Fijate Bien Lyrics in English Juanes

Imagine having to look down at the ground every few seconds, afraid that the next step could change your life forever. In “Fíjate Bien” Juanes paints that tense reality with urgent guitars and passionate vocals, describing people who have been pushed off their land, stripped of their homes, and forced to wander a city that barely notices them. The verses mention children, elders, and mothers to show that everyone is affected by violence and displacement.

The catchy chorus — “Fíjate bien donde pisas” (“Watch carefully where you step”) — is both a literal warning about hidden land mines and a metaphor for staying alert in a world full of unseen dangers. By repeating the plea, Juanes reminds listeners that governments or authorities may not come to the rescue, so communities must protect one another. The song turns a heavy social message into an energetic anthem, making you tap your foot while thinking hard about the price of conflict.
