Kali Uchis Lyrics

Ooh (wee-ooh, wee-ooh, wee-ooh, wee-ooh)
Introducing the song with harmonious sounds.

Ooh (wee-ooh, wee-ooh)
Repetition of the introduction.

These worldly possessions
Material possessions don't matter.

I don't need none of them
Not requiring worldly possessions to feel fulfilled.

Tú no me mereces (no, no)
You don't deserve me.

Someone could come love me
Hopeful for new and better love.

If somebody know me
Desiring someone who knows her true worth.

Tú no me conoces (ghost, ghost)
You don't really know me.

Take a little sip, take a little puff
Engaging in drugs to escape reality.

Don't want to think, don't want to talk, no
Avoiding thoughts and conversations about the past.

Is it enough, is it too much, oh
Questioning the effectiveness of the escape methods.

I'm not this, I'm not done
Refusing to be defined by the past.

Y me voy en el Jeep a las doce
Leaving in a Jeep at midnight.

The backseat donde yo te conocí
Referring to the backseat where they met.

Si me voy no pierdas de vista
If she leaves, don't lose sight of her.

Hay cosas que se tatúan sin tinta
Some things leave a permanent mark.

Fue mejor volar pa no caerme (ooh, yeah)
It was better to fly than to fall.

No, amor, no me duele perderte (no)
No longer feeling pain from losing the person.

Ya no estoy, pero nunca olvidas
She's gone, but he'll never forget her.

Hay cosas que se tatúan sin tinta
Repeating the importance of permanent memories.

Ya no me pesa na' (no pesa na')
No longer burdened by the past.

La vida me trata bien (me trata bien)
Life is good to her now.

Tú estás con otra haciendo las cosas
He's moved on to another woman.

Que en mi cama te enseñé (que te enseñé)
Reminiscing on intimate moments shared.

Pa' nada, si después me llamas
Recognizing when he calls it's pointless.

Me dices que todo tú extrañas
He admits to missing everything about her.

Soy tu favorita, la que necesitas
Acknowledging that he desires her.

Pero yo no estoy pa' que eso se repita
But she's not returning to him.

El precio de tu amor lo pagué (lo pagué)
He paid a high price for her love.

Si cuando te perdí me encontré, eh
Realizing that losing her led to his growth.

Lo siento, mi camino cambié (cambié)
Apologizing for changing paths without her.

Pero para bien (para bien)
But it was for the better.

Connected with our bodies and our soul (oh)
Reflecting on the past connection they shared.

Connected and I'm never letting go (oh)
Promising to hold onto the memories forever.

Baby, once I got ahold of you, I
Feeling lucky to have had her once.

That's when I knew
Realizing the connection was real.

I'd be there for you whenever you need (yeah)
Promising to be there for her no matter what.

But sometimes you feel you're better off without me (without me)
Acknowledging that sometimes it's best to move on.

(Ooh)
Vocals to accompany the transition in the song.

Fue mejor volar pa' no caerme
Repeating it was better to fly than fall.

No, amor, no me duele perderte
Reassuring that she's not upset with his decision to move on.

Ya no estoy, pero nunca olvidas
Again, saying he's gone but not forgotten.

Hay cosas que se tatúan sin tinta
Final reminder that some things leave a permanent mark.

Y me fui en el Jeep a las doce
Repeating the previous lyrics.

The backseat donde yo te conocí
Reference to where they met.

Si me voy no pierdas de vista
Repeating advice to not lose sight of her.

Hay cosas que se tatúan sin tinta
Final refrain repeating that some things leave a permanent mark.
