Rencor translates to 'grudge', 'resentment', or 'bitterness'. It is a strong, expressive noun used to describe holding onto past pain or anger instead of moving forward.
In the lyrics, Bad Bunny sings, "Que no tengo tiempo pa' guardar rencor" (I don't have time to hold a grudge). By pairing it with the verb guardar (to keep or store), he highlights the mental toll of storing up negative energy, ultimately urging listeners to let go and live freely before their time runs out.
“Antes Que Se Acabe” is Bad Bunny’s spirited reminder that life is a roller-coaster of sunny highs and rainy lows, so we might as well enjoy every twist while we can. Over a feel-good reggaetón beat, he blesses listeners with paz and love, then confesses that some days we smile and others we cry. Instead of fighting that rhythm, he invites us to close our eyes, spread our wings, and embrace both laughter and tears as fuel for the ride.
The lyrics celebrate living in the now: dancing, kissing, long-boarding, raising a shot “de amor,” and letting music erase grudges. Bad Bunny paints life as a movie where each of us directs our own scene, guided by unity and equality — “abraza a tu hermano y no mires el color.” The takeaway is clear: before the party ends, choose joy, compassion, and fearless self-expression… and if problems come knocking, answer with a kiss rather than a fight.
