Alma de acero
Pedro Infante Lyrics

In the song Alma de acero by Pedro Infante, he sings about a tough and resilient person who refuses to be brought down by love. He warns his lover that even though she may have multiple love interests and might try to replace him, she cannot replace the love she had with him. Although he cares for her deeply, he is not one to be emotional and instead maintains a strong exterior. He admits that sometimes he falls, but his pride and sense of self-respect quickly lifts him up again. He was born with an "alma de acero," or steel soul, which does not allow him to be weak and vulnerable in love.

The lyrics suggest a sense of detachment and aloofness toward love, which is not often portrayed in love songs. Infante's character seems to have a tough exterior, but is not completely closed off from love. He is not interested in creating emotional drama and refuses to be defeated by love. Despite the harshness of his words, there is still a sense of kindness and honesty in the way he presents himself. The lyrics also speak to the idea that some people are simply unable to fully open up emotionally, and that this does not necessarily mean they are incapable of love.
