Prince Royce dives into the rush of irresistible attraction in La Corriente. The title means “The Current,” and that current is the powerful pull of a lover who keeps him simultaneously thrilled and off-balance. From the hypnotic kisses to the sway of her waist, every line paints a picture of a man who knows he is being used yet can’t stay away. He compares himself to water in a river, happily flowing wherever she leads, proving that logic has no place when passion takes over.
Bouncing between Spanish and English, the lyrics capture the push-and-pull of a love that feels a little dangerous but completely addictive. Royce admits he might be “crazy,” but those wet lips make him feel alive, and the mere thought of losing her sends him spiraling. Even when they are apart, her memory resurfaces, showing how deep the infatuation runs. La Corriente is a playful, catchy confession that sometimes following the current is easier—and far more exciting—than trying to swim against it.
