Por Dios Que No (feat. La Delio Valdez)

The song "Por Dios Que No" by Ke Personajes, featuring La Delio Valdez, is a poignant narrative of heartbreak and the resolve to move on from a love that was not reciprocated. The lyrics speak to the experience of someone who has been left by a partner, only for that partner to return after realizing their mistake. The repeated question, "
¿Qué te paso? Te fuiste riendo / Para que hoy / Regreses llorando," suggests a sense of disbelief and irony that the person who left in laughter is now returning in tears, having been mistreated or unappreciated by someone else.

The song delves into the pain of being mocked and deceived in love, as the lines "Quien se burlo / De tus sentimientos / Quien te engaño / No te amaba tanto" reflect. It's a realization that the person who hurt them never truly loved them. The lyrics also touch upon the theme of personal growth and learning from painful experiences, as indicated by "Ahora podrás valorar la vida / Y corregir, tu comportamiento." This suggests that the experience of being hurt can lead to self-reflection and a change in one's own behavior.

Despite the pain, the song's chorus is a firm declaration of self-respect and the decision not to return to a relationship that caused suffering. The protagonist expresses a strong resolve, stating "Una sola vez, perdono yo / Y aunque me ruegues de rodillas / Ya no, ya no, ya no / Por Dios que no." The repetition of "Ya no" and the phrase "Por Dios que no" emphasize the finality of this decision, even though there is still love and longing ("Así me esté muriendo por tu amor"). The inclusion of the phrase "Las manitos arriba" and the mention of La Delio Valdez adds a festive, danceable element to the song, which is characteristic of cumbia music, often used to express deep emotions in a lively and communal way.
