Intercambio Injusto paints the painful moment when you spot an ex looking happier than ever with someone new.

With raw regional Mexican melodies, he wrestles with regret, wishing he could go back and skip saying hello so he would never have fallen in love in the first place. The track blends youthful vulnerability with traditional guitar sounds, making every listener relive that bittersweet mix of heartbreak, jealousy, and unanswered questions.
