The English Lyrics to Karol G & Shakira’s ‘TQG’

KAROL G

Whoever told you that a void is filled with another person is lying to you

It’s like covering up a wound with makeup

You can’t see it, but you can feel it

You left saying you got over me

And you got yourself a new girlfriend

What she doesn’t know is that you’re still looking at all my stories

CHORUS

Baby, what happened?

Thought you were very in love?

What are you doing looking for me, honey

If you know that I don’t repeat mistakes

Tell your new bae that I don’t compete for men

And to stop grudging, at least I had you pretty

SHAKIRA

Seeing you with the new girl hurt me, but I’m now set on me

I’ve forgotten what we lived together, and that’s what you’re offended by

And even my life got better, you are no longer welcome here

And what your girlfriend slayed at me, that doesn’t anger me, it makes me laugh

KAROL G

I don’t have time for something that doesn’t do anything for me

I changed my route

Making money like sport

Filling my bank account with shows, the car park, the passport

I’m harder, the press reviews say

SHAKIRA

Now you want to come back to me, it shows

Hold on, I’m no fool

KAROL G

You forgot that I’ve moved on

And that this Bichota was too hot for you to handle

CHORUS

Baby, what happened?

Thought you were very in love?

What are you doing looking for me, honey

If you know that I don’t repeat mistakes

Tell your new bae that I don’t compete for men

And to stop grudging, at least I had you pretty

SHAKIRA

You left, and I wen’t triple ‘m’

Much hotter, much tougher, much more class

KAROL G

Getting back with you, never

You are the bad luck

Because now blessings are raining down on me

And you want to get back together, I knew it

You liked a photo of mine

SHAKIRA

You, looking to eat out

Me, saying that it was monotony

And you want to come back, I knew that much

‘Liking’ my photos

Now you’re outside searching for food

KAROL G

You look happy with your new life

But… if she knew that you still look for me

CHORUS

Baby, what happened?

Thought you were very in love?

What are you doing looking for me, honey

If you know that I don’t repeat mistakes

Tell your new bae that I don’t compete for men

She didn’t have a good hand on you, at least I had you pretty

SPOKEN

My love, you really distanced yourself

And I can’t see so far away, baby

TQM [I love you a lot], but TQG [You were out of your depth]… Barranquilla, Medallo
