Get ready to dive into a wave of tropical passion! In “Awita,” Puerto Rican superstar Nicky Jam teams up with French-Afro producer 4Rain to paint a steamy picture of love that is equal parts sweet, wild, and addictive. The title is a playful twist on the Spanish word agüita (little water), which becomes a metaphor for the partner’s kiss ‑ something refreshing that can “cure” the singer’s longing. From missing each other so much it “kills,” to reminiscing about yesterday’s car escapade, every line bursts with desire, heat, and vivid imagery of sun-soaked beaches and late-night adventures.

Beneath the seductive vibe, the lyrics reveal vulnerability: this self-proclaimed “gánster” depends on his lover’s presence to stay balanced and promises to protect her “crystal heart.” Pop-culture winks like “loco como Kanye sin Kim” add playful humor, while the repeated call for her “Awita” keeps the chorus catchy and memorable. In short, the song is an unapologetic celebration of intense chemistry, tender devotion, and the irresistible pull to relive those perfect moments again and again.
