La Historia

El Taiger's song 'La Historia' delves into the aftermath of a breakup, where the narrator confronts the ex-partner's skewed narrative of their relationship's end. The lyrics express the frustration of having one's story misrepresented and the desire to set the record straight. The song's chorus emphasizes that contrary to the ex-partner's claims, it was the narrator who ended the relationship, flipping the script on the tale being told.

The song also touches on the theme of emotional manipulation, as the ex-partner attempts to play with the narrator's feelings, which are described as being 'bajo cero' or below zero, indicating a state of emotional numbness or detachment. The narrator is aware of the ex's efforts to make them jealous or hurt by being with someone else, but they express a clear disinterest in engaging with these games. The mention of crying 'un aguacero,' a downpour, contrasts with the ex's 'llorando un mal,' crying over a misfortune, suggesting a deeper and more overwhelming emotional response from the narrator.

El Taiger also criticizes the ex-partner for speaking ill of a new woman without knowing her, highlighting a lack of respect and understanding. The song's narrative is a call for authenticity and truth in the face of deceit and manipulation. It's a reminder that there are always two sides to every story, and the truth often lies somewhere in between the narratives that each person chooses to tell.
