A Veces (feat. Arcangel)

Corina Smith's song 'A Veces' featuring Arcangel is a poignant exploration of the complexities of love, infidelity, and self-respect. The song begins with a phone call, setting the tone for a personal and intimate conversation. The lyrics reveal a story of a love affair where one partner is already committed to someone else. The protagonist expresses the pain of being involved with someone who cannot fully commit to them, highlighting the emotional toll of being in such a relationship.

The song's chorus, 'Yo no estoy pa' que me quieran a vece',' which translates to 'I'm not here to be loved sometimes,' serves as a powerful statement of self-worth. It reflects the realization that being someone's second choice or a part-time lover is not acceptable. The protagonist is asserting their need for a full and consistent love, rather than one that is sporadic and conditional. This sentiment is further emphasized by the verses where the other person is advised to find someone who can give them the time and attention they deserve.

Arcangel's verse adds another layer to the narrative, providing the perspective of the person who is cheating. He acknowledges the situation's complexity and the hurt caused but also points out that the protagonist was aware of the circumstances from the beginning. The song ends with a sense of closure and empowerment, as the protagonist decides to move on from the relationship, blocking the other person's number and affirming their decision to no longer accept being loved 'sometimes.' The song resonates with anyone who has experienced the pain of unrequited love or the struggle to maintain self-respect in the face of an unequal relationship.
