Rauw Alejandro’s Surprises in ‘Déjame Entrar’: English Lyrics

The Puerto Rican artist is back with a new single that demonstrates his versatility

Archivado en: Rauw Alejandro  •  

The Latin music scene is always changing, and Rauw Alejandro, the Puerto Rican singer and songwriter, is leading the way. With his recent Latin GRAMMY win and four GRAMMY nominations, Rauw has shown he’s a major player in the music industry.

Now, he’s back with a new single, «Déjame Entrar,» that really shows off his versatility. The song is a vibrant mix of Latin sounds, Afro Beat, Reggaeton, and Dancehall. Also, the Puerto Rican has two big surprises with this release, and both are revealed in his music video. The first one is that in the video features a special appearance by Oscar winner Adrien Brody and shows Rauw exploring New York’s equestrian culture.

Directed by Martin Seipel and produced by ABSNT, the video premiered on MTV Live, MTVU, MTV Flow Latino, and on Paramount billboards in Times Square, showcasing Alejandro’s wide reach and popularity. The other surprise comes in a scene where he impresses us with his dance moves, and in the background, you can see a sign that reads: ‘Cosa Nuestra – Fall 2024.’ Could this be his new studio album? It sure looks like it.

«DÉJAME ENTRAR» English Lyrics

For a while, I wanted to talk to her (Ra-Rauw)
And now she’s right in front of me (In front of me; oh)
Hold me back because I don’t want to rush, no
I’m getting to know her (Eh, eh)

I can’t figure out what her mind is saying
But her body wants something different
When she gets close to me, she’s not so innocent anymore
And I want to put it all on her only if she lets me

I get desperate,
What’s stopping you?
You start first,
How do you prefer it?

Baby, how do I tell her she was my crush?
If you’re horny, I’ll come over in a rush
Earring in my bed, she got a royal flush
We change positions, and she asks for it fiercely
We’ve been smoking all day (Oh-oh)
The day is nice to be outside
But I prefer to be with you in the bathtub (Yah!)

I can’t figure out what her mind is saying
But her body wants something different
When she gets close to me, she’s not so innocent anymore
And I want to put it all on her only if she lets me

I get desperate,
What’s stopping you?
You start first,
How do you prefer it?

Baby, I hope we’re together until next summer
I don’t know about tomorrow, but today let’s keep going where we are
From the sun to the sky, you are the closest thing
For you, I only get up early

Pre-Pre-Pre-Pre-Pre-Pre-Light it up, inhale, pass it (Hey)
Baby (Ow), dance, let’s see what happens, let’s see what happens
Pre-Pre-Pre-Pre-Pre-Pre-Light it up (Oh-oh), sit on my lap (Yih!)
The bus is full, and you’re coming home, yeah (I can’t figure out—)
