Verse 1

When you're good, you walk away from me

You feel alone and I'm always there

It's a war of take and give

Then give me what you got there

Hey baby don't be bad

Don't leave me with these desires

Or: Don't leave me wanting

It's heard on the street that you don't want me anymore

Or: You can hear on the street that you no longer love me

Come and tell me to my face

Prechorus 1

Ask whoever you want

Life, I swear that it's not like this

Or: Love, I swear that it's not like that

I never had a bad intention

I never wanted to make fun of you

With me you see, you never know

One day I say no and another yes

I'm a masochist

With my body, an egoist

Or: Selfish with my body

Chorus 1

You are pure, pure blackmail, pure, pure blackmail

It's always your way

I want you even if I don't want to

You are pure, pure blackmail, pure, pure blackmail

You're free like the air

I'm not yours nor anyones

Verse 2

How you tempt me when you move

That sexy move always entertains me

You know how to manipulate me well with your hips

I don't know why you have me on the waiting list

They tell you out there what I'm doing and undoing

That I go out every night, that I have you there suffering

That in this relationship I'm the one who commands

Don’t pay attention to all that bad propaganda

No pares bola is an expression meaning don't mind it / don't pay attention to it

Why tell you anything, they eat your ear

Te comen el oído is an expression meaning that they are speaking in your ear trying to convince you something

Don't go to straighten what hasn't been twisted

Or less literally: Don't go looking for the truth when I didn't lie to you

And like a madman I continue after you, dying for you

Tell me what is there for me, babe, what?

Or: Tell me what's in it for me, baby, what?

Prechorus 2

Ask whoever you want

Life, I swear that it's not like this

I never had a bad intention

I never wanted to make fun of you

With me you see, you never know

One day I say no and another yes

I'm a masochist

With my body, an egoist

Chorus 2

You are pure, pure blackmail, pure, pure blackmail

It's always your way

I want you even if I don't want to

You are pure, pure blackmail, pure, pure blackmail

You're free like the air

I'm not yours nor anyones

With my body, an egoist

Chorus 3

You are pure, pure blackmail, pure, pure blackmail

It's always your way

I want you even if I don't want to

You are pure, pure blackmail, pure, pure blackmail

You're free like the air

I'm not yours nor anyones
