FRESA Lyrics in English by Victor Muñoz, Victor Drija, David Maman
Fresa literally means "strawberry" in Spanish. However, in Mexican slang, it's also used to describe someone who is preppy, snobby, or privileged, often associated with a certain social class.
In this song, the artist uses "fresa" to describe a person who might seem a bit superficial or only interested in certain things, playing on the double meaning of the word. It's an interesting word choice because it highlights a cultural nuance that goes beyond its literal translation.
This song is a super fun, flirty track where the singer is completely smitten! He admits he was born into a tough life ("él nació duras" [he was born hard]), but now he's totally in love with every part of this person ("a cada parte de mí está en amores" [every part of me is in love]). He's so into them that he feels like he's always on their mind, even if they don't realize it yet: "todo el tiempo estoy en tu cabeza" [all the time I'm in your head].
He jokes about not having a lot of money ("plata no es lo que llevo entre las manos" [money is not what I carry in my hands]), and even makes a funny, slightly cheesy line about being a carnivore but their "corazón mexicano" [Mexican heart] winning him over, making him want to eat only plants and grains! He's so confident they'll end up together, he's already picturing them as old folks, arguing but still together: "vamos a estar juntitos de ancianos" [we're going to be together as old people]. He's basically saying, "I know I'm not right for you, but I'm so devoted, and no one else kisses you like I do, so I'm always on your mind!" It's a playful declaration of love and obsession.
