COMO UN G Lyrics in English ROSALÍA

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song COMO UN G by ROSALÍA from Spanish to English.
If you can't have it you'll have to let it go
I'm not by your side, but I wish you peace and freedom
Don't pray for me, I want that you know that I'm fine
I have my faith, my guns, my heart that I don't know for whom
I don't sleep at all and I go like I was armored
Sorry if I forget that it's just your birthday
So many shelves will be left undedicated
I'm sad if I think about the good I have that can't last
Only love is paid with love
I owe you nothing and you owe me nothing
The love that isn't given, where does it end?
If I find yours it'll already be a debt paid
If you can't have it, better let it go
What a shame when you have something
But God has other plans for you
I don't fall for anybody, I swear, like a G
Nor do I write love songs
But in this one I bend for you
Where did the night catch me? I got lost
The headlights of the cars take me over there
Where did the night catch me? I got lost
Headlights take me over there
Only love is paid with love
I owe you nothing
And you owe me nothing
The love that isn't given, where does it end?
If I find yours it'll already be a debt paid
Save me, save me
Again, again
Send me, send me
Angels, angels
Save me, save me
Again, again
Send me, send me
Angels, angels
Like a real G
Without bodyguards I wander around
That I kill, that I kill, I kill for you
Singing you ballads at dawn
Who was going to tell me
But tell me, tell me who dares to say it to me
That I'll always love you even if I don't have you
That you'll always have me even if you don't love me
That I'll always love you even if I don't have you
That you'll always have me even if you don't love me
Da, da, da, da, dararada
Da, da, da, da, dararada
Da, da, da, da, dararada
Da, da, da, da, dararada
Da, da, da, da

SONG MEANING

Rosalía’s “COMO UN G” is a bold confession that blends street swagger with heartfelt vulnerability. Over an atmospheric beat, she steps into the role of a G — someone tough, fearless, and self-reliant — yet she openly wrestles with love that cannot stay. The lyrics move like a midnight drive: headlights, sleepless nights, and a heart that refuses to quit. She tells her absent lover, “If you can’t keep it, let it go,” wishing them peace and freedom even while promising she would “matar por ti.” It’s a striking mix of armor and tenderness, faith and doubt, independence and longing.

At its core, the song is about emotional debts, accepting destiny, and the paradox of loving from a distance. Rosalía repeats “Sólo el amor con amor se paga” (Only love pays for love) to underline that true affection must be freely given, never owed. She prays for angels, clings to her faith, and reminds us that sometimes the bravest act is releasing what we cherish. “COMO UN G” ultimately celebrates a love that survives without possession, sung by an artist who can be both warrior and romantic in the very same breath.
