B.I Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Y junto a lado mío apareciste tú
Me miraste a los ojos quedamos perplejos
Inmersos compartimos tanta plenitud
Quiero volar hacia tu cielo
Probar el dulce de las nubes
Que la luna sea mi recuerdo
Si un día quieres sentirme en tu piel
Probar el dulce de las nubes
Que la luna sea mi recuerdo
Si un día quieres sentirme en tu piel
Hoy por la mañana te mire a lo lejos
Con esa luz tan tuya, frente al espejo
Poco a poco yo, me acerque en silencio
Mis buenos días son al poder darte un beso
Tendí mi mano puse el alma y libere mis miedos
Y por eso pienso que estoy viviendo un sueño
El clima frío nena es de mi agrado entero
Y el calor de tu cuerpo es mi único deseo
Probemos algo nuevo
Yo quiero hablarte con la verdad
Es algo que siento que a mi me debo
Y lo elijo en mi libertad
Seamos fruta a medias después un cocktail
Con todo lo que somos y que fue
La vida sabe amarga a veces como el café
Y la clave del dulzor es decir quédate
Quiero volar hacia tu cielo
Probar el dulce de las nubes
Que la luna sea mi recuerdo
Si un día quieres sentirme en tu piel
Quiero volar hacia tu cielo
Probar el dulce de las nubes
Que la luna sea mi recuerdo
Si un día quieres sentirme en tu piel
Recorro el arcoíris y se que al final
No importa el oro si encuentro la paz
Pan miel y mantequilla para un día mal
Tome tu mano entonces no la voy a soltar
Ven demos un paseo por allí
Suelto mi cabello si sé que te gusta así
Seamos como niños y su magia al existir
Perdámonos el miedo y aprendamos a vivir
Tu sueltas tu cabello luces tan guapa y super
Yo con mi facha rapper es lo mejor que pude
Vayamos de paseo volemos por las nubes
Tengamos una charla y que un abrazo nos junte
Caminemos a casa y planeamos la cena
Pongamos una peli la veremos a medias
La noche nos cobija y veremos las estrellas
Y así hasta el otro día para aventuras nuevas
Hey, para aventuras nuevas
Hey, para aventuras nuevas
The song "Cielo" by B.I., an Italian word that translates to "sky," is an emotional piece that talks about the vulnerability of the human heart and the pain caused by words and actions. The lyrics are written in a mix of Italian and Neapolitan dialect, which highlights the artist's Italian roots. The song speaks of two people who are frightened to open up and show their true selves to the world for fear of getting hurt. Both individuals have experienced pain, and their experiences have shaped them into who they are today. They are like two leaves that shake in the wind, but they are also good at falling.
The artist acknowledges the power of words and how they can cause more harm than physical weapons. He uses the metaphor of a wound on the heart that is invisible to others but is painful for the person experiencing it. The song encourages people to face their fears and embrace their vulnerabilities. The artist wants to help the person he is speaking to heal by removing the thorn that is causing them pain and allowing them to feel joy again. The song ends on a hopeful note, with the two people looking up at the same sky, knowing that they are not alone in their struggles and that together, they can move beyond their pain.
