Rencor

In 'Rencor,' Poyo Segovia delves into the complex emotions surrounding the end of a tumultuous relationship. The song's lyrics reveal a narrative of someone who has decided to move on from a partner who has caused them significant pain. The protagonist is not seeking to display indifference or to burden their ex with guilt; instead, they are focused on finding happiness without them. This decision is underscored by a sense of self-respect and a desire for personal growth, as they reject the notion of dependency that their ex seems to believe in.

The repeated lines about the ex's 'basta inteligencia' (vast intelligence) and the protagonist's laughter at the idea of their own dependency highlight a dynamic where the ex-partner is perhaps condescending or manipulative. The protagonist's struggle to convey their desire to end the relationship, despite the difficulty of doing so, speaks to the emotional complexity of breaking free from someone who has been a significant part of their life. The phrase 'perderte cuesta' (losing you is hard) encapsulates this bittersweet liberation.

The chorus emphasizes the protagonist's resolve to move on, even if it means dealing with lingering resentment ('rencor'). They acknowledge their own mistakes and ask for forgiveness, but they also make it clear that they have paid for their errors and are ready to leave the past behind. The declaration that the ex will regret their actions and the promise of retribution ('ahora lo vas a pagar') add a layer of vindication to the song. This mix of regret, anger, and determination paints a vivid picture of someone reclaiming their life and self-worth after a painful relationship.
