espejo — mirror

Espejo literally means mirror.

In the line "La que jodió esto está en tu espejo", the singer tells his ex that the person who ruined the relationship is the one staring back at her. This vivid, self-reflective metaphor makes the word memorable and adds a dramatic flair that’s perfect for expanding your Spanish vocabulary.

Ever check the clock right at 11:11, ready to make a wish, only to realize you don't even want that person back anymore? That is the exact moment Puerto Rican producer Tainy builds around in "11 Y ONCE", bringing in Panamanian singer Sech and electronic producer E.VAX. Sech kicks things off listening to late-90s pop-punk band Blink-182 while realizing things are totally dead, dropping the hilarious line: "Nosotros no, no conectamos ni con Bluetooth" [We don't even connect with Bluetooth]. The relationship ran into constant fighting, and he is done dealing with her "fucking actitud" [fucking attitude]. Even when trying to patch things up, it was doomed: "Hicimos un corazón con dos partes rotas" [We made a heart out of two broken pieces]. Trying to glue two fractured halves together just left them both hurting.

The chorus hits with brutal honesty. He delivers the title punchline with "11:11 y ya no te deseo" [11:11 and I don't wish for you anymore], playing on the everyday superstition that seeing 11:11 brings your wishes to life. He cares about her, sure, but strictly from a safe distance: "Yo te sigo queriendo, pero lejos" [I still love you, but from far away]. And instead of taking the blame, he tells her straight up to look at herself: "La que jodió esto está en tu espejo" [The one who screwed this up is in your mirror]. He even stopped smoking weed to check if it was just his high clouding his judgment ("Dejé de fumar para ver si era la nota" [I stopped smoking to see if it was the high]), but nope, things were already wrecked. Now, he tells her "buen provecho" [enjoy your meal] if she goes out with someone new, because he is already on vacation moving on himself.
