Delirio de Grandeza paints a dramatic picture of a lover shattered by betrayal. The singer accuses his partner of trading love for gold and ambition, partying with friends while he languishes in agony. He calls her a “mujer sin corazón” (heartless woman) and describes himself as a martyr driven mad by love. Yet even in his deepest hurt, he clings to the belief that time will serve justice and she will eventually return in search of genuine affection.
ROSÁLÍA injects this classic tale of wounded pride with her own playful twist. The vintage bolero verses collide with the hypnotic, English-sample refrain “Man, it’s ridiculous, I got you so delirious” to mirror the push-and-pull of obsession: anguish on one side, irresistible attraction on the other. The result is a song that feels both nostalgic and fiercely modern, capturing how pride, greed, and longing can all blur together when love turns into a fever dream.
