Tenías Razón Lyrics in English Yeison Jimenez

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Tenías Razón by Yeison Jimenez from Spanish to English.
Yes, you were right
When you said that this was going to change
When you said that it was the best
For both of us, to end
Yes, you were right
When you said that this was going to change
When you said that it was the best
For both of us, to end
I can't believe it
It's so hard to explain
There's no joy, nor sadness, you see
But something I can assure you
Your prophecy didn't come true
I'm not dead yet
And here I am
Eager to live and to fight
Wounded but I can save myself
I think of you but no, no
I haven't wanted to call you
And here I am
I can hold back and not cry
Several days have passed, you're not here
I don't know anything about you
But you're starting to not matter to me
Yeison Jiménez
With the heart
You were right when you said love
That nothing would be the same again
That everything, everything, everything is over
Today I repeat to you that I don't want more
Your prophecy didn't come true
I'm not dead yet
And here I am
Eager to live and to fight
Wounded but I can save myself
I think of you but no, no
I haven't wanted to call you
And here I am
I can hold back and not cry
Several days have passed, you're not here
I don't know anything about you
But you're starting to not matter to me

SONG MEANING

Colombian singer Yeison Jiménez turns heartbreak into a power-up in “Tenías Razón.” The title means “You Were Right,” and the song opens with the narrator admitting that, yes, his former love correctly predicted their relationship would end. What she did not foresee was his resilience. Instead of the dramatic collapse she imagined, he stands tall: “Aún no he muerto… con ganas de vivir y de luchar” (“I’m not dead yet… I still want to live and fight”). The track captures that surreal calm after a breakup when you feel neither pure joy nor total sadness, just a strange mix of wounds and fresh determination.

By the second verse, the tables have turned. Days pass, the ex fades from his thoughts, and the so-called prophecy of his ruin fails spectacularly. Jiménez blends traditional ranchera guitars with modern pop touches to underscore a message of self-healing, pride, and forward motion. Learners can listen for useful past-tense phrases like “Pasaron varios días” (“Several days went by”) and reflective verbs such as “te pienso” (“I think of you”). In short, the song celebrates that liberating moment when you stop just surviving a breakup and start thriving beyond it.
