Bulerías
Rosalía Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yo no tuve que hacer
Na'ita que yo no quisiera
Y aunque ahora nadie lo ve

Yo no tuve que hacer
Nada que me arrepienta ni de que yo lamente ahora
Para mantenerme en pie hoy
Yo me maté 24/7
Eso es lo que tuve que hacer

Soy igual de cantaora
Igual de cantaora con un chándal de Versace
Que vestidita de bailaora
Con un chándal de Versace
Que vestidita de bailaora

Y aunque a mí me maldigan
A mis espaldas
De cada puñala'ita
Saco mi rabia

Y aunque no tenga dinero
No tenga a nadie
Yo voy a seguir cantando
Porque me nace

Yo soy La Niña de Fuego, como canta Caracol
Como canta Caracol
Ay, esa que tú me hiciste
Y una sí, pero dos no
Y una sí, pero dos no

Yo soy muy mía
Que Dios bendiga a Pastori y Mercé
A la Lil' Kim, a Tego y a M.I.A.
A mi familia y a la libertad

Ay, quítate, quítate, quítate tú de en medio
Que tú sabes que yo te canto al siete por medio
Quítate, quítate, quítate tú de en medio
Que tú sabes que yo te canto al siete por medio
Ay, que tú sabes que yo te canto al siete por medio
Ay, que tú sabes que yo te canto al siete por medio

The bridge of the song is a declaration of independence and defiance. Rosalía sings that despite people talking behind her back and trying to bring her down, nothing can stop her from singing and expressing herself.
