Hipócritas translates to "hypocrites." It's a strong and direct word that immediately grabs attention, as it's not a term commonly featured in everyday song lyrics.
In "Hipocrecia," Adalberto Santiago uses this word to directly address those who suffer from the "horrible enfermedad" (horrible illness) of hypocrisy. He criticizes their deceitful nature and the negative impact it has on life, making it a central theme of the song and a powerful word choice.
Adalberto Santiago and Johnny Cruz team up for "Hipocrecia," a salsa track that's all about calling out fake people. The song starts by talking about how many people find love and connection in life, valuing those who truly care for them. But then it quickly shifts to those who suffer from a "horrible enfermedad" [horrible illness]: hypocrisy.
Adalberto doesn't hold back, declaring that this illness has no cure and makes life hard with so much anxiety. He sings, "no me interesa no me escucha aquí me encantó me pone fin a tu maldad" [I'm not interested, don't listen to me here, I loved it, it puts an end to your evil]. He's singing to put an end to this negativity, especially for those who are constantly criticizing others and wasting their own time. He even warns that those who look at you with a serene gaze might be the ones to stab you in the back. But he's got a message for the haters: "no tienes nada que es enviarme no dejarte de criticarme" [you have nothing to envy me for, stop criticizing me]. Ultimately, he reminds us that "todo tiene su final" [everything has its end], suggesting that even hypocrisy will eventually face its consequences.
