¡Corre! Lyrics in English by Ivan Cornejo

Libreto literally translates to "script", like the one used for a play or movie. It's a fantastic word that isn't commonly found in song lyrics.

In "¡Corre!", Ivan Cornejo uses it metaphorically to describe a relationship that has become painfully predictable. He sings, "Libreto de siempre, tan predecible" (The same old script, so predictable), suggesting that their conversations and arguments are like a scene they've acted out many times before. This creative use paints a vivid picture of a love that has lost its spontaneity.

Ever been in an argument that feels like you've had it a million times before? That's the feeling at the heart of Ivan Cornejo's "¡Corre!". The singer is completely fed up with a partner who is cold and distant. He sings, "Me abrazas y no siento tu calor" (You hug me and I don't feel your warmth), and points out how they always interrupt and act like they know everything: "Siempre tienes la razón" (You're always right). He sees their behavior as a predictable script, "Libreto de siempre, tan predecible" (The same old script, so predictable), and he's decided he's not playing along anymore.

So what does he do? He tells them to leave. The chorus is a powerful and direct command: "Así que corre, corre, corre, corazón" (So run, run, run, my heart). He's telling his partner to do what they've always done when things get tough. He's not just sad about it; he's defiant, refusing to cry and claiming "la verdad, me da igual" (the truth is, I don't care). He's been through this breakup scene before and is finally drawing a line, saying it won't happen again "Conmigo, no" (Not with me). It's a song about recognizing a toxic pattern and finding the strength to end it for good.
