Tierra Prometida
Hotel Mama Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Mientras yo cumplo mi pagamento
Hago maletas pa´l viaje
No tengo mucho equipaje
A donde voy tengo todo
Esta, esta ciudad es mi prueba
De ella tengo algunas quejas
Aquí no muero de vieja
Con la tierra prometida
Yo me sueño todo el día
Yo no sé cuándo ni como
La convicción es mi guía
Con la tierra prometida
Yo me sueño todo el día
Yo no sé cuándo ni como
La convicción es mi guía

Mientras yo cumplo mi pagamento
Hago maletas pa´l viaje
No tengo mucho equipaje
A donde voy tengo todo

Con la tierra prometida
Yo me sueño todo el día
Yo no sé cuándo ni como
La convicción es mi guía
Con la tierra prometida
Yo me sueño todo el día




Yo no sé cuándo ni como
La convicción es mi guía

Overall Meaning

Hotel Mama's song Tierra Prometida is a reflection of a person who is on a journey of self-discovery and is prepared to leave everything behind in search of their dreams. The lyrics convey a sense of wanderlust, where the singer is ready to travel light, leaving behind a city where she has some complaints. She isn't afraid of growing old in her current environment but seeks something more significant in life.


The lines "Con la tierra prometida, yo me sueño todo el día" (With the promised land, I dream all day) and "La convicción es mi guía" (Conviction is my guide) highlight the importance of the destination in the singer's mind. She believes in the power of the journey, and her conviction is what keeps her motivated. The song's use of the "tierra prometida" (promised land) metaphor is significant. The phrase has religious significance in the Bible and symbolizes a place beyond our current reality, a paradise, a place of eternal peace, and prosperity.


The song may also reflect existing social issues. The idea of leaving everything behind may indicate a social imbalance in the city, where the singer feels they can't achieve their dreams. By going to the promised land, the singer hopes to find a place of prosperity where they can thrive. The song's overall message is about the singer's strong belief in finding their promised land, and the conviction to pursue it.
