Costumbres Lyrics in English by Natalia Jiménez

Rencor translates to "resentment" or "grudge." It's a strong emotional word that goes beyond simple anger, implying a deep-seated bitterness.

In the song, Natalia Jiménez sings, "Aunque ya no sientas más amor por mí, sólo rencor" (Even if you no longer feel love for me, only resentment). This word is particularly impactful because it highlights the painful reality that love can transform into something much darker, making it a powerful and memorable choice for the lyrics.

Have you ever been in a relationship that you know isn't good for you, but you just can't seem to let go? Natalia Jiménez's "Costumbres" [Customs/Habits] perfectly describes that feeling. It's all about a love that's faded, replaced by something much more complicated: habit.

She sings, "Aunque ya no sientas más amor por mí, sólo rencor" [Even if you no longer feel love for me, only resentment], and admits, "Yo tampoco tengo nada que sentir y eso es peor" [I don't have anything to feel either, and that's worse]. Despite this lack of love, she's convinced the other person can't forget her, singing, "Siempre volverás, una y otra vez" [You will always come back, again and again]. The core of the song is in the powerful line, "No cabe duda que es verdad que la costumbre es más fuerte que el amor" [There's no doubt it's true that habit is stronger than love]. It's a blunt, honest look at how difficult it can be to break free from someone, even when the love is long gone.
