Contacto De Dios Lyrics in English Chris Lebron
Disimulando comes from the verb disimular, meaning to pretend, hide, or conceal. It implies putting on an act or trying to make something appear different from what it is.
In the song, the artist reflects on the struggles of adulthood, lamenting, "Que ahora si me cancelen en el trabajo, Siempre andar disimulando." Here, disimulando captures the constant need to hide one's true feelings or struggles, perhaps to maintain a facade of composure or success, making it a relatable and poignant word in the context of the song's theme of adult responsibilities.
“Contacto De Dios” finds Dominican artist Chris Lebron gazing up at the sky and jokingly asking God for a time-machine. Adult life has hit him with rent, job insecurity and the constant need to “play it cool,” so he wishes he could send a message to his younger self: “When I asked to grow up, I was only kidding!” Through playful regret, he realizes that childhood – filled with friends, a full plate, a safe roof and a loving mom – was nothing short of paradise.
As the song unfolds, Lebron contrasts flashy adult trophies (the newest car, jewelry, designer clothes) with the priceless freedom of having no commitments. He admits that if he had known what awaited him, he would have listened to his mother’s advice and held on tighter to innocence. With smooth vocals and a reflective beat, the track becomes an honest confession and a gentle reminder to cherish the simple gifts we often overlook until they are gone.
