Solita
Kali Uchis & Rico Nasty Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Mm, mm, mm
Mm, mm, mm

Como una espina de rosa
Cuando yo te vi con otra
Fue lo que sentí
Te quiero pa' mí
Ere' una calle rota
Serpiente venenosa
Anoche soñé que estabas aquí

Well, I got a feeling
These scars won't ever look like they're old news
If I let you keep on
Rubbin' salt into all my open wounds
I wish I could keep everything
That you took of me but the photos
But you keep a piece of me
Locked in a secret spot we called home

Solita, solita
Bailando aquí sola, como a mí me gusta
Solita, solita
Bailando aquí sola
Es mejor que con el diablo

(Mm, mm, mm)
Sola, sola, sola, sola
Sola, sola, sola, sola
Mejor que con el diablo
Mejor que con el diablo (mm, mm, mm)
Sola, sola, sola, sola
Sola, sola, sola, sola

Rooted in your ways
You won't ever know, you won't ever stay
Who I am today, the roots of my soul
Now I need to face
My demons alone (mm, mm, mm)
So close, I could smell his cologne
He asked me why I'm all alone

Solita, solita
Bailando aquí sola, como a mí me gusta
Solita, solita
Bailando aquí sola
Es mejor que con el diablo

(Mm, mm, mm)
Sola, sola, sola, sola
Sola, sola, sola, sola
Mejor que con el diablo
Mejor que con el diablo (mm, mm, mm)




Sola, sola, sola, sola
Sola, sola, sola, sola

Overall Meaning

The song "sOlitA" by Kali Uchis is about the feeling of being alone after the end of a relationship. The lyrics start with the metaphor of a thorn on a rose, which represents the pain that the singer feels when she saw her ex with somebody else. She admits that she still wants him despite the hurt he caused her. She describes him as a broken street and a venomous snake, highlighting the danger that he represents to her. In her dream, she wishes he was with her, showing the conflicting emotions she has towards him.


The chorus, "solita, solita," means "alone, alone" in English. The singer acknowledges that being by herself is better than being with her ex or even the devil. She prefers to dance alone, which is something she enjoys doing, and wants to face her demons alone, without any help. The bridge suggests that her ex is unable to understand who she is now, and she needs to face her truths alone. The line "so close, I could smell his cologne" indicates that he is still in her life, but as a memory.


Overall, "sOlitA" is a song about self-discovery, growth, and healing. It encourages listeners to embrace their solitude and face their inner demons alone, without relying on others.

[Letra de "Aquí Yo Mando"]

[Kali Uchis]
I'm your little mamacita (-cita)
Haces todo lo que diga, yeah
Si estás conmigo solo mando yo, yeah
Aquí no es cómo y cuando pidas


Mando, aquí yo mando
Si quieres conmigo vete acostumbrando (Yeah-yeah, eh)
Tantos me están buscando
Y si no te gusta, ya otro está llamando


Yo tomo las decisiones, yo escojo las posiciones
Puedes tener los cojones, pero yo los pantalones
No, no, she can't do it like me
Throw it down, wishin' you could see the look upon your face (No, no, no)


Eh, I'm your little mamacita (Mamacita)
Haces todo lo que diga, yeah
Si estás conmigo solo mando yo, yeah
Aquí no es cómo y cuando pidas



Mando, aquí yo mando (Soy-Soy)
Sé que soy tu obsesión como Romeo Santos (Romeo Santos)
Tantos me están buscando (No, no)
Y si no te gusta, ya otro—

[Rico Nasty]
I would never play about me
Do what I want, I don't need a thing
Boss bitch, you know where I be
Classy (Nasty) but still your freak, bae
They can't do it like me (So nasty)
No, they can't do it like me, bae
You know I ride that D, same way I did this beat, bae
I handle business, I'm bossy, yo quiero diamonds, I'm flossy
They wanna know what it cost me, de esas perras me cansé
Pensabas que yo era fácil, soy una perra de clase (Yeah-yeah)
No, I don't care if they watchin', soy más cara que Versace (Woh)

[Kali Uchis]
Prendo ese fuego a donde yo llego
Y quieren llegarme, pero yo lo freno
Luego, luego, ya vemos luego, yeh
Said if you're lucky then I'll see you later


La-la-la-la
Mmm, mamacita (La-la-la-la)
Haces todo lo que diga, yeah
Si estás conmigo solo mando yo, yeah
Aquí no es cómo y cuando pidas


Mando, aquí yo mando (Soy-Soy)
Sé que soy tu obsesión como Romeo Santos (Romeo Santos)
Tantos me están buscando (No, no)
Y si no te gusta, ya otro está llamando (¿Qué, qué?, eh)
