Causa Y Efecto Lyrics in English Paulina Rubio

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Causa Y Efecto by Paulina Rubio from Spanish to English.
You want to rule my heart
My silence and my breathing
You think that not even in dreams I'll manage to live without you
I'm warning you, it doesn't work like that
You lie and think that you're so special
You dream that you turn me into glass
Run faster, kilometers away from here
Today it's my turn to say goodbye
You know that even though you thought you were perfect
By the law of cause and effect
Today you pay for every mistake
Look, that my love turns you on
And cools you off
Like an illusion that spies on you
And tangles you up for fun
Change your strategy, please
Because I don't get along with pain
I believe in the energy that moves in a spiral
And living at war harms me
You know that even though you thought you were perfect
By the law of cause and effect
Today you pay for every mistake
Look, that my love turns you on
And cools you off
Like an illusion that spies on you
And tangles you up for fun
In this duel of skin against skin
Luck spun and it's your turn to lose
That even though you thought you were perfect
By the law of cause and effect
Today you pay for every mistake
Look, that my love turns you on
And cools you off
Like an illusion that spies on you
And tangles you up for fun
You know that even though you thought you were perfect
By the law of cause and effect
Today you pay, today you pay
For every mistake

SONG MEANING

Paulina Rubio’s “Causa Y Efecto” is a fiery pop anthem about karma in love. The singer faces a controlling partner who once believed she could never live without him. Instead of surrendering, she flips the script: she walks away, reminding him that every lie and selfish move has consequences. Her voice bursts with confidence as she claims her freedom, warning that her love can both ignite and freeze him like an unpredictable spark.

The title translates to “Cause and Effect,” and that idea powers the whole song. Paulina trusts in a cosmic balance where energy spirals back to its source, so the pain he caused now returns to him. She refuses to live “in war,” chooses self-respect over drama, and shows learners a vivid lesson in standing up to toxic behavior. With catchy rhythms and bold lyrics, the track celebrates independence, resilience, and the universal rule that every action has its price.
