En Carne Viva Lyrics in English by ELENA ROSE, Scarlett Linares
Despiadado translates to "ruthless" or "merciless". It's a strong and evocative adjective that isn't heard in every pop song, making it stand out.
In "En Carne Viva", Elena Rose uses it to describe a hurtful gesture: "Con tu dedo despiadado" (With your ruthless finger). This powerful imagery conveys the emotional pain inflicted by a former lover, highlighting the intensity of her feelings and the depth of the betrayal. It's a word that truly captures the raw emotion of the song.
Get ready for some serious sass and a powerful message in Elena Rose's "En Carne Viva" featuring Scarlett Linares! This song is a fiery anthem of a woman who's had enough of a disrespectful ex-lover. She's not holding back, telling him, "¿Qué te has creido tú, que yo no valgo? Si tengo el corazón en carne viva" [What do you think, that I'm not worth anything? If my heart is in raw flesh].
She calls him a coward for wasting the best years of her life and dismisses him as a "machista insignificante" [insignificant chauvinist] who thinks he's a man for having many lovers. But here's the twist: she reveals that she's also had her share of lovers, stating, "Yo también he conocido lo bueno de los amantes" [I've also known the good side of lovers]. It's a blunt and brilliant way to turn the tables, reminding him that "Lo que es igual nunca es trampa" [What's equal is never a trick]. This song is all about reclaiming your power and telling a toxic ex to hit the road!
