Lyrics & Translation
I messed up this time, I've had my flaws too
I went to Medellin, we weren't doing good, mami, you went to Dallas, yeah
I lit up a joint and started to imagine your body
Tell me when are we gonna see each other
To touch each other like in those times
I remembered you and I felt like calling you, yeah
My bad, I don't know if you're with someone, yeah
You were my baby and I was your baller
No one has come along who knows how to fuck you like I do
I remembered you and I felt like calling you
My bad, I don't know if you're with someone
You were my baby and I was your baller
No one has come along who knows how to fuck you like I do
Woah woah, you been on my mind all day, all night
Where you been at all this time?
Got me missing you reminiscing
Smoking, I've been sipping
Now thinking 'bout your body, yeah, yeah, yeah
Don't give it to nobody, yeah, yeah, yeah
Don't you give my love away
Tell me that I'm not too late
I remembered you and I felt like calling you
My bad, I don't know if you're with someone
I remembered you and I felt like calling you
My bad, I don't know if you're with someone
You were my baby and I was your baller
No one has come along who knows how to fuck you like I do

Key Grammar Structures
-
ESTA VEZ ME HE EQUIVOCADO, YO TAMBIÉN HE TENIDO FALLAS
➔ Present Perfect (haber + past participle)
➔ The sentence uses the Present Perfect tense ('me he equivocado', 'he tenido') to express actions that have happened in the past but are still relevant to the present. It implies the speaker made mistakes that are affecting the current situation.
-
YO ME FUI PA' MEDELLÍN, NO ESTÁBAMOS BIEN, MAMI, TÚ TE FUISTE PA' DALLAS, YEAH
➔ Preterite (simple past) to describe completed actions, use of 'pa'' instead of 'para' (informal)
➔ The sentence uses the Preterite tense ('me fui', 'te fuiste') to describe finished actions in the past: going to Medellin and Dallas. 'Pa'' is an informal shortening of 'para', meaning 'to'.
-
MALA MÍA ES QUE NO SÉ SI ESTÁS CON ALGUIEN, YEAH
➔ Use of 'Mala mía' (my bad/my fault), Indirect question with 'si', Subjunctive mood (though not explicitly visible in this case, it's implied due to the uncertainty)
➔ 'Mala mía' expresses an apology or acknowledgement of fault. 'No sé si estás con alguien' is an indirect question. The implied subjunctive comes from the uncertainty expressed by 'no sé si'.
-
NO HA LLEGADO ALGUIEN QUE COMO YO SEPA CHINGARTE
➔ Present Perfect ('ha llegado'), Subjunctive mood (sepa) in a relative clause expressing doubt/uncertainty
➔ 'No ha llegado alguien' uses the Present Perfect. Because there is uncertainty (or a negative antecedent) in 'alguien', the subjunctive 'sepa' is used in the relative clause. If he knows for a FACT someone can he would use the indicative.
-
WHERE YOU BEEN AT ALL THIS TIME?
➔ Present Perfect Continuous (have/has been + -ing form) - Implies the action started in the past and continues to the present.
➔ This question implies that the person has been missing for an extended period leading up to the present. It’s equivalent to 'Where have you been all this time?' but uses colloquial language.
-
DON'T YOU GIVE MY LOVE AWAY
➔ Imperative with emphasis using 'do/don't'.
➔ The 'don't you' structure adds emphasis to the imperative, making it a stronger plea.
-
TELL ME THAT I'M NOT TOO LATE
➔ Indirect statement with 'that', Adjective 'late' used with 'too'.
➔ This sentence requests confirmation of a belief. 'Too late' means excessively late, implying concern.
