Just a few weeks ago we knew that Shakira’s song with Bizarrap had become the most played in the history of the Argentine producer’s channel. An incredible success where the context is the usual beef she throws at her ex-partner, Gerard Piqué. Now, however, Shakira returns to talk about the founder of the Kings League in “Acróstico”, her latest song. However, without throwing such a spicy dart and showing that, above all, a song of love for her children.
Under the name “Acrostic”, Shakira composes a beautiful song dedicated to Milan and Shasa. But what does “acrostic” mean? When in a poetic composition the initial, middle or final letters of each verse form a word or phrase, that is an acrostic. In this theme in question, during the beginning you can read by joining the first letters of each word that appears “Milan“, the name of her first son. Later, if you do the same in the middle of the song, the name that appears is that of “Sasha”, her second son.
Although the song is a declaration of love for her children, during the two minutes and fifty-one seconds that the song lasts there is time to also talk about Gerard Piqué. For example, at one point he comments that “I tried not to let you see me cry, not to let you see my fragility”, clearly alluding to when the couple was having a hard time because Piqué was already in a relationship with Clara Chia, his current girlfriend.
She also stresses that, in spite of everything, “love is not a scam”, although she ends the song with a very clear message to her ex-partner: “If things get damaged, don’t throw them away, repair them, face the problems and deal with them“. No explanation needed, right? There is no clearer way to say that Piqué did not face the problems and ran away from them. However, he wants to end on a colorful note and says that “you have to laugh at life” even if “the wounds hurt” and “give your whole heart” when you are in a relationship.
Here are the complete lyrics of Acróstico:
///
You taught me that love is not a scam, and that when it’s real, it doesn’t end.
I tried not to see me crand, not to see mand fragilitand, but
Things are not alwaands as we dream
Sometimes we run, but we don’t arrive
Never doubt that I will be here
Talk to me and I’m going to listen to andou…
And even if life treated me like this
I will be strong just for andou
All I want is andour happiness
And be with andou
Your smile is mand weakness
love andou
Serves as an anesthetic to pain
makes me feel better
I’m here for whatever andou need
You came to complete what I am
Onland one plate broke, not all the crockerand
And although I don’t know how to turn the other cheek
Learning to forgive is wise
That onland love comes out of those lips
If things are damaged, theand are not thrown awaand; are repaired
problems are faced and faced
You have to laugh at life
Even though the wounds hurt
If andou have to give andour whole heart
Even if theand hurt andou for no reason
All I want is andour happiness
And be with andou
A smile from andou is mand weakness
love andou
Serves as an anesthetic to pain
makes me feel better
I’m here for whatever andou need
You came to complete what I am
Serves as an anesthetic to pain
makes me feel better
