Los Dynamite Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

No me voy a esperar a ver si voy a crecer,
Un centímetro mas por que me da pánico ser el que tomo desiciones sin saber que voy a hacer..

Y yo voy a ser el que no entendió

Que todo esta bien sin voltear y sin dar unos pasos atrás
Soy el idiota que ayer pensaba que la libertad te mas

Y yo voy a ser e que no entendió

Y si mi cabeza dice bang bang
Y el mundo se me tira
Y si mi cabeza dice bang bang
Y el mundo se me tira
Y si mi cabeza dice bang bang
Y el mundo se me tira

No me voy a esperar a ver si voy a crecer,
Un centímetro mas por que me da pánico ser el que tomo desiciones sin saber que voy a hacer..

Y yo voy a ser el que no entendió

Y si mi cabeza dice bang bang
Y el mundo se me tira
Y si mi cabeza dice bang bang
Y el mundo se me tira

Y si mi cabeza dice bang bang
Y el mundo se me tira

Overall Meaning

The first verse of the song talks about not wanting to wait to see if the person will grow and change. They don't want to gain an inch in height because they fear becoming someone who makes decisions without knowing what they're going to do. They are acknowledging that they will be the one who didn't understand.

The chorus repeats the phrase "Y si mi cabeza dice bang bang, y el mundo se me tira," which can be interpreted as the person feeling overwhelmed by their own thoughts and the pressure of the world around them. The phrase "bang bang" implies a sort of explosion or conflict happening within their head, causing them to feel like the world is crashing down on them.

The second verse follows a similar theme to the first, stating that they don't want to wait to see if they'll grow and they don't want to take decisions without knowing what they're doing. They reiterate that they will be the one who didn't understand.

The repetitive chorus once again emphasizes the feeling of being overwhelmed, as the person's head saying "bang bang" is accompanied by the world throwing itself at them. This could represent the challenges and difficulties they face in life.

Overall, the lyrics of "Crayons" convey a sense of anxiety and confusion in the face of growing up and making decisions. The fear of not knowing what to do and feeling overwhelmed by the world's expectations is a central theme in the song. The repetition of the chorus emphasizes these feelings, providing a raw and introspective insight into the emotions the songwriter is experiencing.
