I know why you called me

It looks like you found out

And seeing me with someone else burns you

You're going to have to excuse me

I would love to stay

But I'm late

So permission

What's waiting for me at the disco?

Don't cry to me

If I'm dancing with another guy

So permission

I'm not up for whims

Want because you can't

And when he could he didn't want to

Ba-baby, excuse me

He doesn't remember what he did to me

Oh, what a forgetful guy

My heart dragged him across the floor

He has already sinned and now there is no paradise

Always the same with him

There's no point going back

You're late, I'm already over you

I got lost, but I found myself

I don't have time to chat

I have a tight agenda

But the oversized outfit

To let go more

Please stop calling now

That the disco is exploding'

And I don't want to listen to you

So permission

What's waiting for me at the disco?

Don't cry to me

If I'm dancing with another guy

So permission

I'm not up for whims

Want because you can't

And when he could he didn't want to

So permission

What's waiting for me at the disco?

Don't cry to me

If I'm dancing with another guy

So permission

I'm not up for whims

Want because you can't

And when he could he didn't want to

Yami

Yami Safdie's "Permiso" is a super fun and empowering anthem about moving on from a past relationship! Our singer is out at the club, having a great time, when her ex calls. She knows exactly why he's calling: "Ya sé porque me llamaste / Se ve que te enteraste / Y verme con otro te arde" [I already know why you called / It seems you found out / And seeing me with another burns you]. He's clearly upset she's with someone else, but she's not having it. She tells him straight up, "Me encantaría quedarme / Pero se me hace tarde" [I'd love to stay / But it's getting late], before dropping the mic with "Así que permiso / Que me esperan en la disco" [So, excuse me / They're waiting for me at the club].

She's totally over him and reminds him, "No me andes llorando / Si estoy bailando con otro tipo" [Don't come crying to me / If I'm dancing with another guy]. The lyrics really hit home when she says, "Quiere porque no se puede / Y cuando pudo no quiso" [He wants to because he can't / And when he could, he didn't want to]. It's a classic case of wanting what you can't have! She's found herself again, declaring, "Me perdí, pero ya me encontré" [I got lost, but I already found myself]. This song is all about reclaiming your power and enjoying your freedom after a breakup. So, turn it up and dance your heart out!
