Restos vivos

The song 'Restos vivos' by Riddim delves into the themes of resilience, self-discovery, and the continuous struggle to stay true to oneself amidst life's challenges. The lyrics emphasize the importance of actively living and making conscious efforts to move forward, rather than passively allowing circumstances to dictate one's path. The opening lines, 'Si no vivis, si no haces nada por seguir, cualquiera puede hacerte sufrir,' highlight the necessity of taking action and being proactive to avoid suffering inflicted by external forces.

Throughout the song, the artist reflects on the need to remain vigilant and adaptable, as expressed in the lines 'Tengo que estar atento y andar, desandar, encontrar los caminos de mi vida.' This metaphor of walking and retracing steps symbolizes the ongoing process of finding one's way and making sense of life's journey. The recurring mention of the wind ('Sera que el viento empecinado no mira que tira') serves as a metaphor for the relentless and indifferent forces that one must contend with, reinforcing the idea that rebuilding and starting anew is an integral part of living.

The song also touches on the importance of authenticity and staying connected to one's true self. Lines like 'Tu voz sigue diciendo lo que sos, no me traiciones, jurar no es amor' suggest that remaining true to one's identity and values is crucial, even when faced with setbacks and injustices. The repeated assertion that 'Armar todo de nuevo es vivir, esconderse, no' underscores the message that facing challenges head-on and rebuilding from adversity is what truly constitutes living, rather than hiding or avoiding difficulties.
