Colarte comes from the verb colar, which literally means 'to strain' or 'to filter'. However, in informal Spanish, colarse (the reflexive form) means 'to sneak in' or 'to slip in' somewhere without permission or unnoticed.
In the song, the lyrics ask, "¿Qué ganas con colarte siempre en cada canción?" (What do you gain by always sneaking into every song?). This vividly expresses how the memory or presence of the person keeps appearing in the singer's thoughts and emotions, even when they try to move on. It's an engaging and relatable way to describe an intrusive thought or memory.
Qué Ganas is Morat’s witty yet heartfelt confession of post-breakup confusion. The Colombian band paints the moment you run into an ex and instantly feel every lost second. The singer recalls how his life flipped when he first saw her, how her silent goodbye spoke louder than words, and how, despite betting everything on the relationship, it was not enough.
The chorus revolves around the burning question “¿Qué ganas?” (What do you gain?): what does she get from drifting back into his mind, sneaking into every song, and exposing his true feelings whenever he tries to lie about moving on? He lists all he loses—his head, sleep, reason, and voice—while she “steals” his heart over and over. The track captures that bittersweet tug-of-war where love feels like madness, blame is shared, and the ex remains an inescapable melody riding on the wind.
