Aguacero means a sudden, heavy downpour of rain. It's a vivid and dramatic word that isn't typical in most pop lyrics.
Maluma uses it in a striking metaphor: "Como perder el sol con un aguacero" (Like losing the sun to a downpour). He's illustrating how a moment of happiness and clarity can be instantly ruined by a sudden disaster, perfectly capturing the fear of ruining his relationship.
Have you ever heard someone try to apologize for something they haven't even done yet? That's exactly what Maluma does in this song. He's telling his partner, "Me da miedo perderte" (I'm scared of losing you), but in the same breath, he gives her a very strange warning. He confesses that he'll probably cheat on her someday, but asks her not to take it personally! He claims it's not because he'll stop loving her, but because of his "instinto natural" (natural instinct).
He tries to soften the blow by promising that if he does mess up, it will only be physical. He says, "si caigo en otras bocas / No meto el corazón en esas cosas" (if I fall into other mouths / I don't put my heart into those things). He argues it's better to be honest now than for her to find out later from a surprise text message. It's a bold and pretty wild excuse, basically asking for forgiveness in advance for breaking her heart.
