No Soy Un Reo Lyrics in English by Neto Reyno

“No Soy Un Reo” begins with someone who has given everything to a relationship and is still being blamed: “Dime, ¿qué más quieres de mí?” [Tell me, what more do you want from me?] The breakup has left his heart “espinado” [full of thorns], and he admits that time cannot fix it yet. He cries, remembers the person who once seemed to have everything he needed, and then reaches a clear decision: “Estoy mejor sin ti” [I’m better without you]. It is blunt, repeated, and convincing, like someone saying it until he finally believes it.

Then the song turns from heartbreak to a fiery pep talk. “No te apendejes” [don’t act foolish or lose your head] and “sal de esas broncas” [get out of those problems] use casual Mexican slang to push the listener forward. Life passes quickly, problems are everywhere, and the answer is to break the chain, keep your freedom, and “saca lo bueno de lo malo” [take the good from the bad]. The title, “No Soy Un Reo” [I’m not a prisoner], fits this release: he will not remain trapped by the old relationship, his pain, or the obstacles around him. Even after admitting that the wound cannot simply be forgotten, he chooses to keep moving and make his own play.
