Las Cartas (feat. Maikol El Insoportable)

In 'Las Cartas,' Luister La Voz, featuring Maikol El Insoportable, delves into the emotional turmoil of a breakup. The song begins with the protagonist lamenting the absence of their partner since Monday, highlighting the seriousness with which the partner took the idea of taking a break. This sets the stage for a narrative filled with feelings of betrayal and the struggle to move on. The protagonist pleads for respect for their relationship, indicating a deep sense of hurt and disappointment.

The lyrics reveal the protagonist's realization that their partner's arrogance and unreliability have made them unworthy of the relationship. The metaphor of the partner showing their 'cards' suggests that their true nature has been revealed over time.
