Verse 1

Everything seems to be good

But nothing is what it seems

I didn't know how to give you my hundred

Or: I couldn't give you my all

Although I tried many times

I tried but I failed

All my mistakes I already reviewed

And now tell me how do I sleep if you don't belong to me?

Prechorus 1

Grandma told me love doesn't work

Who you least expect leaves and betrays you

You left without saying goodbye

As if you never loved me

Chorus 1

I gave you what you asked for

And it wasn't enough

You only lied

And I your faithful believer

And I (was) your faithful believer

A thousand dreams you sold me

Or: You sold me a thousand dreams

I was your client

I was always the guilty one

And you playing the innocent one

Verse 2

You quietly checking my messages

And me foolishly taking you on trips

Or: And me taking you on trips

A nebula, everything was a visage

You left home and took your luggage

Nobody is going to love you like me

Nor is going to f*ck you like me

And now she wants me to stay calm

If a son of a b*tch tricked me

Or: If a son of a b*tch made fun of me

In the midst of this situation

My heart doesn't hurt

It hurts that you believed another b*stard something about me

Or: What hurts is how you believed what that bastard said about me

That I screwed you all night

You forgot that we destroyed all my cars

Every month a new perfume

I even bought you grass to smoke, baby

I don't want you to lack anything

And I hope that b*stard pays for your nail polish

I don't wish you harm

But you're going to think of me every time that you wake up

Chorus 2

I gave you what you asked for

And it wasn't enough

You only lied

And I your faithful believer

A thousand dreams you sold me

I was your client

Or: I was your customer

I was always the guilty one

And you playing the innocent one

Verse 3

You sold me dreams and I was your client

That innocent face

Only the rest of the people believe you

Maybe I'm masochistic or I just have bad luck

I ask God to see if he helps me with you

I won't call you, I clarify the doubt

Or: I'm not thinking of calling you, I'll clarify that doubt (in case you wondered)

I want to be free like Venezuela and Cuba

You never spoke clearly, you pretended to be mute

Or: You never spoke clearly, you became silent

You wanted attention and I put you in the center

You wanted my heart and I put it on discount

You asked for fifty and I gave you one hundred percent

You asked me for a watch and I wasted my time

I'm left waiting for your message to arrive

I ate another a*s, but thinking of your face

Or: I hooked up with someone else, but I was thinking about you

Stay with the guilt and also with the expensive clothes

Or: Keep the guilt and also the expensive clothes

And remember that betrayal is paid with betrayal

Chorus 3

I gave you what you asked for

And it wasn't enough

You only lied

And I your faithful believer

A thousand dreams you sold me

I was your client

Or: I was your customer

I was always the guilty one

And you playing the innocent one

al garete — adrift / off the rails

Al garete is a popular slang phrase that literally means "adrift", like a ship lost at sea without a rudder. It's used to describe a situation that is chaotic, or a person who is living recklessly and without direction.

In the song, Mora sings "Y yo al garete llevándote de viaje" (And me, recklessly taking you on trips). He uses this phrase to paint a picture of how he was lost in the relationship, spending money and living wildly for his partner, all while she was deceiving him.

In "LA INOCENTE", Puerto Rican artist Mora teams up with Colombian singer Feid to vent about an ex who pulled off the ultimate innocent act. The central punchline is right in the chorus: "Siempre era yo el culpable / Y tú jugando a la inocente" ("I was always the guilty one / And you playing the innocent girl"). Mora admits he bought into every lie she sold him, joking bitterly that "Mil sueños me vendías / Yo fui tu cliente" ("You sold me a thousand dreams / I was your customer"). From paying off cars and buying her perfume every month to taking her on wild trips ("al garete", Puerto Rican slang for "reckless" or "all over the place"), he gave her everything. Meanwhile, she secretly snooped through his texts ("Tú calladita chequeando mis mensajes") and walked out the door without so much as a goodbye.

Feid hops in with his signature bluntness, listing the petty score-settling that comes after being played for a fool. He cracks that he wants to be free like Venezuela and Cuba ("Yo quiero ser libre igual que Venezuela y Cuba") and tosses off lines full of bitter humor: "Me pediste un reloj y yo perdiendo mi tiempo" ("You asked me for a watch and here I was wasting my time"). There is also real Caribbean street slang to unpack here, like when Mora snaps that someone "me choteó" ("snitched on me" or "ratted me out"), prompting his ex to believe rumors over him. By the time Feid tells her to keep the expensive clothes ("ropa cara") while warning that betrayal gets paid back with betrayal, the song turns a messy breakup into a catchy, sarcastic send-off.
