Lebo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Se salió de mi control
Sé muy bien que no es sano
No hagas que no sé cómo explicar
Que no quiero contestar
Sé que no es la primera vez

The next line "se salió de mi control" reaffirms that the situation is out of their control. The singer recognizes that the situation is unhealthy and "no es sano" meaning "it's not healthy".
In the next few lines, the singer is being asked about the situation but does not know how to explain it. "No hagas que no sé cómo explicar" translates to "Don't ask me, I don't know how to explain it". The singer does not want to answer and "no quiero contestar". The final line "Sé que no es la primera vez" means "I know it's not the first time". This implies that the singer has been in a similar situation before and may indicate a pattern.
Overall, the lyrics of "Marcas" suggest a loss of control and an unhealthy situation. The singer is struggling to explain the situation and may have experienced something similar in the past. The emotions conveyed in the song are complex and demonstrate the introspective nature of Lebo's music.
