El barco y el faro (English Translation) Lyrics
[Part I]
[Intro: ARA]
Mmm-mmm
[Verse: ARA]
How many souls remain silent within their condemnation, carry their hearts in pain, have their last hope?
Fate doesn’t wait, don’t ask “please”
Because I, as much as I love you, have no other way
But with this bandoneon, my voice, and another song
Perhaps to heal you, to heal, to heal myself
How many souls can I save?
[Part II]
[Verse: Oney1]
No, no, no, no, I don’t believe them at all (Plo)
That showcase of all the bought drinks is so pretty (Haha)
Without a dog on the table, the food is cooked
And now that they’re dropping the money, you tell me who’s stopping me
The rich guys swallow the saber, the fisu steal the cable (They steal the cable)
Do you want me to throw a fact? I made rap profitable (Ah; haha)
Don’t take it personally, these are lines that just come out (Hey, hey)
I respect everyone, even if it’s the same
Don’t tell anyone, it’s not a lie
I haven’t been restrained since I was 20 (Plo)
Even the haters’ comments are useful to me (Plo)
I’m joining the crowd (Ah)
I’m crazy, a complete lunatic (Plo)
And I have two brain cells (Plo)
I’m the future, and the present too (Plo-plo-plo-plo-plo-plo-plo)
I’ve already mastered rap, let the next one come in, I’m going all out
Relax, I wake up focused, I’m calm
Could my album rescue some soul? (Hey)
Brave guys on the bus, cowards with guns (Plo, plo, plo, plo)
I get on and the applause rains down, they even applaud me with their butts, uh
I’m a witness to the neighborhood like anyone else, buddy
I always followed what I wanted, I knew how to overcome the “buts” (Hey)
I’m a rapper and my hair stands on end, what I say is true (Yeah, yeah)
Either I had to die a piper, or I had to die a rapper
[Chorus: Oney1]
How many souls can I save? (How many souls?)
Who’s getting on board? (Oh)
Family, respect, the only deal (Plo)
C.A.P.S. is the pact, it’s the first act
Who’s getting on board?
How many souls can I save?
Who’s getting on board?
Family, respect, the only deal
C.A.P.S. It’s the pact, it’s the first act (Who’s getting on board?)
[Outro]
(It’s the first act; who’s getting on board?)
El barco y el faro Lyrics Meaning
[Parte I: Intro: ARA]
ARA’s brief but expressive hum sets a haunting and melancholic tone for the song, preparing the listener for the emotional depth that follows. This non-verbal introduction conveys an atmosphere of contemplation, as if mourning or meditating on unseen pain, drawing listeners into a reflective space before the lyrics begin.
[Parte I: Verso: ARA]
ARA opens the narrative with a poetic lament, speaking of souls trapped in silence and suffering, burdened by grief yet clinging to their last hope. The verse paints a picture of despair met with empathy, as she speaks of healing through music—her voice, her instrument, and her song. There’s a vulnerability in her admission that even with love, there’s often no clear path to salvation. Her closing lines suggest a shared struggle and a longing to redeem not just others, but also herself.
[Parte II: Verso: Oney1]
Oney1 enters with defiance and self-assurance, rejecting inauthenticity and confronting the superficiality he sees around him. Through sharp wit and street-smart observations, he critiques materialism, class hypocrisy, and the performative nature of some within the rap scene. Despite the bravado, there’s sincerity in his reflections: he frames rap as both a career and a survival mechanism. The verse is deeply autobiographical—speaking of overcoming addiction, navigating skepticism, and transforming hardship into lyrical power. His candid tone and rhythmic precision reinforce his message of self-made success and earned respect.
[Parte II: Estribillo: Oney1]
The chorus brings the song’s metaphor to life: the boat as a symbol of rescue, community, and shared purpose. Oney1 questions how many souls he can help save, subtly tying back to ARA’s earlier themes. “¿Quién se sube al barco?” becomes both an invitation and a challenge—asking who is ready to commit to authenticity, respect, and loyalty. The repeated mention of “C.A.P.S.” suggests a deeper collective or movement, perhaps a personal philosophy or community value system that he aligns with, positioning it as a foundational principle.
[Parte II: Outro]
The outro softly reiterates the central question—who will get on the boat—emphasizing the opening of a journey rather than its end. It closes the song with quiet insistence, suggesting that the first act has only begun and that there is more to come, both musically and in the message Oney1 wishes to carry forward.
