Complicado (feat. Ervin River y Jayrick)

Gera MX's song 'Complicado' delves into the internal conflicts and challenges faced by the artist, juxtaposing his public persona with his private struggles. The lyrics open with a contrast between outward appearances and inner turmoil, likening his pain to the burning sensation of Mezcal, a strong Mexican spirit. This metaphor sets the tone for the song, which explores themes of anxiety, ambition, and personal growth amidst adversity.

The song's narrative reveals the artist's battle with anxiety, particularly before performing, and his conversations with God, seeking solace rather than help. Gera MX reflects on his journey, acknowledging the sacrifices made for his career, such as leaving his old neighborhood and the comforts of home. The lyrics suggest a sense of loss but also a determination to persevere, as he has built his future with his own words and continues to chase his dreams despite the costs. The recurring theme of complexity in life and relationships is encapsulated in the chorus, where he describes the difficulty of shaking off the devil on his shoulder and the transient nature of time as his advocate.

The song also touches on personal relationships and the impact of his career choices on them. Gera MX discusses a potential love interest and the reasons why a relationship is not feasible, including differences in lifestyle and priorities. He expresses regret over past relationships, particularly one where his 'demons' were not accepted. The artist uses these experiences to highlight his growth and the realization that some paths are meant to be walked alone. 'Complicado' is a candid reflection on the complexities of life as an artist, the pursuit of dreams, and the resilience required to move forward despite the challenges.
