SUPERPODER is María José Llergo’s rallying cry for anyone who has ever been told “you feel too much” or “you can’t.” Drawing on images from traditional bullfighting, she declares that she can be the bullfighter, the sword and the bull all at once: victim, fighter and victory in a single heartbeat. The lyrics trace her journey from a working-class neighborhood where unpaid bills and hospital visits clouded her family’s nights to international stages where her voice now soars. Gossiping neighbors, financial hardship and fragile health try to pin her down, yet every tear turns into a note of song, every obstacle into another spark of courage.
Her “superpower” is a mix of self-love, solidarity and art. By learning to cry while singing and sing while crying, she transforms pain into beauty, inviting listeners—especially those from overlooked barrios—into a collective uprising of hope. Money, status and inherited privilege lose their grip when voices unite; together, we can “change the ugliness of this bad world.” In short, the song is an anthem of resilience that reminds you: your background does not define your ceiling, and your feelings are not a weakness but a superpower waiting to shine.
