DtMF

The song 'DtMF' by Bad Bunny is a deep reflection on lost time, memories, and missed opportunities. In the opening verse, he describes a sunset scene in San Juan, Puerto Rico, as a moment of appreciating life and the things that those who have left miss. The soft melody and nostalgic tone of the lyrics capture this feeling of longing and reflection on what is left behind: 'Otro sunset bonito que veo en San Juan / Disfrutando de todas esas cosas que extrañan los que se van.'

The song continues with Bad Bunny expressing regret for not capturing more special moments with photos, something he directly mentions by saying: 'Debí tirar más fotos de cuando te tuve / Debí darte más beso y abrazo las veces que pude.' This part reveals a sense of loss, where the artist regrets not making the most of the time with those around him, failing to capture precious moments and express more affection.

Furthermore, Bad Bunny reflects on friendships and personal bonds, wishing that the people close to him stay in his life, without drifting apart: 'Ojalá que los mío' nunca se muden.' This desire for stability and closeness is expanded when he talks about the support his friends offer, especially in vulnerable moments, as when he mentions: 'Y si hoy me emborracho, pues que me ayuden.' Here, he expresses the importance of having loyal and present friends who are by his side through both good and bad situations.

The song also pays homage to Puerto Rican culture, with references to dominoes, parties, and local music, and emphasizes the importance of living meaningful moments. The celebration of life and shared experiences with others is reflected in verses like: 'Ya Bernie tiene el nene y Jan, la nena / Ya no estamo' pa' la movie' y las cadena' / 'Tamos pa' las cosa' que valgan la pena.' Bad Bunny acknowledges that priorities change over time, and now he is more focused on the things that truly matter: human connections and moments that are worth it.

Finally, the song ends with a message of gratitude and love for his friends and family. He shares a sense of unity and celebration, saying: 'Gente, lo' quiero con cojone', los amo / Gracias por estar aquí, de verdad.' This gratitude reinforces the importance of personal relationships and the awareness that, while we are alive, we should make the most of every moment with the people we love.

Thus, 'DtMF' is a song about valuing the present, reflecting on the past, and the need to seize opportunities while we have time, in a setting of celebration for life, friendship, and culture. It is, in fact, with this message that Bad Bunny introduces his album DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS, starting with the following monologue: 'Photos are lived moments, memories of things that happened. I wasn't one to take photos around, or post stories, or any of that. I used to say it was better to live the moment. But when you reach this age, remembering isn't so easy. I should've taken more photos, lived more, loved more when I could. While we're alive, we should love as much as we can.'
