that the journey will take place in the dark of night. "Si vienes conmigo solo duda pa mojar" (If you come with me, only doubt to wet) suggests that there will be challenges and uncertainties along the way. Despite this, the singer still encourages the listener to take the journey with him.

The second half of the chorus shifts focus to the rewards that might be found on this difficult journey. "Por el camino de fuego / sacaré el miedo de tus huesos / Y así sabrán mucho mejor los besos" (By the path of fire / I will remove the fear from your bones / And so the kisses will taste much better). The fire that the singer refers to could represent passion, and this line suggests that by facing their fears, the listener will be able to live a more fulfilling life. The final line of the chorus, "Si vienes conmigo por el camino de fuego," encourages the listener to take the journey with the singer, despite the challenges that may lie ahead.

Overall, "Camino de Fuego" is a song about taking risks and facing challenges, with the promise of greater rewards and a more fulfilled life on the other side.
