Caigo y me levanto
cuatro pesos de propina Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

El universo trata de mostrarte
Que de lo inmenso formamos parte
Y hay una réplica de su estructura
En cada cuerpo brillando a oscuras

Pocos tocaron el sol con la manos
Y volvieron sanos a contar la experiencia
La misma esencia que viaja en el viento
Es la que llevan los seres vivos por dentro

A vos te faltan un par de jugadores
A mi me sobran un par de los peores
La cancha incompleta o sobre cargada
No es lo mismo pero igual es una cagada

Haber como andamos por casa
Voy a contarte lo que me pasa
A corazón abierto
Pa' salir de este desierto

No tengo miedo de contarte
Que tengo miedo de entregarme
Que hace poco domino la tristeza
Que se apodera de mi cabeza y quiere

Sacarme del camino, torcer mi destino
Que pierda el rumbo que ya está perdido
Dejarme en la soledad
Pa' llenarme de oscuridad y...

Caigo, me levanto
Salto al cielo y en pleno vuelo




Caigo, me levanto
Salto al cielo, planeo y en pleno vuelo

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to "Caigo y me levanto" by Cuatro Pesos de Propina convey a profound message about the interconnectedness of the universe and the resilience of the human spirit. The song suggests that the universe is trying to show us that we are part of something immense and that a replica of its structure exists within each individual, even if we may shine in darkness.


The lyrics draw a parallel between those who have dared to touch the sun and returned unharmed, and the essence that travels in the wind, which is carried within all living beings. This essence is what drives us, what keeps us going. It is a reminder that we are all connected, regardless of our individual experiences.


The song also reflects on the imbalances in life. The singer acknowledges that while they may lack a few key players, others may have an excess of those who are less desirable. Whether the field is incomplete or overcrowded, it is still a mess. This can be interpreted as a metaphor for the challenges we face in finding the right balance in life.


The lyrics then transition to a more personal and introspective tone. The singer opens their heart to reveal their fears and struggles. They admit to being afraid of fully surrendering themselves to others, as they have recently learned to control their sadness. However, this sadness still lingers in their mind, threatening to divert them from their path and plunge them into darkness.


Yet, despite these challenges, the chorus of "Caigo y me levanto" represents resilience and perseverance. The singer metaphorically falls, but they rise again, jumping into the sky and soaring in flight. This imagery suggests the ability to overcome obstacles and continue moving forward, learning and growing from each experience.


Overall, the lyrics of "Caigo y me levanto" highlight the interconnectedness of the universe, the struggles of finding balance, and the strength to overcome challenges and keep going.
