When I couldn't take care of myself alone

You took care of me

You erased the cold

You killed the hunger

Without expecting rewards or favorable results

Your commitment

Is unmatched

Giving me food and shelter

Weaving love in my chest

No 'I Love You' from the street

Is more sincere than your deeds

You don't resemble anybody

Your advice is the air

That I breathe when the path is narrow

And it doesn't matter that we're far apart

Nor with uneven schedules

I know that everything I feel

You feel it too

I don't want to wait for you to be in heaven

To tell you how much I love you

And that nobody would've done this better than you

You took me in your arms

You saw me take my first step

And even though my steps keep getting bigger

For you, I'm the same little one as before

Voice that cures everything

A soul so pure

There's a bond between my soul and yours

Blessing that serves me as armor

Love with madness

Lasts forever

And it doesn't matter that we're far apart

Nor with uneven schedules

I know that everything I feel

You feel it too

I don't want to wait for you to be in heaven

To tell you how much I love you

And that nobody would've done this better than you

SONG MEANING

Mejor Que Tú is Jay Wheeler’s heartfelt thank-you note to the first person who ever believed in him: his mother. Swapping out romantic longing for pure gratitude, he recalls how she fed him, sheltered him, warmed him, and guided him with advice that feels like the very air he breathes. Her love is portrayed as both armor and compass, a force so generous that no "I love you" from the outside world can compete.

The chorus drives home the song’s mission: Wheeler refuses to wait until she is "in heaven" to tell her how much she means to him, because nobody could have done it better. Wrapped in smooth Puerto Rican pop-urban rhythms, the track turns maternal devotion into a sing-along reminder to honor the people who raised us—no matter the miles, schedules, or years that separate us. It’s an invitation to pick up the phone, say te quiero, and dance while you do it.
