Verse 1

Before you say anything, your eyes already confirm everything to me

It's true what they tell me, and it's too late to deny it

I used to protect myself from people like you, but in the end, oh well

I'm human and I have many more flaws than you know

You made fun of me and I know you did it gladly

You're an expert at that, aim, your hand never shakes

When you pack your bags, don't forget to take your pride

You're going to need it for when you want to come back

Chorus 1

You're no longer welcome here

If your love was a lie, leave and be happy

Don't worry about me

Because I'm going to be better off without you

Go on, go, tell the people that I screwed you over

So that you don't look bad here

And it's clear that you lost me when you lost me

And I lost when I met you

Postchorus 1

Back in the game

I'm going to lock down all the single girls out there

Back in the game

I'm going to pick up even the ones playing dead

Back in the game

Trap, little trap, it's been uncovered

Back in the game

You had the key, but I broke down your door

Verse 2

Blame me for your pain

The role of victim always has defenders

They adore the one who lies

They hang the one who tells the truth

Congratulations, you won yourself an Oscar

God, light my path away from your ways

For you every day is October 31st

Always with the mask on

If one falls off, you have another one ready

Eyes that don't see, heart of what?

Even if I didn't see you, you still throw shade, I know your game

I thought you were perfect, now I can recognize

That your only flaw was being born

Chorus 2

You're no longer welcome here

If your love was a lie, leave and be happy

Don't worry about me

Because I'm going to be better off without you

Go on and go, tell the people that I screwed you over

So that you don't look bad here

It's clear that you lost me when you lost me

And I lost when I met you

Back in the game

You're not welcome, not welcome here

Postchorus 2

Back in the game

Go on your way and get lost

Back in the game

Come on, tell the people that I screwed you over

Back in the game

But no, but no, but no, but no, but no, but no, but no

But no, but no, but no, but no, but I wasn't the one who lost here

This is for the history books

From here to the world, come on

You're no longer welcome here

Get out of the way, the kings are passing, kings, kings

You're no longer welcome here

Kiss the ring, it's the whole package, ring, ring, ring

You're no longer welcome here

Barrio Obrero city, for all the pretty girls

You're no longer welcome here

They call us 'the Clementes' because we've got that swing

De vuelta pa' la vuelta — Back at it again / Tit for tat

De vuelta pa' la vuelta is a powerful colloquial phrase and the title of this hit song. It's a clever play on words with a double meaning: "getting back to my old ways" and also "tit for tat".

In this track, Daddy Yankee uses the phrase to announce he's over his unfaithful ex. He's going "back" (de vuelta) to his single, player lifestyle, while also returning the favor (pa' la vuelta) of her betrayal. This phrase perfectly captures the song's theme of swagger and getting even.

De Vuelta Pa' La Vuelta (literally Back Around the Block) is a high-energy goodbye letter to a two-faced lover. From the very first lines Daddy Yankee spots the truth in her eyes, calls out her Oscar-worthy lies, and tells her to pack her pride because she is no longer welcome. The verses fire off witty jabs and vivid images: masks that never fall, Halloween every day, a key that no longer fits. They show a man who has finally accepted the betrayal and is ready to shut the door for good.

The chorus flips the pain into empowerment. De vuelta pa' la vuelta becomes a rallying cry: he is back on the scene, ready to dance, flirt, and live it up without her. Marc Anthony’s soaring salsa hooks blend with Daddy Yankee’s urban swagger to turn heartbreak into a celebration of self-worth. The message is clear: expose the lie, reclaim your joy, and hit the dance floor with your head held high.
