Years pass and by your side
Those who love you
Whether you want it or not
And we look at each other, we look at each other
And we love each other, we love each other
And we love each other, we love each other
That your life slips away in the little things and in the nonsense
That your time runs out doing the things that you didn't want
Your life slips away and you don't realize
And little by little you're dying of sorrow
Don't you contradict me
You can't deny it
First: family, health and freedom
As the gypsies sing, you can't deny it
Don't you contradict me
You can't deny it
First: family, health and freedom
As the gypsies sing, you can't deny it
Today I come to tell you
That flamenco is our worldwide culture
And those who say that it's not true
The first in line to dance
And that's the truth
That your life slips away in the little things and in the nonsense
That your time runs out doing the things that you didn't want
Your life slips away and you don't realize
And little by little you're dying of sorrow
Don't you contradict me
You can't deny it
First: family, health and freedom
As the gypsies sing, you can't deny it
Don't you contradict me
You can't deny it
First: family, health and freedom
As Sergio Ramos sings, you can't deny it
Oh-mai-oh-mai, mai-oh-mai
How much I love my family
They're first
We love the ones who already left so much
Toast to them
How much I love my family
They're first
Oh-mai-oh-mai, mai-oh-mai
Don't you contradict me
You can't deny it
First: family, health and freedom
As the gypsies sing, you can't deny it
Don't you contradict me
You can't deny it
First: family, health and freedom
As Sergio Ramos sings, you can't deny it

SONG MEANING

Feel the pulse of flamenco rumba! In “NO ME CONTRADIGAS,” Los Yakis team up with football legend Sergio Ramos to remind us that life races by while we fuss over trivial things. The singers lock eyes with loved ones, reaffirming affection again and again, then throw down a playful challenge: Don’t contradict me! Their point is crystal clear—time is precious, so ditch regrets and dance while you can.

The chorus hammers home three non-negotiables:

  • Family
  • Health
  • Freedom

Everything else is small change. Between joyful shouts of oh-mai-oh-mai and a toast to relatives who have passed, the song celebrates flamenco as a global treasure that even skeptics end up dancing to. It is a lively wake-up call to love fiercely, live boldly and keep the rhythm of gratitude beating every single day.
