Cordero de Dios

Horcas' song 'Cordero de Dios' delves into the existential struggles and societal pressures faced by individuals in the modern world. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a person trapped in a world dominated by fear and industrialization, where existence feels cursed and life is a constant battle. The phrase 'Respirando en la industria del miedo' (Breathing in the industry of fear) suggests a society where fear is manufactured and pervasive, making daily life feel like a punishment.

The song's protagonist is aware of the fight they are engaged in, as indicated by the lines 'Sé por lo que estás peleando' (I know what you are fighting for). This awareness, however, does not alleviate the sense of being condemned, as they feel devoured by their existence and ultimately doomed to die. The recurring theme of condemnation and struggle highlights the oppressive nature of the societal structures in place, which seem to offer no escape.

The lyrics also touch on the societal reaction to resistance. The line 'Te ven demente si te resistís' (They see you as insane if you resist) underscores the stigma and marginalization faced by those who dare to challenge the status quo. The imagery of 'Violan tu mente contra la pared' (They violate your mind against the wall) is a powerful metaphor for the mental and emotional assault experienced by individuals who try to break free from societal norms. This song is a poignant commentary on the dehumanizing effects of modern society and the internal and external battles faced by those who resist conformity.
