Soy El Unico Lyrics in English by Yahritza Y Su Esencia
Cuento literally translates to "story" or "tale," often one you'd tell a child. In this song of heartbreak, however, the word is used with a much sharper and more dismissive meaning.
When the singer says, "Pero ese cuento ya se acabó" (But that story is over now), he's rejecting his ex-partner's narrative. He's calling their excuses a mere cuento—a fantasy or a lie that he is no longer willing to believe. It's a powerful way to declare that the charade is finally over.
In "Soy El Único", Yahritza Y Su Esencia deliver a direct, no-nonsense breakup track that balances lingering attachment with sheer exhaustion. The song begins with a heavy sigh of disappointment: "Qué triste es amar a otra persona / Que no te sepa valorar" ("How sad it is to love another person / Who doesn't know how to value you"). There is a real sense of frustration over wasted effort, especially when the lyrics point out that starting over from scratch ("empezar desde cero") just to please someone else has run its course. Even though Yahritza admits a weak moment—"quiero que seas mía por sólo un rato" ("I want you to be mine for just a little while")—the final verdict is firm. That chapter is finished.
What makes the track so catchy is its bold confidence. Instead of just pleading or moping, Yahritza throws down a direct challenge: "Búscate a otro que te pueda dar / Lo mismo que yo" ("Go find someone else who can give you / The same thing I gave you"). You get a blend of blunt realization about lost time ("Mucho tiempo me gastaste" / "You wasted a lot of my time") alongside the absolute certainty that no replacement will measure up: "Soy el único" ("I am the only one"). It is a bold goodbye aimed at someone who only lets go because they know they took the best treatment for granted.
