María thought that love
was a commandment of two
And waiting for the first kiss
she grows old before the mirror
And wipes her tears
She makes up her wounds
And life slips away from her
She remembers the first time
that he swore to her it was unintended
And in the kids who lived
prisoners of their fear
María dreamed of being the princess
with golden hair
and strawberry lips
María left one morning
María without saying anything
María isn't afraid anymore
María starts over
María, I need you
María escaped from his shout
María drinks the streets
María
She never says no
She is the slave of her lord
She always forgives him
At his feet on the canvas
Her homeland is her house
Her world the kitchen
And it falls upon her
One day she left her heart
abandoned on her mattress
She only thinks of seeing his body
Oh! from the fifth commandment
María has no color in her blood
María fades and nobody knows it
María left one morning
María without saying anything
María isn't afraid anymore
María starts over
María, I need you
María escaped from his screams
María drinks the streets
María left one morning
María without saying anything
María isn't afraid anymore
María starts over
María, I need you
María escaped from his screams
María drinks the streets
María
María thought that love
was a commandment of two

SONG MEANING

María Se Bebe Las Calles follows a woman who once mistook submission for love, patching up her bruises in silence while dreaming of fairy-tale kisses. Pasión Vega paints the kitchen as María’s tiny kingdom, ruled by fear and broken promises. Each line lets us feel the weight of her routine, the hush around her children, and the heartbreak of forgiving the unforgivable.

But one morning María trades her apron for courage. “Se bebe las calles” – she drinks the streets – means she gulps down freedom like a thirst-quenching sip, stepping outside with no goodbye and no more fear. The song flips from sorrow to celebration, turning María’s escape into an anthem of second chances. It reminds us that even after years of darkness, there is always a dawn waiting if we dare to start again.
