"La Prisión" ("The Prison") by Mexican rock icons Maná turns a toxic love story into a jailbreak anthem. Backed by driving guitars and Fher Olvera’s urgent vocals, the narrator compares a stifling relationship to cold prison walls and shouts, "No regreso a tu cárcel"—I’m not going back to your jail. Each repeated no chips away at the bars that fear and silence once built around his life.
Rather than dwelling on despair, the song celebrates self-liberation. The singer longs to "ahogarme en otros labios," to drown in other lips, and to bask under a new sun of freedom. Vowing to rescue himself, he transforms pain into power and invites listeners to break free from any situation that controls or diminishes them. The message is clear: love should feel like open skies, not prison walls.
