La Sacra Famiglia Lyrics in English by Brray
Pezuña' is a colloquial form of "pezuñas," meaning 'hooves'. It's an interesting and somewhat unexpected word to find in a song, especially in a metaphorical context.
In the lyrics, Brray says, "Cría águila' y te van a espetar todas las pezuña'" (Raise eagles and they will stick all their hooves into you). This vivid imagery suggests that even those you nurture and help grow can turn against you or cause you harm, using their 'hooves' (or claws, in the case of eagles) to hurt you. It's a unique way to express betrayal or ingratitude.
Brray's "La Sacra Famiglia" gives us a really honest look into the mind of an artist dealing with the pressures of success and personal struggles. He kicks things off by admitting he's constantly trying to escape his thoughts, saying, "No ha pasado ni media hora y estoy enrolando otro" [Not even half an hour has passed and I'm rolling another one] and needing to ignore thoughts "Pa' poder dormir" [To be able to sleep]. It's clear he's fighting an internal battle, even as he acknowledges things are "mejor que ayer" [better than yesterday].
He talks about people envying him even when he has little, wondering what it would be like "Imagínate con mucho" [Imagine with a lot]. Brray is very open about the sacrifices he makes, noting that everyone sees the money but not "los sacrificios" [the sacrifices]. He even says his only enemies are "yo mismo y los vicio'" [myself and my vices]. There's a real sense of loneliness, too, as he mentions how people don't ask about his well-being anymore, unlike the daily questions he used to get. He feels like he's always "cargando al mundo" [carrying the world] and asks, "¿Pero a mí quien me carga?" [But who carries me?]. It's a powerful and relatable feeling of being overwhelmed, even when achieving his dreams.
