"Cuando Sea Grande" is a tongue-in-cheek manifesto in which the singer fires off a long list of “I don’t want…” statements. Each verse is a playful yet brutally honest inventory of attitudes he refuses to inherit: resentment, nostalgia for “better times,” chronic anger, blame-shifting, and that tired sadness you can see in watery, red eyes. By repeating the line “Cuando sea grande no quiero ser como vos,” he draws a clear line between who he is now and the jaded adult he fears becoming, turning the song into a humorous self-help checklist set to an infectious beat.
Beneath the sarcasm lies a sincere hope: the desire to keep curiosity fresh, accept responsibility, and stay emotionally alive rather than calcify into a walking complaint. The final twist arrives when he wonders if anyone should even want to be like him, revealing that we’re all unfinished projects. The result is an energetic, relatable reminder that growing up isn’t about age—it’s about the mindset we choose every day.
