PATRAS Lyrics in English Becky G , Yahritza Y Su Esencia

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song PATRAS by Becky G from Spanish to English.
Verse 1
I can't deny you
I like you a lot
Verse 1
I dream about kissing you
And I sleep to dream of you
Verse 1
But unfortunately
That isn't enough
Verse 1
Maybe in the future
But not in the present
Chorus 1
Sometimes I think
that with you it'd be perfect
Chorus 1
But then I pull back
But then I pull back
Chorus 1
And sometimes I think
that I can ignore your flaws
Chorus 1
But then I pull back
But then I pull back
Chorus 1
You spend your time with chicks and at drunken parties
And that vibe doesn't click with me
Nobody's gonna change you
And that's the problem
That f*cking sweet talk you have is wild
That's why I don't believe that you love me
I want to fall in love
But loving you hurts
Sometimes I think
that with you it'd be perfect
Chorus 1
But then I pull back
But then I pull back
Chorus 1
And sometimes I think
that I can ignore your flaws
Chorus 1
But then I pull back
But then I pull back
Chorus 1
You spend your time with chicks and at drunken parties
And that vibe doesn't click with me
Nobody's gonna change you
And that's the problem
That f*cking sweet talk you have is savage
That's why I don't believe you that you love me
I want to fall in love
But loving you hurts

SONG MEANING

PATRAS riffs on the Spanish phrase pa' atrás ("step back"), capturing the tug-of-war between an irresistible crush and hard-won self-respect. Becky G joins forces with Yahritza Y Su Esencia to admit: she’s hooked, she dreams of kissing him, and in her mind they look picture-perfect together. But wanting and dreaming aren’t enough when reality keeps waving red flags.

Each time she leans in, she remembers why she should pull pa' atrás: he’s always partying, surrounded by other girls, and his smooth talk feels rehearsed. The chorus sums up the inner battle - "I think we’d be perfect… but then I step back." The result is a catchy, bittersweet anthem about choosing your own peace over a romance that hurts more than it heals.
