Verse 1
I swore
And I had told you that
I wasn't going to call you anymore
But it's that all day I don't stop thinking about you
Or: But the truth is, I can't stop thinking about you all day
I don't accept that it ended
Or: I can't accept that it's over
That this ended
Or: That this is over
And now that I got drunk, put me on speaker
Chorus 1
So that you hear me loud and clear
That I still haven't forgotten you
I can't get used to being without you
I miss your kiss
Or: I need a kiss from you
Please, my love, don't hang up
Better tell me when you come back
Or: Just tell me when you're coming back
So that those days return
When you were loving me
Or: When yes, you did love me
I know that it's not the time to be calling
But to be heartbroken there's no schedule
Or: But there's no schedule for being heartbroken
And this is Grupo Frontera
And my buddy Junior, ayayay
Verse 2
I know that you love me and that you miss me
Like I've missed you
Why are you angry? Tell me what you want
Hiding your desires from me
I know that you love me and that you miss me
Like I've missed you
Why are you angry? Tell me what you want
Hiding your desires from me
Because of you, I continue drinking
I got drunk and that's why I'm calling you
Chorus 2
So that you hear me loud and clear
That I still haven't forgotten you
I can't get used to being without you
I miss your kiss
Please, my love, don't hang up
Better tell me when you come back
So that those days return
When you were loving me
Outro
I know that it's not the time to be calling
But to be heartbroken there's no schedule
I know that it's not the time to be calling
But to be heartbroken there's no schedule

altavoz — speakerphone

Altavoz literally means "loudspeaker" or "speakerphone," combining the words alta (loud) and voz (voice).

In this song's emotional chorus, the singer asks his ex to "ponme en altavoz" (put me on speakerphone). He wants to make sure his declaration of love is heard loud and clear, not just by her, but by anyone else who might be listening. This single word captures the entire dramatic and vulnerable scene of the song.

We have all made promises we break the second alcohol gets involved, and that is the exact mess playing out in "EN ALTAVOZ". Grupo Frontera and Junior H team up for the ultimate late-night drunk dial. The narrator swore he would never dial her number again ("Juré / Y te había dicho que / Ya no te iba a llamar" [I swore / And I had told you that / I wasn't going to call you anymore]), but after a few drinks, all his self-control vanishes. Instead of sneaking a quiet text, he demands she put him on speakerphone ("ponme en altavoz") so she hears loud and clear that he still misses her kisses and cannot get used to life without her.

What makes this track so fun is how shamelessly honest it is about the desperation. The lyrics use blunt Mexican slang like "me puse pedo" (literally "I got fart," which means "I got drunk") to explain away the midnight call. He begs her not to hang up ("Por favor, mi amor, no cuelgues") and drops the best excuse in the whole track: "Sé que no son horas para estar llamando / Pero para andar dolido no hay horario" (I know it's not the right time to be calling / But for being heartbroken, there is no schedule). He even tries to flip the blame back on her, asking what she gains by staying mad and hiding what she really feels. It is messy, slightly dramatic, and completely relatable when you are hurting after a breakup.
