Verse 1
You and I were connected and the signal dropped
Yesterday I had one percent left but it's already gone
I don't have time for you anymore, I even changed my watch
Tell me, what happened to us?
Chorus 1
And now without you I'm doing better, I don't have stress anymore
The four letters of love I changed them for three
Don't call me baby anymore
Because of you this went to shit
ALV is a shortened curse phrase: 'A La V*rga' = 'F**k it' / 'Damn!,' / 'Oh Sh*t!'
And now without you I'm doing better, I don't have stress anymore
The four letters of love I changed them for three
Don't call me baby anymore
Because of you this went to shit
Verse 2
Because of you, I stopped making bad decisions
You're not going to play with my emotions
I wasted plan a, plan b, plan c
Or: I used up plan A, plan B, plan C
And I got tired of your lies
Don't call me anymore
Because now you'll get what you give me
I said to-hell-with-it because something nice will come
Or: I said f* it because something nice will come
That's why you'll see me with someone else, although in truth
I wanted a future with you, only you
You left fast like a sports car
Now in the club I throw my cash
And for Cupid, I have a gun
In Mexico, the AK-47 assault rifle is nicknamed the 'goat horn' (cuerno de chivo)
Baby, since you let me go
Tequila and a joint served as a rescue
And if you want to fall in love again
Don't count on me, but let me tell you
Chorus 2
That now without you I'm doing better, I don't have stress anymore
The four letters of love I changed them for three
Don't call me baby anymore
Because of you this went to shit
This is Grupo Frontera!
Austin, baby, yeah, Arcángel 'La Maravilla' (The Wonder)
Chorus 3
And now without you I'm doing better, I don't have stress anymore
The four letters of love I changed them for three
Don't call me baby anymore
Because of you this went to shit
Chorus 4
And now without you I'm doing better, I don't have stress anymore
The four letters of love I changed them for three
Don't call me baby anymore
Because of you this went to shit

SONG MEANING

Ever sent a last text when your phone was at 1 %? ALV begins right there. Arcángel and Grupo Frontera picture a couple whose signal suddenly drops; the love battery is empty. The narrator looks back at promises, missed calls, and lies, realizing he has burned through every backup plan. The once-sweet nickname 'bebé' no longer melts his heart; it only reminds him of the moment the relationship short-circuited.

Instead of drowning in sorrow, he flips the script. The four letters of 'LOVE' are swapped for the three letters 'ALV', Spanish slang for 'to hell with it'. With tequila in hand and music blasting, he announces a stress-free comeback, ready to spend his cash on the dance floor and keep Cupid at arm's length. This lively Regional Mexican–Puerto Rican fusion becomes a breakup anthem that celebrates self-respect, fresh starts, and the turbocharged freedom that comes from shouting 'ALV' and moving on.
