Rompe la ley, dale play
Break the law, hit play
Súbele a la música guatagüe
Turn up the music, guatagüe
Uh-oh, oh, oh-oh
Dale play (uh-oh, oh, oh-oh)
Hit play (uh-oh, oh, oh-oh)
Sobra el estrés, sobra la pena
Stress is left behind, grief is gone
Y falta música de la buena
And good music is what we're missing
Falta sol, falta mar
Missing sun, missing sea
Es hora de que el cuerpo vibre
It's time for the body to vibrate
De ser único, ser libre
To be unique, to be free
Sin un molde a calzar
Without a mold to fit into
Tratarán algunos de paralizarnos
Some will try to paralyze us
Pero hoy no vamos a
But today we won't
Callarnos no
Stay silent? No
Rompe la ley, dale play
Break the law, hit play
Súbele a la música guatagüe
Turn up the music, let's go
Uh-oh, oh, oh-oh
Dale play (uh-oh, oh, oh-oh)
Hit play (uh-oh, oh, oh-oh)
Dale play
Hit play
Pon mi canción en alta rotación
Put my song on heavy rotation
DJ tu tienes mi salvación (uh-oh, oh, oh-oh)
DJ, you have my salvation (uh-oh, oh, oh-oh)
Dale play (uh-oh, oh, oh-oh)
Hit play (uh-oh, oh, oh-oh)
Dale play (uh-oh)
Hit play (uh-oh)
Las líneas vamos desdibujando
We're blurring the lines
Y las paredes derrumbando
And tearing down the walls
Con un pulsar del tambor
With a thump of the drum
En cada cuadra, en cada esquina
On every block, on every corner
Se siente el cambio que se avecina
You can feel the change that is coming
Banderas multicolor
Multicolor flags
Y somos más los que creemos en amarnos
And we're more those who believe in loving each other
Y ya no vamos a
And we're not going to
Callarnos
Let's be quiet
Rompe la ley, dale play
Break the law, hit play
Súbele a la música guatagüe
Turn up the music, guatagüe
Uh-oh, oh, oh-oh
Dale play (uh-oh, oh, oh-oh)
Hit play (uh-oh, oh, oh-oh)
Dale play
Hit play
Pon mi canción en alta rotación
Put my song on high rotation
DJ tu tienes mi salvación (uh-oh, oh, oh-oh)
DJ, you have my salvation (uh-oh, oh, oh-oh)
Dale play (uh-oh, oh, oh-oh)

Dale play (uh-oh)
Hit play (uh-oh)
Rompe la ley, dale play
Break the law, hit play
Súbele a la música guatagüe
Turn up the music, guatagüe
Uh-oh, oh, oh-oh
Dale play (uh-oh, oh, oh-oh)
Hit play (uh-oh, oh, oh-oh)
Dale play
Hit play
Pon mi canción en alta rotación
Put my song on high rotation
DJ tu tienes mi salvación (uh-oh, oh, oh-oh)
