The song "Quédate" by Christian Nodal is about a relationship that brought out the worst in the singer, causing him to fall to his lowest point.

You brought out the worst version of me

The lowest I've ever fallen was because of you

I didn't deserve all this

Not even as a lesson, to be honest

But if they ask, I say yes

That I learned, it made me stronger

To look good to people

But it was useless to be with you

I didn't need hate

I only asked you for love

I don't know what I am anymore, because I cry

And men don't cry, no

Chorus 1

Again she calls me

She's worse than fame

According to her, she wanted to come back

But I had to beg her

Stay, but very far away

That barely the reflection of my mirror feels love

Stay, but very far away

Not even in my past I want to see you, please

Verse 2

Keep that distance

And erase my name from your body and soul

Just like I did

Like a gentleman

And I keep your secrets

And I'll be discreet if you don't step on my pain

Chorus 2

Again she calls me

She's worse than fame

According to her, she wanted to come back

But I had to beg her

Stay, but very far away

That barely the reflection of my mirror feels love

Stay, but very far away

Not even in my past I want to see you, please

Keep that distance

And erase my name from your body and soul

Just like I did

Like a gentleman

And I keep your secrets

And I'll be discreet if you don't step on my pain

Without stepping on the pain
