Something Bad de Robin Thicke

La canción "Something Bad" interpretada por Robin Thicke y perteneciente a su álbum "Paula", nos sumerge en un viaje introspectivo sobre los demonios internos del cantante. La letra revela una lucha interna constante con sus propias debilidades y la presión que siente al enfrentarse a sus propios problemas.

Desde el inicio de la canción, Thicke reconoce la presencia de algo oscuro dentro de él, algo que lo consume y lo controla. Expresa sentirse atrapado, como si estuviera bajo la amenaza constante de un peligro inminente. Utiliza metáforas poderosas para describir su estado emocional, comparándose con un rompecabezas incompleto que no vale la pena resolver.

El artista se ve inmerso en un ciclo de vanidad y autopromoción, donde se siente fragmentado y sin rumbo. A pesar de invitar a alguien a su lecho, advierte que su propia confusión mental podría afectar incluso esa relación. La dualidad entre el deseo y la autodestrucción se hace evidente en sus palabras, dejando entrever una espiral descendente en su vida personal.

Thicke menciona a una misteriosa figura femenina ("She's a princess and I'm from Kings and Queens") que parece representar tanto un ideal inalcanzable como una tentación irresistible. Describe secretos hermosos pero prohibidos, sugiriendo una sombría complicidad entre ambos. Su tono oscila entre la necesidad desesperada y el reconocimiento implícito de las consecuencias imprevisibles de sus acciones.

La canción explora temas de redención y arrepentimiento, donde Thicke parece debatirse entre entregarse a sus impulsos más oscuros o buscar una forma de escapar de ellos. La ambivalencia emocional presente en cada verso resalta la complejidad psicológica del cantante, mostrando un lado vulnerable y humano detrás de su imagen pública.

Desde el punto de vista musical, "Something Bad" combina elementos pop y rock para transmitir la intensidad emocional del mensaje. Los instrumentos utilizados contribuyen a crear una atmósfera envolvente que acompaña fielmente las letras llenas de angustia y conflicto interno.

En resumen, "Something Bad" es mucho más que una simple canción; es un testimonio íntimo sobre las batallas personales del artista consigo mismo. A través de sus letras reflexivas y emotivas, Robin Thicke nos invita a explorar las sombras dentro de nosotros mismos y confrontar nuestros propios demonios internos con valentía y honestidad.

There's something bad in me (something, something)
Oh, there's something bad in me (something, something)
Yeah, there's something bad, something bad, something real real bad (something, something)
There's something b-b-b-bad in me (bad, bad, bad, bad)
(There's something bad baby, bad baby, you're so bad)
(You're such a fad baby, fad baby, you're such a fad)
(There's something bad baby, bad baby, you've been such a bad baby)

The blood in my veins, something's got me by the reigns
Try to run but I've been staring down the barrel of a gun
Now I'm under pressure, feeling mighty dressed up
Look at me, I'm showing off again cause vanity's my only friend
I'm in pieces, of a puzzle
If you ever even finish baby, won't be worth the muscle
So take a leap of faith and baby land in my bed
But don't be surprised if I be messing up your head

There's something bad in me (something, something)
Oh, there's something bad in me (something, something)
Yeah, there's something bad, something bad, something real real bad (something, something)
There's something b-b-b-bad in me (bad, bad, bad, bad)
(There's something bad baby, bad baby, you've been such a bad baby)
(You're such a fad baby, fad baby, you've been such a fad)
(There's something bad baby, bad baby, you've been such a bad baby)

She's a princess and I'm from Kings and Queens
Pain clips on my fingers and ankles, I'm a fiend
Beautiful secrets that nobody's supposed to keep
Bird flew in the window took a picture left with a naughty tweet
I try to breathe deep, before I do bad things
It feels good right now, how long can this be?
I know you want to fly so baby open up your wings
Then you walk out with your legs shaking while you're screaming, "Robin, please"

There's something bad in me (something, something)
Oh, there's something bad in me (something, something)
Yeah, there's something bad, something bad, something real real bad (something, something)
There's something b-b-b-bad in me (bad, bad, bad, bad)
(There's something bad baby, bad baby, you've been such a bad baby)
(You're such a fad baby, fad baby, you've been such a fad)
(There's something bad baby, bad baby, you've been such a bad baby)

I'm in pieces, of a puzzle
If you ever put together, won't be worth the years of trouble
With you me you want to do things for the very first time
Tonight I'm all yours but in the morning I'm all mine

There's something bad in me (something, something)
Oh, there's something bad in me (something, something)
Yeah, there's something bad, something bad, something real real bad (something, something)
There's something b-b-b-bad in me (bad, bad, bad, bad)
(There's something bad baby, bad baby, you've been such a bad baby)
(You're such a fad baby, fad baby, you've been such a fad)
(There's something bad baby, bad baby, you've been such a bad baby)
