Permiso Lyrics in English by Yami Safdie
Caprichos translates to "whims" or "cravings." It refers to sudden, often unreasonable desires or impulses.
In the song, Yami Safdie sings, "No estoy para caprichos" (I'm not in the mood for whims). She uses this word to firmly tell an ex-lover that she's not interested in his fickle desires or games, highlighting her independence and resolve.
Yami Safdie's "Permiso" is a super fun and empowering anthem about moving on from a past relationship! Our singer is out at the club, having a great time, when her ex calls. She knows exactly why he's calling: "Ya sé porque me llamaste / Se ve que te enteraste / Y verme con otro te arde" [I already know why you called / It seems you found out / And seeing me with another burns you]. He's clearly upset she's with someone else, but she's not having it. She tells him straight up, "Me encantaría quedarme / Pero se me hace tarde" [I'd love to stay / But it's getting late], before dropping the mic with "Así que permiso / Que me esperan en la disco" [So, excuse me / They're waiting for me at the club].
She's totally over him and reminds him, "No me andes llorando / Si estoy bailando con otro tipo" [Don't come crying to me / If I'm dancing with another guy]. The lyrics really hit home when she says, "Quiere porque no se puede / Y cuando pudo no quiso" [He wants to because he can't / And when he could, he didn't want to]. It's a classic case of wanting what you can't have! She's found herself again, declaring, "Me perdí, pero ya me encontré" [I got lost, but I already found myself]. This song is all about reclaiming your power and enjoying your freedom after a breakup. So, turn it up and dance your heart out!
