Mi Religión feels like opening a diary where every line is written with musical notes instead of ink. From the instant Natalia "sees" music’s eyes and hears its song, she falls head over heels. Music paints the sky with light and color, becomes her home, and offers mysterious joy and endless inspiration. Whenever she strays from it, she feels a bittersweet sting of regret, proof that her bond with music is spiritual and unbreakable.
By calling music her religion, Natalia elevates her passion to the level of faith. Religion provides guidance, comfort, and purpose; music does the same for her, so much so that one lifetime is too short to show all her love. She sings of salvation and sweet perdition because music can both rescue her and consume her. Ultimately, the song invites us to cherish whatever sparks our own devotion and let it color the universe around us.
