Lyrics & Translation

DILLOM’s “BICICLETA” is a powerful track in Spanish that plunges you into a feeling of searching and isolation. By engaging with the raw, yet melodic, Spanish lyrics of this Latin trap song, you can explore themes of existential loneliness and yearning in a contemporary urban setting.

[English]

So they don't take it out

from the same

but it's just like seeing it with the

timeline

Sometimes I feel so

out of place

and my body

ah

when I look in the mirror

the city

a place

I'm alone in this city

looking at the sun

I called a couple of times and no answer and

no answer

I owe it to all sides, no stopping turns of

a cyclist

It seems there are no answers

answer

According to the controller who doesn't appear

or not

[Music]

[Music]

[Applause]

I would like

it's what I feel least, I feel I have

a payment

I wish you were at my house under the

salt

who is alone in this city

I find you nowhere

and I'm alone in this city

certainly alone

alone

a

protests that no one answers

to control

I've already stopped

and there are no answers

answer

with two sides

e

yes

by shift

[Music]

no

[Music]

[Spanish]

así que no sacan

del mismo

pero que es al igual que ver con la

línea del tiempo

hay veces que me siento tan

afuera

y mi cuerpo

ah

cuando miro al espejo

la ciudad

un lugar

estoy solo en esta ciudad

mirar el sol

llame a un par de veces y no contestar y

no contesta

debo con todos lados no parar vueltas de

ciclista

parece que no hay respuestas

según controlador que no aparece

[Música]

[Música]

[Aplausos]

me gustaría

es lo que menos baja siento que tengo

una paga

quisiera que estés en mi casa a bajo la

sal

quien está solo en esta ciudad

te encuentro ningún lugar

y estoy solo esta ciudad

cierto el solo

solo

y no hay respuestas
