¿Cuántas peleas recuerdan
How many fights do you remember
Las líneas de mis manos?
The lines of my hands?
¿Cuántas historias caben
How many stories fit
Metidas en 21 gramos?
Packed into 21 grams?
Tú que estás lejos
You who are far away
Y a la vez más cerca
And at the same time closer
Tú que estás lejos
You who are far away
Y a la vez más cerca
And at the same time closer
Que mi propia vena yugular
Than my own jugular vein
من أجلك أدمر السماء
For you, I'll destroy the sky
من أجلك أهدم الجحي
For you, I will tear down hell
فال وعود
False promises
وال وعيد
False threats
Mira yo no tengo tiempo
Look, I don't have time
Para odiar a lucifer
To hate Lucifer
Estoy demasiado ocupada
I'm too busy
Amándote a ti Undibel
Loving you, Undibel
Mi corazón
My heart
Que siempre está en una carrera
That is always in a race
Estoy cortando las flores
I'm cutting the flowers
Antes de que sea primavera
Before spring arrives
Donde atan los caballos
Where they tie the horses
Los míos bien amarrados
Mine tied up tight
La sangre y la suerte
The blood and the luck
Aquí me han arrastrado
Here I’ve been dragged
Tu amor es una avalancha
Your love is an avalanche
Cae por su propio peso al existir
It falls by its own weight in existence
Ayer, hoy y mañana
Yesterday, today, and tomorrow
La nieve en la que me quiero hundir
The snow I wish to sink in
من أجلك أدمر السماء
For you, I destroy the sky
من أجلك أهدم الجحي
For you, I destroy hell
فال وعود
False promises
وال وعيد
And false threats
Yo quepo en el mundo
I fit in the world
Y el mundo cabe en mí
And the world fits in me
Yo ocupo el mundo
I occupy the world
Y el mundo me ocupa a mí
And the world occupies me
Yo quepo en un haiku
I fit in a haiku
Y un haiku ocupa un país
And a haiku occupies a country
Un país cabe en una astilla
A country fits in a splinter
Una astilla ocupa la galaxia entera
A splinter occupies the whole galaxy
La galaxia entera cabe en una gota de saliva
The entire galaxy fits in a drop of saliva
Una gota de saliva ocupa la 5a avenida
A drop of saliva fills Fifth Avenue
La 5a avenida cabe en un piercing
Fifth Avenue fits in a piercing
Un piercing ocupa una pirámide
A piercing occupies a pyramid
Y una pirámide cabe en un vaso de leche
And a pyramid fits in a glass of milk
Y un vaso de leche ocupa un ejército
And a glass of milk occupies an army
Y un ejército cabe metido en una pelota de golf
And an army fits inside a golf ball
Y una pelota de golf ocupa el Titanic
And a golf ball occupies the Titanic
El Titanic cabe en un pintalabios
The Titanic fits in a lipstick
Un pintalabios ocupa el cielo
A lipstick fills the sky
El cielo es la espina
The sky is the thorn
Una espina ocupa un continente
A thorn occupies a continent
Y un continente no cabe en Él
And a continent can't fit in Him
Pero Él cabe en mi pecho
But He fits in my chest
Y mi pecho ocupa su amor
And my chest holds His love
Y en su amor me quiero perder
And in His love, I want to lose myself
7 heavens
7 heavens
Big deal
Big deal
I wanna see the 8th heaven
I wanna see the 8th heaven
10th heaven
10th heaven
Thousandth heaven
Thousandth heaven
You know, it's like
You know, it's like
Break on through the other side
Break on through to the other side
It's just like going through one door
It's just like walking through one door
One door isn't enough
One door isn't enough
A million doors aren't enough
A million doors aren't enough

About this song
Flouting genre conventions while exploring silence and space as much as sound, ROSALÍA has remade flamenco and pop in the process.
