Yo no soy cool
OBK Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Me paro a pensar y me echo a reír
La mediocridad que está por venir
Y lo venderán como que "es lo mas"… siempre igual

Todo está creado para vender
Toda esa mentira que muchos creen
Es lo que ellos llaman: libertad
Yo no soy cool
Nunca he sonado en ese club
No veraneo en malibú
Y me da igual el qué dirán

Yo no sé tú
Pero me cansa ese glamour
Sólo quiero sentir que tú
Respiras como yo

Te dirán qué ropa has de llevar
Incluso qué disco has de tirar
Y tú como siempre picarás… yo también

Yo tambien
Desde mi modesta opinión
Déjate llevar por el corazón
Solo él sabrá distinguir por ti

Yo no soy cool
Nunca he sonado en ese club
No veraneo en malibú
Y me da igual el qué dirán

Yo no sé tú
Pero me cansa ese glamour
Sólo quiero sentir que tú
Respiras como yo

Yo no soy cool
Nunca he sonado en ese club
No veraneo en malibú
Y me da igual el qué dirán

Yo no sé tú
Pero me cansa ese glamour




Sólo quiero sentir que tú
Respiras como yo

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Yo no soy cool by OBK are a reflection on modern society's obsession with glamour, consumerism, and conformity. The singer takes the perspective of someone who does not fit in with the popular crowd and who is not interested in conforming to societal norms. He mocks the mediocrity that is sold to people as the "next big thing" and the way that people are encouraged to follow predefined paths.


The singer criticizes the way everything seems to be created just to sell, including lies that many people believe in. The writer refers to the notion of liberty as a fallacy while drawing attention to the conformity that it stands for. The refrain's repetition - "Yo no soy cool" - conveys an attitude of self-assurance and dismissal of the mainstream.


The second verse ridicules the pressure put on people to conform to fashion and music trends, with people being told what clothes they should wear and what music they should listen to. The chorus and the refrain challenge this notion of 'coolness,' emphasizing the desire for an authentic connection with others based on individuality and humanity's shared experiences.


Overall, the message of Yo no soy cool is that people should be true to themselves and not be swayed by societal pressure to fit in or adopt certain beliefs. The song encourages listeners to find their path and use their heart to distinguish between what is authentic and what is superficial.
