Porque Yo Lyrics in English Safree

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Porque Yo by Safree from Spanish to English.
I know that I'm wrong
That I don't deserve your help
And not even forgiveness
I know that I'm the worst
That I'm to blame
And that's why I prefer goodbye
And the pain of my soul
That has turned into the ruin of the love
That we had and that routine left us
And this thorn that you keep with resentment
And throw back at me is the same one
That lies down with us in the bed
And now tell me
Who's going to pay for the damage that we've done
Who's going to repair my heart
Who's going to close my chest
Because I'm staying where I am
Don't you ever come
You've already hurt me so much
And it cost me so much to forget
And I don't want to be anymore
A reflection of your yesterday
I'm leaving the way I came
And now live knowing
That I value deeds more
Than words that aren't going to change anything that I think
How many times you had me in front of you
And you lied to me, tell me
If you've even killed my time
And you don't consider it a crime
How many times you smudged
The mascara from my lashes
Being by your side every day
And feeling like a stranger
How many nights in Spain
And days abroad
How many holes in the pants
And in the hat
Because I'm staying where I am
Don't you ever come
You've already hurt me so much
And it cost me so much to forget
And I don't want to be a reflection of your yesterday anymore
I'm leaving the way I came
And the I love yous I want to believe them
Sometimes I can't move on because I live in yesterday
Now I'm the one who shares your future and your skin
I'm a human on Mars who doesn't want to come back, no, no
And the I love yous I want to believe them
Sometimes I can't move on because I live in yesterday
Now I'm the one who shares your future and your skin
I'm a human on Mars who doesn't want to come back
Because I'm staying where I am
Don't you ever come
You've already hurt me so much
And it cost me so much to forget
And I don't want to be a reflection of your yesterday anymore
I'm leaving the way I came

SONG MEANING

Porque Yo feels like reading a breakup diary written with a high-lighter pen. Safree’s narrator openly admits: “I messed up, I don’t deserve your help or forgiveness.” Yet that confession is only the starting point. The real story is about reclaiming self-worth. Tired of recycled “te quieros” and half-truths, she decides to slam the emotional door: “I’m staying right where I am; don’t come back.” The song scrolls through snapshots of mascara-stained nights, long-distance days, and worn-out jeans, all showing how love eroded into routine and resentment.

Rather than wallowing, the chorus turns into a rallying cry for independence. Safree tells us that actions speak louder than words, and that sometimes the bravest move is walking away before the hurt rewinds. By the final verse, the narrator compares herself to “a human on Mars” who no longer wants to return—an out-of-this-world metaphor for a fresh, solitary beginning. In short, “Porque Yo” turns heartbreak into a bold anthem of accountability, self-respect, and the freedom that comes with saying adiós for good.
