La sed y el hambre
Reytoro Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Descubrió un mundo desde el mal profundo
Derramo el fuego, conquisto el miedo
Y mordió la carne y en la cruz la sangre
Es la sed, es la sed, es la sed
Es la sed y el hambre
Y vendió su alma para no ceder ante la mirada de su propia fe
Y parió el fruto de su mismo vientre
Para conseguir mucho mas poder
Eso
Es la sed, es la sed, es la sed,
Es la sed y el hambre
Y lo vio nacer y lo vio crecer y después lo mato
Y lo vio crecer y después lo mato con rabia esclavizándolo
Y con la bandera del amor lo odio
Y sacio el hambre y mitigo la sed
Solo por llegar a ser de nuevo el rey eso
Es la sed, es la sed, es la sed
Es la sed del hombre
The lyrics to Reytoro's song La Sed y el Hambre tell a story of human temptation and the dark depths we can reach in order to achieve our desires. The first verse describes a person who has returned to their past and discovered a world from deep within themselves. They have overcome their fear, shed their inhibitions and indulged in their desires, even going so far as to engage in violence ("mordió la carne y en la cruz la sangre"). This is followed by the repeated refrain "Es la sed y el hambre" ("It is the thirst and hunger"), representing the insatiable desire for more.
The second verse describes someone who has been consumed by jealousy and anger to the point where they sell their soul in order to maintain their own beliefs. They even go as far as producing offspring to increase their power, which highlights their obsession with domination. The refrain is repeated once again, and the final verse speaks of watching something grow and then destroying it out of anger and frustration. This is again tied in with the refrain, showing that it is the thirst and hunger for power that drives these destructive behaviours.
Overall, the song highlights the negative aspects of human nature, and how our desires can lead us to dark places. The repetition of the refrain serves as a reminder that these desires can never truly be quenched, and we will always be left wanting more.
