Three Souls was part of a burgeoning Mexican rock movement that had ties to rock's African American roots, the U.S. counterculture, and the then-globalizing recording industry. As rock in Mexico was originally seen as "inauthentic" when sung in Spanish, Three Souls mostly sang covers of American rock and blues songs in English. However, at the Festival de Avándaro, often called "Mexico's Woodstock", they crossed over, singing first in English, then in Spanish. From then on they recorded primarily in Spanish, writing most of their own songs. When asked why they switched to Spanish, Lora replied that it was important for the audience to understand the messages of the songs. While Three Souls had a popular following among the younger generation while singing in English, changing attitudes toward rock pushed the band to perform in the "hoyos fonquis", where the lower classes held semi-chaotic rock shows. Singing in his original language and for a new, energetic, young, and discontented audience, Lora's songs began reflecting more of the reality of the daily lives of average Mexicans, while simultaneously allowing concertgoers to forget those same troubles. Lora gave his own identity to Mexican rock & roll, becoming its emblem.
He Pensado Mucho

Acerca de lo que dicen de mi.
Tambien he pensado mucho,
Que voy hacer aqui.
Y he pensado tanto tiempo
Que ya no se ni lo que pienso.
Ya he pensado mucho tiempo
Hablan de mi porque toco
En un grupo de Rock and Roll.
Y porque no me importa nada
Mas que estar en el reventon.
Lo que dicen de mi es cierto
Mas yo ya ni me lamento
Quiero pasarme esta vida
Tocando Rock and Roll.
La ra ra ra ra ra ra la ra ra la ra ra la ra la ra ra la ra ra ra ra ra ra
Lo que dicen de mi es cierto
Mas yo ya ni me lamento
Quiero pasarme esta vida
Tocando Rock and Roll.

The lyrics of "He Pensado Mucho" by Three Souls in My Mind reflect the thoughts and mindset of a musician who is being judged and talked about because of his lifestyle and music preference.

The lyrics convey a sense of rebelliousness and a desire to live life on his own terms.
The artist acknowledges that what people say about him is true but he doesn't regret his decisions. He just wants to spend his life playing rock and roll music, which gives him his passion and freedom. The chorus repeats the phrase "Lo que dicen de mi es cierto mas yo ya ni me lamento" (What they say about me is true but I don't regret it anymore), emphasizing the artist's acceptance of his lifestyle and his goal of enjoying every second of his life by making music.
Overall, "He Pensado Mucho" by Three Souls in My Mind is an anthem for those who want to live their lives unapologetically and follow their passion despite being judged by society.

Ese era el Alex Lora Hoy solo queda un papista recalcitrante, hoy es solo esa parte del pasado rocanrolero de este país, la neta que lastima. Yo crecí con estas rolas mis tíos las escuchaban y hoy que escucho sus canciones nuevamente ya se perdió su mística, humildad, creatividad e irreverencia que era los mas importante. Ojala que disfrute su nueva vida de famoso y elite de este país.
