Así No Se Hace

Piso 21's song 'Así No Se Hace' delves into the complexities of a non-traditional romantic relationship. The lyrics express a clear message about the singer's unique way of loving, which doesn't conform to conventional expectations. The repeated line 'Yo no te sé querer de otra manera' (I don't know how to love you any other way) highlights the singer's insistence on being true to himself, even if it means not meeting the partner's expectations. This sentiment is further emphasized by the line 'El jueguito te cansó, pero aún te quedas' (The game tired you, but you still stay), suggesting that despite the challenges, the partner finds the relationship worthwhile.

The chorus, 'Así no se hace, mi amor, así no se hace' (That's not how it's done, my love, that's not how it's done), serves as a reminder that the singer's way of loving is different. He rejects the idea of exclusivity and contracts, stating 'No doy exclusivas, ni tengo contratos' (I don't give exclusives, nor do I have contracts). This reflects a desire for freedom and independence within the relationship, as he repeatedly asks not to be tied down: 'A mí no me ates' (Don't tie me down). The singer values his autonomy and prefers to navigate love on his own terms, which is a central theme of the song.

The song also touches on the importance of honesty and clear communication. The lines 'Soy sincero si estamos muy bien / Un paso en falso y empiezo a correr' (I'm sincere if we're doing well / One false step and I start to run) indicate that the singer is straightforward about his feelings and boundaries. He warns that any misstep could lead him to withdraw, underscoring the fragile balance of their relationship. This candid approach is what he offers to his partner, as he states, 'Es todo lo que tengo para darte, mujer' (It's all I have to give you, woman). The song encapsulates the essence of a love that is unconventional, honest, and fiercely independent.
