¡Corre! by the Mexican sibling duo Jesse & Joy paints a vivid picture of a breakup in motion. Sung from Joy’s perspective, the lyrics capture the exact moment she realizes that her partner’s affection has cooled. The once-warm hugs now feel empty, every conversation is cut off with his “always right” script, and the relationship has become so predictable that she can almost recite his lines before he speaks. Tired of rehearsing the same painful scene, she tells him to run—because running away is what he does best.
Far from a tear-soaked lament, the song turns heartbreak into empowerment. Joy firmly refuses to shed another tear or chase after him. Instead, she hands him his freedom, all while reclaiming her own. With its catchy melody and decisive chorus, ¡Corre! transforms the act of saying goodbye into a victory lap, reminding listeners that sometimes the fastest way to heal is to let the runner keep running.
