I learned that most of the time

Things aren't what they seem

That we're a species that specializes in lying

So we can build a future with lies

Count how many times we make disappear

With just one phrase what we wouldn't want to lose

Life slips away from us, we keep letting it run

The train with the love that only passes once

I learned not to laugh at anyone with arrogance

Because I don't know what my circumstances will be

It's just an ego thing

The clothes I look best in are those of the soul

I learned that calm is a good adviser

When it's time to make sure decisions

That I'm not the smartest

But with an opportunist I must be a beast

And I know that one can mess up

Like a normal human being

That it's really valuable that they forgive you

But even more to forgive

That you can't trample on your word

Trample on morality

That love isn't enough when respect doesn't reach

It's like plowing in the sea

I'm not better than anybody, nobody's better than me

Even though I don't get how everyone wants to look alike

How people clone themselves, lose their own voice

And they don't know where to walk when they get up

I learned that wanting to know everything that they think about me

That's my threat

It's opening the door to envy

Saying, 'How are you, ma'am? Come in, it's your house'

That things happen

But mistakes weigh

Because later they drag

Because later they crush you like chains of the soul

I know as I know

You miss a brother when you need him

I know that sometimes

The one who suffers most is the one who loves you most

I know that I'll have

Another dawn where I don't even have a pillow

I've already understood

That life is beautiful but it's not a fairy tale

I know that one can mess up

Like a normal human being

That it's really valuable that they forgive you

But even more to forgive

That you can't trample on your word

Trample on morality

That love isn't enough when respect doesn't reach

It's like plowing in the sea

SONG MEANING

Yo Aprendí is Karol G’s open diary, a rhythmic confession where the Colombian superstar and Cuban wordsmith Danay Suárez trade beats for life lessons. Over a smooth, almost meditative groove, they tear away society’s masks and remind us that truth, humility, and respect outshine any flashy outfit. The lyrics stroll through everyday contradictions: how we polish lies to build the future, ride past love’s one-time train, and let envy walk right through the door when we worry about what others think.

By listing what she has learned, Karol paints a checklist for real-world wisdom: stay calm before big choices, be fierce with opportunists, forgive and ask forgiveness, never trample your own word, and remember that love without respect is like “plowing the sea.” The song feels both intimate and universal, nudging listeners to keep their souls well-dressed, accept human mistakes, and cherish the beauty of life even when it is no fairy tale.
