Devuélveme El Corazón Lyrics in English by Nanpa Básico, Pirlo
Balazo literally translates to "bullet shot" or "gunshot". It's a strong and dramatic word that immediately grabs attention.
In the song, the artist uses it to express extreme disdain for a past relationship, stating, "Para estar en tus brazos, mi amor, prefiero un balazo" (To be in your arms, my love, I prefer a bullet shot). This hyperbolic statement powerfully conveys the depth of his regret and his desire to avoid his former lover at all costs, making it a memorable and impactful word choice.
Nanpa Básico and Pirlo 420 build the whole song around one demand: "Puta, devuélveme el corazón" ["Bitch, give me my heart back"]. It never asks for closure — the line repeats until it sounds less like heartbreak and more like a debt he thinks she owes him. Between choruses he swings from wounded to smug, bragging that he already slept with her friend ("Me llevé a tu amiguita, fue un placer" ["I took your friend, it was a pleasure"]) while circling back to the same accusation, that she's "mentirosa, doble y manipuladora" ["a liar, two-faced and manipulative"]. By the second verse the bravado tips into something darker: he'd rather take a bullet than go back to her, "mi amor, prefiero un balazo" ["my love, I'd rather take a bullet"] — the kind of overplayed wounded pride trap and reggaeton breakup tracks run on.
