Me Lo Merezco Lyrics in English by Elena Rose
Merezco is the 'I' form of the verb merecer, meaning 'to deserve'. It's a powerful word of self-affirmation that's key to building confidence when speaking a new language.
In her song, Elena Rose repeats the phrase "me lo merezco" (I deserve it) like a mantra. She's not just talking about deserving a view of the sea ("vista al mar") but also happiness, peace, and good things in life, making this the song's empowering central theme.
Elena Rose turns pure self-worth into a bright pop anthem with "Me Lo Merezco" (I Deserve It). Instead of stressing over time ticking away, she stays locked in the moment, singing, "Las cosas más bonitas, bebé, de la vida / No se ven pero se sienten" ("The most beautiful things in life, baby, aren't seen, they're felt"). She rolls down the car window to wave her hand in the breeze like making waves, giving thanks for the world around her while dropping a funny reality check: "Abrir los ojos porque si no, chocamos" ("Open your eyes, because if we don't, we'll crash"). The chorus is a straight list of things she claims for herself: true love, an ocean view, blue skies, and "una vida cool" ("a cool life"). She uses the Venezuelan slang phrase "la vaina se me da" (roughly meaning "things work out for me" or "my stuff comes together"), declaring that whatever is meant for her is already on its way.
She keeps the vibe effortless in the second verse, claiming she glides through life like Michael Jackson "moonwalking" and shakes off bad vibes so easily that even in the rain, "no se me empañan los Oakleys" ("my Oakleys sunglasses don't fog up"). Elena mixes in an English reminder that "you don't want to wait for your life to be over" only to realize you never actually lived it, while still acknowledging that "también está bien estar triste" ("it's also okay to be sad"). By the end, she calls herself a "guerrera de la luz" ("warrior of light"), treating gratitude and self-affirmation like daily essentials.
