Verse 1

While my mind travels to where you are

My father shouts again

That I'm wasting my future and his peace

With my way of being

Although I hear him, I'm already far from here

I close my eyes and I'm already thinking of you

Chorus 1

And I’m a rebel

When I don't follow others

And I’m a rebel

When I love you like crazy

And I’m a rebel

When I don't think the same as yesterday

And I’m a rebel

When I put even my own skin on the line

Yes I'm a rebel

It's just that maybe

Nobody knows me well

Verse 2

One of these days I'm going to run away

To risk everything for a dream

Everything in life is win or lose

You have to bet, you have to bet without fear

It doesn't matter much what they say about me

I close my eyes and I'm already thinking of you

Chorus 2

And I’m a rebel

When I don't follow others

And I’m a rebel

When I love you like crazy

And I’m a rebel

When I don't think the same as yesterday

And I’m a rebel

When I put even my own skin on the line

Bridge

Yes I'm a rebel

It's just that maybe

It doesn't matter much what they say about me

I close my eyes and I'm already thinking of you

Chorus 3

And I’m a rebel

When I don't follow others

And I’m a rebel

When I love you like crazy

And I’m a rebel

When I don't think the same as yesterday

And I’m a rebel

When I put even my own skin on the line

And I’m a rebel

When I don't follow others

And I’m a rebel

When I love you like crazy

And I’m a rebel

When I don't think the same as yesterday

And I’m a rebel

When I put even my own skin on the line

And I’m a rebel

SONG MEANING

Rebelde is a high-energy pop anthem that raises the volume on teenage freedom and first love. The singer’s father scolds her for “wasting” her future, yet her thoughts immediately drift to the person she adores. Each shout of “Y soy rebelde” becomes a bold declaration that she will not follow the crowd. Instead of letting rules define her, she closes her eyes, thinks of her crush, and lets her imagination carry her far from home.

The song’s central message is simple: daring to live your own truth is worth any risk. Whether the outcome is a win or a loss, you must “bet without fear.” Love, dreams, and self-expression all demand courage, and the narrator is willing to stake everything—“hasta la piel,” down to the skin—to protect them. “Rebelde” invites listeners to embrace their unique voice, push past criticism, and chase big dreams with unbreakable passion.
