“RELOJ” spins the tale of a heartbreak so intense that time itself seems to freeze. Peso Pluma and Iván Cornejo paint a picture of late-night scrolling through old messages, half-smiling at memories, yet feeling a clock that stubbornly refuses to move forward. Behind the upbeat Regional Mexican sound, the lyrics reveal a tug-of-war between wanting to party away the pain and being pulled back into the still-fresh wound of lost love. The singer tries everything: deleting contacts, surrounding himself with friends, even convincing himself he is “tranqui,” but the tick-tock of healing remains stubbornly silent.
The song captures that familiar moment when you realize a relationship was more illusion than reality. Lines about “una aventura para ti” versus “unos tragos amargos” for him highlight how two people can exit the same story with very different souvenirs. “RELOJ” is ultimately a bittersweet reminder that moving on is rarely linear; sometimes the party lights fade, the phone screen dims, and you are left counting minutes that refuse to pass.
