TERRAZA Lyrics in English by Wos
Carcasa literally translates to "carcass" or "shell". It's an intriguing word that evokes a sense of emptiness or being a mere shell of one's former self.
In the song, Wos sings, "Creo que hace tiempo vivo en una carcasa" (I think for a while now I've been living in a shell). This line suggests a feeling of detachment or emotional numbness, as if he's merely existing without true vitality. It's a powerful metaphor for feeling lost or disconnected from oneself.
Wos's "TERRAZA" feels like a stream-of-consciousness journey through a moment of intense introspection and a desire to break free from internal struggles. He starts by wanting to show his "dark side" and be a "tough guy" ("Quisiera sacar mi lado oscuro / Rapearte con mi parte de tipo duro"), but admits he can't today because he's healing and killing a "parasite on my scalp" ("Pero no puedo, hoy me curo / Mato al parásito en mi cuero cabelludo"). It's a really vivid image for getting rid of something bothering him!
The song is all about this internal battle with anxiety and confusion. He talks about making anxiety do a "judo move" ("si la ansiedad me toma le hago una toma de judo") and how he's lost, saying, "I found the key and forgot where my house is" ("Encontré la llave y me olvidé donde es mi casa"). There's a powerful sense of being disconnected from himself, living in a "carcass" ("Creo que hace tiempo vivo en una carcasa"). But despite all this, he finds comfort in simple things, like a hug ("Dame un abrazo y se me pasa"), and a rebellious spirit, declaring, "Let's burn the terrace" ("Vamos a quemar a la terraza"), which feels like a call to destroy old ways and start fresh. It's a really honest look at navigating chaos and finding your way back to yourself.
