Oveja negra literally translates to "black sheep." It's an idiomatic expression that refers to someone who is different from the rest of their family or group, often in a way that is considered unconventional or rebellious.
In the song, the artist uses this phrase to describe himself as someone who didn't conform to expectations and chose a different path to achieve his dreams, highlighting his unique journey and determination.
Diferente Nivel's song "Fácil" is a really direct and honest response to people who think his success came easily. He laughs at the idea, saying, "Me pongo a reír si supieran más de mí / Lo que me tocó vivir, ya no pensarían así" [I start to laugh if they knew more about me / What I had to live through, they wouldn't think that anymore]. He calls himself the "oveja negra" [black sheep], someone who wasn't content and always wanted more, working hard while others slept. He even worried his mom by staying out late chasing his dreams.
He doesn't shy away from admitting he took risks, always with faith that things would turn out well, and they did. He says he had to overcome "cuántas piedras, cuántas trabas" [how many stones, how many obstacles] but kept looking forward. And for those who say he's changed now that he's successful, he's quick to correct them: "no fui yo el que cambió / Sigo siendo el mismo que un poquito más cabrón" [it wasn't me who changed / I'm still the same, just a little more badass]. It's a great song about hard work, perseverance, and staying true to yourself despite what others might say.
