Parce (feat. Lenny Tavárez y Justin Quiles)

Maluma's song 'Parce,' featuring Lenny Tavárez and Justin Quiles, delves into the emotional aftermath of a tumultuous relationship. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of betrayal and heartbreak, with Maluma expressing his pain and disappointment. He compares the person who hurt him to the earth, suggesting that just as the earth can be grounding, it can also bring you down. The imagery of dried roses symbolizes the withering of love and the transformation of his once bright and hopeful world into a gray, desolate place.

The chorus, 'Gózala, que la vida es una mami, gózala,' serves as a mantra for moving on and enjoying life despite the pain. It reflects a resilient attitude, encouraging both himself and the listener to embrace life's ups and downs. The repetition of 'Ojalá y no llegues a mi puerta porque no te abriré' underscores his resolve to not let the past hurt him again, emphasizing his determination to protect himself from further emotional harm.

The song also touches on themes of self-worth and empowerment. Maluma acknowledges the deceit and manipulation he experienced, referring to the person as 'medio actriz' and 'astuta,' highlighting their cunning nature. Despite the hurt, he finds solace in the idea of moving forward and finding someone who truly values and loves him. The upbeat tempo and catchy rhythm juxtapose the somber lyrics, creating a dynamic and relatable anthem for anyone who has experienced a similar emotional journey.
