[English]

Yeah-yeah

Yeah-yeah

Yeah-yeah

Without you, I'm not doing great, but I'm not doing bad either

No matter what happens, I'm not gonna call you

I'm over it, you're never gonna love me

To not think about you, I have to smoke

Without you, I'm not doing great, but I'm not doing bad either

No matter what happens, I'm not gonna call you

I'm over it, you're never gonna love me

To not think about you, I have to smoke

Tonight I'm gonna tear up the night, tonight I'm going out

Tonight I'm gonna light up and not pass it

I swear on my mom that I won't think about you

I won't make mistakes like you again (yeah)

Sometimes, the nights become torture

Like our love that became a delirium

My soul is at war, it's Syrian territory (ey)

Wine bottles end up as shards of glass (ey)

And your girl is so beautiful that I envy you (ey)

But whatever

You're gonna miss me when you open your wallet and have nothing

When he's hitting it and you don't feel anything

When you feel alone, lost in nowhere

You can fix it, but you don't do anything

Baby, thanks for nothing (ey)

Now there's plenty of pussy and money (ey)

Your friend liking, if I smash, I'll record it (ey)

I shit on your mother and your lawyer

Turn on the radio, I'll leave you a message

Without you, I'm not doing great, but I'm not doing bad either

No matter what happens, I'm not gonna call you

I'm over it, you're never gonna love me

To not think about you, I have to smoke

Without you, I'm not doing great, but I'm not doing bad either

No matter what happens, I'm not gonna call you

I'm over it, you're never gonna love me

To not think about you, I have to smoke, ah, ah

The best part is that now to go out

I don't have to wait for you to finish getting dressed

Tonight is a night of evil and I'm gonna have fun

I just smashed your friend

Like Miky says: "I'm not gonna lie to you" (I'm not gonna lie to you)

I was just one more for your collection

I don't know, between you and me, there's no connection anymore

To hell with forgiveness, there's no reconciliation

Now it's your turn to cry in your room

(Because not even for God will I take a call from you)

I never force anything, I let everything flow

(You're always throwing shade at me on social media)

They want my life but can't handle their own

Without you, I'm not doing great, but I'm not doing bad either

No matter what happens, I'm not gonna call you

I'm over it, you're never gonna love me

To not think about you, I have to smoke

Without you, I'm not doing great, but I'm not doing bad either

No matter what happens, I'm not gonna call you

I'm over it, you're never gonna love me

To not think about you, I have to smoke

...

Yeh-yeh

Yeh-yeh

Yeh-yeh

Sin ti no me va bien, tampoco me va mal

Pase lo que pase, no te voy a llamar

Ya yo me quité, tú nunca me va' a amar

Pa' no pensar en ti, tengo que fumar

Sin ti no me va bien, tampoco me va mal

Pase lo que pase, no te voy a llamar

Ya yo me quité, tú nunca me va' a amar

Pa' no pensar en ti, tengo que fumar

Hoy voy a romper la noche, hoy yo voy a janguear

Hoy voy a prender y no lo voy a pasar

Te juro por mami que en ti no vo'a pensar

Errores como tú no me vuelven a pasar (yeh)

A veces, las noches se vuelven martirio

Como nuestro amor que se volvió un delirio

Mi alma está en guerra, es terreno sirio (ey)

Las botellas de vinos terminan en vidrios (ey)

Y tu puta es tan bella que te envidio (ey)

Pero nada

Tú vas a extrañarme cuando abras la cartera y no tengas nada

Cuando él te lo meta y no sientas nada

Cuando te sientas sola, perdida en la nada

Tú puedes arreglarlo, pero no haces nada

Baby, gracias por nada (ey)

Ahora sobran los totos y los chavos (ey)

Tú amiga dando like, si le meto, la grabo (ey)

Me cago en tu madre y la de tu abogado

Prende la radio, te dejo un recado

Sin ti no me va bien, tampoco me va mal

Pase lo que pase, no te voy a llamar

Ya yo me quité, tú nunca me va' a amar

Pa' no pensar en ti tengo que fumar

Sin ti no me va bien, tampoco me va mal

Pase lo que pase, no te voy a llamar

Ya yo me quité, tú nunca me va' a amar

Pa' no pensar en ti tengo que fumar, ah, ah

Lo mejor de todo es que ahora pa' salir

No tengo que esperar que te termines de vestir

Hoy es noche 'e maldad y me vo' a divertir

A tu amiga la acabo e' partir

Como dice Miky: "no te vo' a mentir" (no te vo' a mentir)

Fui uno más pa' tu colección

No sé, entre tú y yo, ya no hay conexión

Pa'l carajo el perdón, no hay reconciliación

Ahora te toca llorar en tu habitación

(Porque ni por Dios cojo una llamada tuya)

Yo nunca forzo, dejo que todo fluya

(Te pasas en las redes tirándome puya)

Quieren mi vida y no pueden con la suya

Sin ti no me va bien, tampoco me va mal

Pase lo que pase, no te voy a llamar

Ya yo me quité, tú nunca me va' a amar

Pa' no pensar en ti, tengo que fumar

Sin ti no me va bien, tampoco me va mal

Pase lo que pase, no te voy a llamar

Ya yo me quité, tú nunca me va' a amar

Pa' no pensar en ti, tengo que fumar
