SONG MEANING

“Falta De Respeto” (which translates to “Lack of Respect”) plunges us into the push-and-pull drama of a romance that refuses to settle. Carla Morrison sings from the perspective of someone who offers “lo mejor de mí”—the very best of herself—only to watch her partner drift in and out like unpredictable tides. Each time he reappears her heart races with hope, yet his quick departures leave her questioning, “¿Cómo me desprendo yo de ti?” The song captures that addictive cycle where desire, doubt, and a craving for validation collide, painting love as both a dazzling diamond and a wearying obsession.

Underneath the dreamy vocals lies a warning rendered with a wink. Morrison reminds her fickle lover that karma eventually levels the playing field: one day he will chase someone who toys with him the way he toys with her. By blending poetic Spanish lyrics with a silky indie-pop sound, the Mexican-American artist turns heartache into a relatable anthem about knowing your worth—even when your feelings say otherwise.
