As a member of the choir at San Antonio de Paula Church, Acosta discovered amid the ritual and incense his love for song. In 1982, having sung for years only inside the walls of the church, Acosta learned of a singing competition sponsored by a local radio station. Sneaking off for the qualification rounds paid off, as he ultimately took first place. Once the doors were opened to public performance, the young talent flourished, and he participated in a number of local groups who played clubs and festivals in the surrounding area. In addition to singing, Héctor played a variety of instruments, acting as bass player for the popular Bonao band Los Gentiles. After a 1989 performance with the group, Acosta was introduced to Gerardo Diaz, whom he had impressed with his improvisational ability and stage presence. Diaz was manager for the renown Toros Band. He made Acosta a life-changing offer, and by 1991 Acosta's voice was heard all over Dominican radio. Los Toros Band's record Se Soltaron became a national hit, featuring the young and talented Héctor Acosta. The singer enjoyed success and widespread acclaim with the group, enjoying a number of hits during his years as a member, including the landmark album Raices. In 2006, after 15 years under the wings of his artistic mentors Gerardo and Juan Pablo Diaz, Acosta left the group to form his own orchestra. His premier release as a solo artist came in October of the same year. Sigo Siendo Yo generated radio hits such as "Me Voy" and "Primavera Azul," which showed up on U.S. and Dominican tropical music charts. Acosta performs all over the states in dance halls, festivals, and clubs alongside some of merengue's most popular artists. ~ Evan C. Gutierrez, All Music Guide

Me Puedo Matar
Hector Acosta Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tu sentimientos te dominan cuando tu me dices que te vas
Y reclamas tantas cosas, y me dices que nunca hubo pas
Incluso dices que me odias y que no me quieres ver jamas
Torito:
Pero de repente todo cambia, te hago falta y me llamas para tras
Y todo vuelve ser normal, tengo miedo porque te amo mas
Sera un infierno te confieso, si algún día tu decisión sea final
Bachata Heightz:

Y ya no se que pasara cuando vea que en verdad te vas
Mi corazon no va aguantar, y va dejar de palpitar
Y tengo miedo cometer un delito, porque hasta me puedo matar

Y tu te vas sin pensar, que hasta me puedo matar (2x)

Tu sentimientos te dominan cuando tu me dices que te vas
Y reclamas tantas cosas, y me dices que nunca hubo pas
Incluso dices que me odias y que no me quieres ver jamas
Bachata Heightz:
Pero de repente todo cambia, te hago falta y me llamas para tras
Y todo vuelve ser normal, tengo miedo porque te amo mas
Sera un infierno te confieso, si algún día tu decisión sea final

Y ya no se que pasara cuando vea que en verdad te vas
Mi corazon no va aguantar, y va dejar de palpitar
Y tengo miedo cometer un delito, porque hasta me puedo matar

Y tu te vas sin pensar, que hasta me puedo matar (2x)

Y ya no se que pasara cuando vea que en verdad te vas
Mi corazon no va aguantar, y va dejar de palpitar
Y tengo miedo cometer un delito, porque hasta me puedo matar

Y tu te vas sin pensar, que hasta me puedo matar (2x)

Que hasta me puedo matar si tu te vas(4x)

The lyrics of Hector Acosta El Torito's song Me Puedo Matar express the intense emotions of a person who feels helpless and at the mercy of their significant other's decision to leave. The song starts with the singer expressing how their feelings overwhelm them when their partner tells them they are leaving. The partner is upset, claims that there was never any passion, that they hate the singer, and that they never want to see them again. The singer is devastated. However, the partner eventually has a change of heart, and everything returns to normal. The singer is scared because they love their partner even more, and they fear that if their partner decides to leave again, it will be excruciatingly painful.

The song continues with the fear of losing someone driving the singer to the brink of self-destruction. The singer admits that they could even commit suicide if their partner were to leave them. The chorus repeats the line, "Y tu te vas sin pensar, que hasta me puedo matar," which means that the partner is leaving without realizing the devastating impact it would have on the singer, who could end up harming themselves.
