Verse 1
While my mind travels to where you are
My father shouts again
That I'm wasting my future and his peace
With my way of being
Although I hear him, I'm already far from here
I close my eyes and I'm already thinking of you
Chorus 1
And I’m a rebel
When I don't follow others
And I’m a rebel
When I love you like crazy
And I’m a rebel
When I don't think the same as yesterday
And I’m a rebel
When I put even my own skin on the line
Yes I'm a rebel
It's just that maybe
Nobody knows me well
Verse 2
One of these days I'm going to run away
To risk everything for a dream
Everything in life is win or lose
You have to bet, you have to bet without fear
It doesn't matter much what they say about me
I close my eyes and I'm already thinking of you
Chorus 2
And I’m a rebel
When I don't follow others
And I’m a rebel
When I love you like crazy
And I’m a rebel
When I don't think the same as yesterday
And I’m a rebel
When I put even my own skin on the line
Bridge
Yes I'm a rebel
It's just that maybe
It doesn't matter much what they say about me
I close my eyes and I'm already thinking of you
Chorus 3
And I’m a rebel
When I don't follow others
And I’m a rebel
When I love you like crazy
And I’m a rebel
When I don't think the same as yesterday
And I’m a rebel
When I put even my own skin on the line
And I’m a rebel
When I don't follow others
And I’m a rebel
When I love you like crazy
And I’m a rebel
When I don't think the same as yesterday
And I’m a rebel
When I put even my own skin on the line
And I’m a rebel

SONG MEANING

Rebelde is a high-energy pop anthem that raises the volume on teenage freedom and first love. The singer’s father scolds her for “wasting” her future, yet her thoughts immediately drift to the person she adores. Each shout of “Y soy rebelde” becomes a bold declaration that she will not follow the crowd. Instead of letting rules define her, she closes her eyes, thinks of her crush, and lets her imagination carry her far from home.

The song’s central message is simple: daring to live your own truth is worth any risk. Whether the outcome is a win or a loss, you must “bet without fear.” Love, dreams, and self-expression all demand courage, and the narrator is willing to stake everything—“hasta la piel,” down to the skin—to protect them. “Rebelde” invites listeners to embrace their unique voice, push past criticism, and chase big dreams with unbreakable passion.
