OMAY sings KUIKI, written by Daweny Neftaly Peralta Fabian. The music features a deceptively upbeat rhythm with raw confession of post-breakup weakness. Daweny Neptaly Peralta Fabian composed the song with FiRe, Neverknwn, and SokeThugPro. The song explores the messy aftermath of a separation.
Daweny Neftaly Peralta Fabian writes about masculine stereotypes, asking “how can men not cry when there’s a heart under the chest.” He mentions forgetting he is now “the ex” after drunken phone calls to his former lover. The lyricist explores the internal conflict between acknowledging mistakes and being unable to let go emotionally.
Que Me Perdone Mi ExI hope my ex forgives me,
Pero Para Ser Yo Tuve Que Irme SolitoBut to find myself, I had to leave all alone.
Pude Hacerlo Mejor Solo Que Era Un LokitoI could’ve done better, I was just a ‘lokito’ ‘crazy kid’,
Pero Tu LokitoBut I was your ‘crazy kid’.
Me Pone Feliz Pensar En Que Va A VolverThinking she’ll come back makes me happy,
Dicen Que El Hombre No LloraThey say that men don’t cry,
Pero Como Que NoBut how can that be,
Si Debajo Del Pecho Esta El CoraWhen there’s a heart ‘cora’ right under my chest?
Y En Despecho Me Paso PensandoIn my ‘despecho’ ‘spiteful heartache’, I spend my time thinking,
En Con Quien Estas AhoraAbout who you’re with right now,
A Quien Amas AhoraWho you’re loving now,
Pa’ Joderte La BodaJust to ruin your wedding.
