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.
