Realize, ma'

That guy drops everything next door, you leave him

I imagine when he opens his eyes and doesn't see you

He goes to the networks to check and the photo that you post is with me

So that he can see how he should treat you

Realize, ma'

That guy drops everything next door, you leave him

I imagine when he opens his eyes and doesn't see you

He goes to the networks to check and the photo that you post is with me

So that he can see how he should treat you

Realize, ma'

That no one is perfect and there are different dialects

That the world is round, not flat

And there are different races and many people

On the other hand, you are from Mars

And I from Jupiter, a separate case

Let Picasso and Da Vinci suffer

And with your body you surpassed art

And I don't know why he doesn't value you

He doesn't hold you at night, he doesn't make you warm

Get out of it if nothing gets better over time

For me you are holy water, my canteen

You are crazy and demented and that makes me fall in love

The main focus of my locomotive

Drop it if it doesn't improve over time

And escape with me, come, I invite you to Bora Bora

Realize, ma'

That guy drops everything next door, you leave him

I imagine when he opens his eyes and doesn't see you

He goes to the networks to check and the photo that you post is with me

So that he can see how he should treat you

And I have told you, cool mom, a couple of times

That what you deserve is a fine guy like me

But since I no longer appear

Meanwhile, get out of that one in which I appear, I'

I know that every day you fight because he doesn't listen to you

That's why you call me, because I understand you

That's why I cry every time you cry

Because I do love you and it hurts me when you are suffering

Realize, ma'

That guy drops everything next door, you leave him

I imagine when he opens his eyes and doesn't see you

He goes to the networks to check and the photo that you post is with me

So that he can see how he should treat you

If I were him, I would give you a band and let you go

Here, in my opinion, things are going to be expensive

Austin, baby

and we have the light

It's Light GM

Did you like this lyrics translation?

In "Date Cuenta" (Wake Up / Realise It) Arcángel is the guy waiting in the wings while the woman he wants stays with someone who ignores her. The chorus is a little revenge fantasy: "Me imagino cuando abra los ojos y no te vea" (I imagine when he opens his eyes and doesn't see you), and he goes online to check, only to find "conmigo la foto que tú postea'" (the photo you post is with me). The dropped "s" in postea' and to' (todo) is pure Puerto Rican speech, so get used to hearing word endings swallowed.

The verse is where he gets playful. He tells her "tú eres de Marte y yo de Júpiter" (you're from Mars and I'm from Jupiter), says her body beats the art of Picasso and Da Vinci, and calls her "agua bendita, mi cantimplora" (holy water, my canteen), which is a funny line to put in a love song. Then he invites her to escape to Bora Bora. Under the jokes he's serious: "Yo sé que a diario tú lucha' porque él no te escucha" (I know you struggle every day because he doesn't listen to you). It's a good song for practising the subjunctive after cuando and si yo fuera.
