Maná Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ya me harté de estar aburrido
No tengo más tiempo que perder
Me voy a largar en busca de un sueño
De nuevo a empezar, un nuevo día vendrá
Prr, so (so, so, so)
Pero lo tengo que cruzar
Si tropiezo y me caigo en el intento
Me paro otra vez, no hay nada que perder
No hay nada que perder, tienen que entender
Que uno tiene que luchar
No hay nada que temer, en mí tengo que creer
Y nadie me va a parar
La vida no son rosas
Y a veces te puedes espinar
Cuando sienta que tengo el mundo en mi contra
Lucharé hasta el final, nadie me va a parar
No hay nada que perder, tienen que entender
Que uno tiene que luchar
No hay nada que temer, en mí tengo que creer
Y nadie me va a parar
Yo tengo que vivir, el tiempo es corto
Tengo valor y no temor, porque, yo creo en algo
Yo tengo que soñar
Así nadie me va a parar, así puedo volar
No dudaré
Yo sé quien yo soy y hacia donde yo voy
Oh, no dudaré
Si yo sigo a mi corazón, todo es posible
No hay nada que perder, tienen que entender
Que uno tiene que luchar
No hay nada que temer, en mí tengo que creer
Y nadie me va a parar
No hay nada que perder
No hay nada que temer
No hay nada que perder
Nada, nada que temer (no no no)
No hay nada que perder (luchare por siempre)
No hay nada que temer (sin temor)
No hay nada que perder (hare lo imposible)
Nada, nada que temer
No hay nada que perder (luchare por siempre)
No hay nada que temer
No hay nada que perder (hare lo imposible)
Nada, nada que temer
The lyrics of Maná's song Nada que perder are about overcoming fears and taking risks in pursuit of one's dreams. The song starts with the singer expressing his frustration with feeling bored and having no more time to waste. He decides to leave and search for a dream, to start over again and hope for a better day. He recognizes that he doesn't know what lies ahead but he must cross that path no matter the obstacles. If he falls in the process, he will get up again and keep going because there's nothing to lose.
The chorus summarizes the life lesson of the song; one has to fight and believe in themselves, without fear, and with determination to make their dreams a reality. The lyrics encourage the listener to persevere, even if life presents its challenges like getting caught in the thorns of a rose. The message is that no matter the difficulties, they should fight until the end, and nothing will stop them.
