bellaqueamos — we get freaky / we flirt naughtily

Bellaquear is a very common slang term in reggaeton and Latin trap music, and it means to engage in playful, often sexually suggestive, flirting or foreplay. It's more than just flirting; it implies a mutual understanding of sexual tension and desire.

In "Déjate Llevar," Alex Rose uses bellaqueamos to set the scene for an intimate encounter, suggesting a playful yet sensual interaction. He even references a past memory: "¿Te acuerdas? bellaqueamos escuchando a Arca y De La" (Remember? We got freaky listening to Arca and De La), highlighting its recurring role in their relationship. This word is key to understanding the song's steamy and provocative vibe.

The first verse is one long complaint about a very modern kind of limbo. Alex Rose is being kept interested from a safe distance: "Enviando fotitos para calentarme" (Sending little pics to heat me up), "Pensando que yo nunca voy a llegarle" (Thinking I am never actually going to show up). So he shows up, and the song's whole posture changes. "Y ahora que me tienes de frente" (And now that you have got me right in front of you), he says, and then hands the decision straight back: "Dime ¿qué piensas hacer?" (Tell me, what do you plan to do?). The title is his advice for the pause that follows. "Tú sólo déjate llevar" (You just let yourself go), with "Que pa' luego es tarde" (Because later it will be too late) attached like a shrug.

Lyanno's verse is closer to a confession than a pickup line. He admits to "Matándome, como loco deseándote" (Killing myself, wanting you like crazy) over a photo on his phone, which is the same photo the first verse was annoyed about. The bluntest line is the best one: "Tu jevo no sabe nada, así que olvídate de él" (Your dude does not know anything, so forget about him), and right after it, "Sólo somos tú y yo, apaguemos el cel" (It is just you and me, let us turn off our phones). It is a duet about phones, really: the first verse resents them and the second one asks you to switch yours off.
